“After four years in a coma, Eugene Pratt is going to be reunited with his high school sweetheart… on pages 95-97.” Producer’s synopsis: “A young man awakens from a four-year coma to hear that his once virginal high-school sweetheart has since become a centerfold in one of the world’s most famous men’s magazines. He and his sex-crazed best friend decide to take a cross-country road trip in order to crash a party at the magazine’s legendary mansion headquarters and win back the girl.” NOTE: Due to this film’s vulgar content, extensive nudity, MPAA warning and blatantly anti-Biblical message, it is NOT recommended by Christian Spotlight and will not be reviewed.

—Meredith Whitmore, PluggedIn …As the straight-man virgin, Cregger is almost entirely devoid of personality; as his hyperkinetic sidekick, Moore may have the most unlikable personality in movie history. Together they’re traffickers in the comedy of human degradation, mining every bit of feces, every splat of vomit, every bout of epilepsy, every atrophied muscle, every moment of personal humiliation in the desperate search for a laugh from the confused 13-year-old boy who dwells somewhere deep in the soul of every grown male.… [0/5]
