The Hyperbole

"Danny Plotnick's short films are a super-laugh stone groove riot fest. And they're very intelligent. As formal exercises in control and comedy, Plotnick's films approach the Marx Brothers. As set-ups, the films are almost up there with Andy Kaufman. In execution, the work is a zillion times funnier than the SNL news desk." -Raygun Magazine

"Plotnick's penchant for irreverent goofiness and stunning send-ups of American pop culture limns the edges of high and low, and this may be part of his success in generating lively audiences." -Filmmaker Magazine

"Plotnick's films are are the work of a truly DIY spirit, dating back to the predawn of the digital revolution. They're emblematic of a time and place where indie rock and microcinema ruled the day, when folks emerged from their basements to surprise us with handmade works to tour and trade. Plotnick's films are funny and fun, not entirely serious, but very important." -Kendra Gaeta, Festival Director, New York Underground Film Festival.

"Danny Plotnick has been cranking out his weird and wonderful productions since the mid-'80's." -Shock Cinema

"Over the course of his career, small-gauge daredevil Danny Plotnick has entertained, stunned and offended audiences at countless alternative spaces and festivals coast to coast." -SF Weekly

"Hyperbolic and Waggy." -SF Bay Guardian

"Danny Plotnick's Out of Print is a four-minute testimonial that should be placed in a time capsule."-SF Bay Guardian
