The Junk Shop is a 1965 Czechoslovak comedic short film directed by Juraj Herz, based on a story by Bohumil Hrabal called Baron Prasil. The film follows a group of comical patrons and shopkeepers at a local junk shop, including Václav Halama as Hanta, the titular character, and František Ketzek as Bohoušek, his straight-laced boss. The cast is largely non-professional actors, and the film showcases Herz's knack for bizarre and disquieting visuals, a trait that would become prominent throughout his career.
