The Heisters

NR 1965 · 10 min · ★ 6.5 · Comedy, Crime

The teenage Tobe Hooper’s first film was a slapstick comedy. This farcical low-budget short is about three thieves who are wanted dead or alive. A bit Three Stooges, a bit Chaplin and a bit Keaton!

Directed by Tobe Hooper · Written by Tobe Hooper
