Parody films will eventually start to outnumber original films at this rate, it appears the teen sex comedy has been spoofed in Extreme Movie. We get the scoop today from the WEBMASTER at filmjunk:
Extreme Movie “follows a group of high school geeks on their journey through the joys and embarrassments of teen sex… but mostly the embarrassments”. Now, at this point it would seem to be a low brow parody of recent teenage sex comedies, and considering the directors Adam Jay Epstein and Andrew Jacobson also wrote Not Another Teen Movie, there’s no reason to think otherwise. However, let’s take a look at the long list of writers involved in this; among them: Lonely Island members Andy Samberg, Akiva Schaffer and Jorma Taccone, and Clone High writers Erica Rivinoja, Phil Lord, and Chris Miller.
The weirdest thing of all is that the movie appears to be going direct to video in the near future. Amazon says Dimension Extreme will be releasing it on April 1st.
Because this is going straight to DVD, there is a good chance I will never see this. I do not particularly fancy spoof films, and the teenage sex comedy is spoof enough. With so many writers on board, I would have preferred if they just wrote an original high school hump film. The direct to DVD film is now commonplace and we will see all sorts starting to flood the bins at our supermarkets and video stores.
It could be fun sifting through the direct to DVD films and reviewing them, but the idea is not quite tempting enough to motivate me. I just do not think the risk is worth the reward. I do not know why they keep using the word “movie” in all the spoof films. It is really tired, you could have called this Dry Hump High or Jailbait Vandals, a host of names but they have settles on the stale and the uninspiring.
If you get a chance to see this – feel free to send us a heads up.
