A creative-writing teacher in Laugh Killer Laugh instructs his students to fictionalize their own personal experiences. For sad-sack second-story man Frank Stone (William Forsythe), that means exposing his criminal activity and Mob connections under a pseudonym. For writer-director Kamal Ahmed, it seems to mean trying to wring drops of entertainment from hours spent in writing workshops. It doesn't work out well for either of them.

All due respect to "Mad TV" and "Dirty Work" fans, but for this writer Artie Lange's greatest performance will always be his eight-year run on "The Howard Stern Show." From 2001 to 2009, the gravelly-voiced comedian worked as the King of All Media's brash, no-nonsense, fan-beloved sidekick, a role that brought him his greatest career success ("It was the closest I ever felt to being a rock star") but also brought his personal demons to the fore. His stint on the show came to an abrupt and chilling end in January 2010, when Lange, at that time addicted to heroin, was hospitalized for eight months following a suicide attempt (an episode he has discussed publicly and wrote about in his 2013 memoir "Crash and Burn"). Five years on from his terrifying downward spiral, Lange has rebounded and continues to work, performing standup gigs and making guest appearances on TV shows including "Louie" and Californication.

Tom Sizemore and William Forsythe star in Kamal Ahmed's crime thriller Laugh Killer Laugh. TwitchFilm has an exclusive clip to share with you, which you can watch below, as well as the trailer for further reference. A Jewel thief named Frank Stone is a very deeply disturbed, anti social, milquetoast who finds no joy or humor in anything - until he awakens from a deep coma with a changed personality. I love that the dialogue in this clip sounds like it was taken from the Little Boys Lexicon of Gangster Grammar. You can catch Laugh Killer Laugh in cinemas, and on VOD and iTunes on April 24th. ...
