In short, The Singing Knives might be best described as: Quentin Tarantino, David Lynch and Jim Jarmusch collaborate to direct and write a script for a psychological thriller about fishing, hunting and butchering starring the cast of the grown up little rascals who have matured into bloodthirsty criminals.

–Victor Schnickelfritz in The Great American Pinup

–James Wright
