Synopsis: While preaching door to door the love of Jesus, Joe Young (Parker) will reluctantly become the hero of a cheap pornographic movie.
Review: I discovered this movie at the end of my period of attraction for parodies (Naked Gun, Airplane, Hot Shot...) and at the time I was liking the dumb humour (Dodgeball, BASEketball, Dumb & Dumber, Dude where is my car?). I have seen it several times in the past but I didn't remember it looked so cheap, and the very poor quality of this DVD edition doesn't help. In spite of that, the story is crazy as only Parker and Stone (creators of South Park) can deliver it, and the juxtaposition of the Mormon Joe with the world of pornography is prone to laughs. Add to this the sidekick Chodaboy, creator of the real Orgazmo-ray, apparitions by ex-porn stars like Ron Jeremy and Chasey Lane, and the ridiculousness of the porn shooting that will however make it more successfull than E.T. (!!!) and you get a dumb comedy fun to watch with friends accompanied with beer and pizza. In a similar spirit you can also watch Zack and Miri make a Porn by Kevin Smith (Dogma, Red State) and Flesh Gordon, parody of Flash Gordon that also includes some kind of Orgazmo-ray.
