Knifeman (2025) Dances With Films New York 2026


KNIFEMAN is  trip. A film that begins as a goofy story of an IRS agent with a kaiju superhero secret identity... or not.

This film kind of blew me away. Why hasn't anyone gone here before? This is a small scale gem that proves what you need to really wow an audience is to simply tell a great story. KNIFEMAN tells a great story and it perfectly modulates the shifting tones of the film. I audibly reacted at the flip. I have to applaud director MP Hayes and his crew at Missle Range Productions for understanding their assignment and turning out a wonderful film that grabs us, holds us and makes us want to see more.

Bravo.

I honestly have to say that being flooded with too many shorts  for too many start of the year festivals, it's great to see a gem like this hidden in a pile of stones

I want to see what Hayes and his crew do when they move on to a feature.

KNIFEMAN is one the great finds at this year's Dances with FIlms New York and is recommended.
