Dudes, SNAPPER is hilarious! I'm sorry, but SNAPPER PROGENY was crap. Compassion for the turtle? Come on! - TREY
I think SNAPPER PROGENY is a great teaser for the terrible events that we know it will lead into! This guy's just setting himself up for a bad end. - RINGMASTER
My dad was the one that purchased it to Arkansas and I have to say I loved it! Send me an email when the new one is coming out. - AARON
I watched SNAPPER recently and laughed rather a alot. There were two great gags in there. The first was where the two gentlemen are fishing and the one says, "My god. That was a good cast." It sounded so sincere, as though commenting on that cast was more important than ANYthing he could have been talking about. "I think I hit my nuts on a rock" was a great line. I don't know that I've ever heard that particular collection of words in that order before. It was an interesting twist on a cliche line. "A rock hit my nuts" would be commonplace, even boring, one might say, "Bob Sagetesque"; but by simply twisting the order of the words, you've brought new life into that joke. Also the delivery and the timing were spectacular, as though it were scripted and rehearsed. One final thought, it pays to be really fried when you watch it. I finally got 'round to watching all of SNAPPER REVENGE which contains one of the very best fight sequences ever recorded involving a cardboard turtle. I laughed rather a lot, which is saying something given the fact that I was sober when I watched it. And of course, "It took my balls!" A more classic line there isn't. - ASTROCOMICAL
SNAPPER is one of the best bad movies I have ever seen or been a part of. The cardboard and duct tape turtle is of the highest artistic standards (Momma, he ain't got no hind legs!). The audio and video precision granted by a VHS camcorder are excellent. And the acting itself, well, I think it's obvious the level of thought and preparation that went into the dialogue. And of course being the physical specimens that we are, all stunt work was done by us. Utter stupidity? Drunken tomfoolery? Comic genius? You be the judge. So do yourself a favor and pick up a copy of this movie. You'll be so glad you did. And if nothing else, the disc makes for a handsome beer coaster. And the case can be used as a hiding place for that freaky fetish porno that you want no one to know you possess. You know the one - with the livestock and midgets and key lime pie, you nasty sicko. - KEVIN
Guys, I must say that is one of the funniest movies, SNAPPER & SNAPPER REVENGE, I've ever seen. We will have to collaborate on a movie real soon between our characters. Can't wait for the third installment - DARION X
Guys, I wanna let you know how amazingly great that was! Great Laugh, and cheap humor. I loved it all! Guys if you want a "celebrity" to star in a Snapper film...have my Agent Shannon get in touch with me. - ARYKH
I get a kick out of SNAPPER...I'm going to watch SNAPPER REVENGE asap. - RAIETH
Ah, SNAPPER. A film that changed my life. I laughed. I cried. It became a part of me. The epic story of man against beast. What else could you want from a film? The subtle special effects and use of cardboard are astounding. No CGI here. The only better use of a turtle is "Gamera" and maybe "Bermuda Depths". This is a film to be seen and loved. If only there were plush toys to give to my kids. God bless the people responsible for "Snapper"! I only hope that the DVD does well and maybe, one day, we will see "Son of Snapper". SNAPPER is amazing. It is amazing what you can do with cardboard, a couple of friends, no budget, and time to kill one afternoon. It is a must see short film. You must see it while inebriated and plenty of friends are around to laugh-their-asses-off with you. SNAPPER is a work of art that will one day be a cult classic. I am sure that it is viewing material at several cults right now. And if you watch it, you will think about joining or maybe starting one. I cannot say enough things about this movie. It is well worth the price! Buy one! Hell, buy a bunch and give them to friends and family. The holidays are coming. Buy a whole crap load and decorate the tree with them this year! Seriously, it is worth seeing. - DUPEY
We got SNAPPER yesterday. I laughed my ass off!! Butchmule was cracking up too. At least I can say I knew you way back when the E! channel does your 'true hollywood story.' It was so cool to watch. The dvd packaging looked great. Are you making a cameo in SON OF SNAPPER? I think you should. Thanks for sending it to us. Have a good weekend. - BERE
I just finished watching my Promo DVD of SNAPPER with a splash of SNAPPER REVENGE and I must say it sped right past stupid and straight into Funny as shit. You can't help but burst into laughter... - MEATHEAD
SNAPPER is a film that plays on a primal childhood fear of mine, namely that a giant snapping turtle will burst out of a pile of nearby leaves and take a big bite out of my nuts. I'm unsure if it finally made it into a film because it is a widely held fear, or, merely just a coincidence, but it is a bit worrisome nonetheless. Disclaimers abound on the SNAPPER site and in the liner notes of the film that the film is not to be taken seriously, but with my turtle-nard munching phobia, I cannot help but take it as such. They also stress that it is not a good film, but I would argue that I could go to my DVD shelves and point to many a film that is worse. Many of these with much larger budgets than $5. SNAPPER manages to be both funny and terrifying to me at the same time. It gives you just enough time to begin feeling for the two fishermen before the carnage begins. I'm looking forward to SNAPPER REVENGE quite a bit, and I can only hope that down the road there will be such sequels as Son of Snapper, Bride of Snapper, and perhaps Curse of Snapper. Excellent use of a cardboard puppet. – FILTHY HIPPY
A true masterpiece of cinema arrived in my mailbox today...SNAPPER…I smell Oscar...I also smell..."a true majestic turd of a short film" Go get it now!!! - BITTER
Honestly, I did not know what to expect when I received my SNAPPER DVD, and I must say that I was not prepared for such an involved story. A story full of friendship and pain, terror and life struggle. The story begins simple enough, Kevin and Dave simply want to go on a fishing trip. But the simplicity soon ends as this trip turns into a fight for survival, and eventually costs them their lives. Snapper covers many genres of the theatrical field. With a mixture of The Blair Witch Project, Jaws, and Beavis and Butthead, these are lines that have clearly never been crossed. Few dare to tackle such a challenge. But with complex characters- Kevin, with the ever itchy butt, and Dave, with his inability to smoke a cigarette correctly, you are drawn in by the realness. If I were rating, I would give this movie 5 turds out of 5, but there is a burning question I can't get out of my mind that I'm afraid may never be answered - Who gets Kevin's fishing pole now that he's dead? Maybe this will be covered in the sequel, or the sure-to-be-coming prequel, I don't know, but for now - Remember...the next time you're camping, boating at the lake, or peeing off a pier, be careful. SNAPPER is out there, lurking, waiting for you to come near the water. I urge to you to think twice. Please.....be careful what you fish for... - KRIS
I thought it was excellent, excellent stuff. I applaud your efforts, sir...It's 11 minutes of hilarity. I laughed out loud. To me, that's the highest compliment one can give. - TOMMY
lol...SNAPPER was really scary... and to think that they actually, really for truly found SNAPPER! , it is like scaring the hell out of me...we need a posse... - JORDAN
SNAPPER kicked ass. I will be sure to spread the word about SNAPPER and how retarded it actually is. - SHANNON
Personally, I loved the SNAPPER short film. It's a laugh riot. Definitely worth the price of FREE. I hope those promo DVD's found good homes. - SKYCRY
God bless the makers of SNAPPER, bringing light to a member of the turtle family that is often forgotten and misunderstood. I must honestly say that I enjoyed this work of art that you guys did shit upon the earth. And it gets better and funnier with every viewing, as I try to spread the word. Thanks for the movie, guys --- a worthy addition to my collection! I laughed, I cried, and I took a nice shit afterwards. See you at the Oscars! - JAMIE
Ah SNAPPER.... My life was going well before I got involved in making this piece of crap. Since then I've lost my house, my fiance' and was forced to move from Knoxville!! All because of the 'joys' of being in this movie!! It's good to know you guys are making millions pimping out this retarded bitch!! I hope you rot in Hell.... Just kidding!! SNAPPER is fantastic!! Order it, buy it, make love to it!! JUST GET IT!! You will not be sorry!! Well, you might be!! - DAVE
