Released in 2006, the story is set in 1994 and The Handy Kaufmans, New Jersey's foremost underachieving rock band, are about to embark on one final tour. Either they make it big this time, or they resign themselves to a life of 9-to-5 mediocrity.
Lee (CHRISTIAN CAMPBELL, Trick), their drummer, is a control freak and being pushed out by his retiring parents (MARK HAMILL, Star Wars; SALLY KIRKLAND, Anna). Donnie (J.P. PITOC, Trick, Six Feet Under), lead singer and compulsive lothario, and Big Frank (JAY LEGGETT, Ally McBeal), the incompetent but gold-hearted manager, are always causing trouble. Mike (SCOTT BURKHARDT), the chief songwriter, tries to emulate the tortured-artist lifestyle of the icons he idolizes. While their bassist, Jim (BRET DOMROSE, Dogstar), electrocutes himself in a drunken pissing contest, the band is joined by last-minute replacement Trixie (LARA BOYD RHODES, Lava Lounge), a wild beauty and bassist who sparks up Lee's dormant romantic instincts. Will they be able to overcome themselves in their quest to make it to the final gig? It is there, at a huge "state" fair, that Lee hopes a powerful and elusive record company executive will attend their rockin' performance. Join the Handy Kaufmans as they take a tour of fun, hijinxs, and heart on the road in this high-spirited independent rock n' roll comedy.
Soundtrack includes original Handy Kaufmans tunes (written by Andre Devon Magone, Robert Zimmer, and Chuck Griffith) and featuring Original Score by Christopher Hoag.

Pitoc deliver some award winning performances in this movie. I also think Christian Campbell was great!
Hollywood Shuffle was an incredible movie! Both Gregory 'Popeye' Alexander and Sena Ayn Black were amazing! The great cast includes Gregory 'Popeye' Alexander, Sena Ayn Black, Conni Marie Brazelton, Sarah Kaite Coughlan, Starletta DuPois.
If you love watching Gregory 'Popeye' Alexander or Sena Ayn Black, you are deffinetly going to want to watch Hollywood Shuffle.
The best example of urban guerilla filmmaking is ironicallyand happilyalso one of Hollywood'smost triumphant success stories. Actor Robert Townsend (I'm Gonna Git You Sucka!), decrying the lack of good roles for black actors, puts his money where his mouth is and co-scripts (with Keenen Ivory Wayans), directs and stars in this "exuberant, tirelessly energetic, funny, appealingly mean-spirited and easy-to-like" comedy (Janet Maslin, The New York Times) that took Tinseltown by storm! Actor wannabe Bobby Taylor (Townsend) dreams of landing a role any role. But in a town where the best black roles are usually jive-talkin' gangsta stereotypes, Bobby learns that you have to make your own partseven if they're just in your head. Spoofing everything from Michael Jackson's "Thriller" and Eddie Murphy to Siskel & Ebert, Bobby's vivid imaginationand Hollywood Shuffleare "an exhilarating blast" (New York)!
