synopsis
The man behind such hits as Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls, The Nutty Professor, and Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius, Steve Oedekerk seems to also have a thing for thumbs, as apparent by his series of short-subject movie parodies with casts completely comprised of the digits. This time around, Oedekerk and company take aim at Tim Burton's gothic, comic-book epic Batman. Released in 2001, Bat Thumb joins such other titles as Thumbtanic and Thumb Wars: The Phantom Cuticle.
