Penn & Teller Get Killed

Penn amp Teller Get Killed is a 1989 black comedy film directed by Arthur Penn starring the magicians Penn amp Teller. The duo play themselves, in a satirical account of what the audience would perhaps imagine the pair doing in their daily lives. Most of the action involves Penn and Teller playing practical jokes on each other along with Penns girlfriend, Carlotta Caitlin Clarke. The final joke, as the title of the film implies, has serious consequences for all three. It was the last feature film directed by Arthur Penn, and received mostly negative reviews from critics.

Penn and Teller get to tour his bizarre apartment turned Penn amp Teller shrine. Teller innocuously disposes of his gun in a trashcan of the apartment. Shortly after MacNamara departs, Penn is stabbed in the stomach by an assailant on the street. Penn rushes off to hospital where, once Teller is out of sight, he appears perfectly fine. Teller proceeds to pursue the wouldbe assassin in a peculiar chase scene back to the apartment.The madman, dressed as Penn, forces Teller to enact a Penn amp Teller routine with him, hanging in gravity boots in front of a camera. He then uses duct tape to secure the hapless Teller to the gravity boot rig. Officer MacNamara returns and the assassin leaves to finish off Penn.
