Have you ever wondered what would happen if the words "moose" and "cock" were to suddenly come together to form a new word? This hard-hitting short film probes the possibilities.

An Instant Classic. Saw this in San Francisco and loved it. If "Moosecock" isn't the greatest short film ever made, it's at least the greatest short that involves sewing a "unit" to a cow costume. Look out for these guys in the comedy thrones of tomorrow. Through a "short film within a short film" narrative, Will and his team have crafted a tale of artistic passion and heartache. I couldn't help seeing the influence of the classic film "Amadeus" displayed all through the story arc. In fact, this film was like Amadeus, the works of William Shakespeare and the Holy Bible all rolled into one (with some Kafka sprinkled in for good measure). Can't wait for the sequel "Yak Dong" which I hear stars Meryl Streep and Kenneth Branaugh. In all seriousness, if you get a chance to see this clever little masterpiece, do.

I just discovered that I LOVES me some Moosecock! Saw this short film at Big Bear Lake Intl. Film Fest (an appropriate woodsy local for Moosecock), and had a ball with it (oh boy, here come the puns). No, seriously, like moose cock, comedy IS hard, but Mr. Hartman makes this hilarious satire on "the making of" a Hollywood blockbuster look easy. And he packs in the laughs. There's a wonderfully timed and subtly played setup to this romp (with perfect dialogue), which totally had me going, until that damned Moosecock spun me in a very unexpected direction. I have to admit it; it felt good. YOU should definitely open your mind to the persuasive charms of Moosecock.

Now that's comedy! "You gotta feel it deep inside you!" Could be the next next "I see dead people." There were several laugh out loud moments that had the whole theater going. Funny, funny stuff. Nice editing, seemed like it had an original score. Nice touches here and there, like the posters in the background. Only thing I'd say is I wish the two guys in the opening had more scenes together, they are really dynamic together. Would like to know how much of what they did was scripted or improv because there was some great nuance there that showed somebody's talent, whether it was the actors or the director. But it's good writing, regardless. I look forward to the sequel--Mule Shlong. Or maybe Moosecock II: Still Hangin?

I have actually seen this film and it was quite funny. It is actually nothing that I would have never chose to watch out of the blue, but was played for me and made me laugh a bit. It is very rare for me to actually find that much humor out of boredom, but I suppose that the film was based on that. I wish that is was a type of film produced more often and made popular. Just wondering where I could actually purchase it, or if it is possible to do so. If it is possible to buy it I will myself and encourage others to do so also. It was an odd and interesting idea for the director to choose as a film. - good job kevin, you made me have a different view on films and life as well, but not just from this film, you know that- salut
