**By: Louisa Moore / www.ScreenZealots.com** It’s been a long, long time since I have laughed as heartily at a film as I did when I watched “Onyx the Fortuitous and the Talisman of Souls,” an absolutely hysterical project from start to finish. Based on a viral internet character created by writer, director, and star Andrew Bowser and financed by a Kickstarter campaign, all signs point to something disastrous that should be a completely terrible stinker at best and thoroughly unwatchable at worst. But there’s magic afoot here, and this surreal, cartoonish, and goofy movie is destined to become a cult classic among midnight audiences. Satanist Marcus J. Trillbury, aka Onyx, (Bowser) works the grill at the town’s local fast food joint. He knows that he’s destined for something greater, a feeling that becomes reality when he gets some surprise news: a personal invitation to Bartok the Great’s (Jeffrey Combs) dark mansion, where he will participate in a special ritual along with four other carefully chosen souls. Blinded by the excitement of meeting his idol, it takes Onyx and his new friends a bit longer than it should for them to realize the intentions of their host and his assistant

A viral internet character - who I was unaware of - in a feature-length film? I dunno. But the unique comedy, silly fantastical story & amusing makeup/costumes were right up my alley! More heart than I expected." Rating: B-
