Epic Movie

M lsv

Starring
Kal Penn, Adam Campbell, Jennifer Coolidge

Director
Aaron Seltzer

Year
2007

Genre
Comedy

Synopsis
In this comedic satire of epic proportions starring Kal Penn, Jennifer Coolidge, Fred Willard, Jayma Mays and Crispin Glover, the warped writers of Scary Movie now set their parodic sights on the largest genre of them all: the big-budget, special effects-laden blockbuster franchise films.

The story centres on four not-so-young orphans: one reared by a curator at the Louvre (where an albino assassin lurks); another, a refugee from Mexican "libre" wrestling; the third a recent victim of snakes on her plane; and the fourth a "normal" resident of a mutant "X" community.

TRIVIA:
The band playing at the big party sequence is Eagles of Death Metal; Roscoe Lee Browne's last film; Crispin Glover plays Willy, a spoof of Johnny Depp's portrayal of Willy Wonka in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (2005). Glover and Depp previously worked together on two films, What's Eating Gilbert Grape (1993) and Dead Man (1995); the film was not screened for critics; when the White Bitch is on her MySpace page, it says she is listening to Fall Out Boy.
