horizontal line

Filmmakers Ron Howard, Ted Demme, Nick Cassavetes, and Peter Bogdanovich make cameo appearances in this hilarious, wacky, irreverent, delightfully corny, tongue-in-cheek, star-studded (Ben Stiller, Anne Meara, Andy Dick, Fred Dryer, et al.) 2002 mock documentary that shows outrageous outtakes from forgettable B-movies, including The Simplex Complex, Teenie Weenie Bikini Beach, Christ for the Defense, Cheerleaders Campus Massacre, Bald Justice, Whale of a Cop, The Whole Story of America, World War III II, Wrath of the Sabine Women, Kent State Nurses, What Planet Is This? (Oh My God, It's Earth), The Fox Chocolate Robot, Brothers Divided, Twelve Angry Men and a Baby, and The Eco Angels, from bankrupt, infamous, longtime, schlock indie movie producer (Jerry Stiller) as he struggles with his spray-tanned daughter (Janeane Garofalo) and loyal assistant (Max Perlich) to raise money through a retrospective of his films at a Nevada film festival in order to complete his latest film Ms. Kervorkian and to produce a bad taste, questionable musical about a singing serial killer (Larry Hankin).
