So, 'White Knuckles' is this gritty little gem from 2004 that caught me off guard. It's Leo Scherman's first feature, and there's a really interesting blend of dark humor and crime thriller elements. The pacing keeps you guessing, almost like you’re in on the plan to poison the brother but not quite sure how it’ll unfold. The performances are raw, especially from the lead, who balances that desperation and darkly comedic edge quite well. The practical effects aren't over the top, but they serve the story nicely, adding to the film's unsettling atmosphere. It’s not your typical thriller, and the themes of familial betrayal and debt to the mafia add layers that make it distinctive. Definitely worth a watch for collectors who appreciate something a bit offbeat.
