This movie was very funny and allowed the viewer to see what goes on behind the scenes of Porn with a comic over tone you wouldn't believe. It's all in fun so if you are offended by sex and or religious natures don't watch this but if nothing offends you this movie will have you rolling on the floor as you see Trey Parker, of South Park fame, deal with Hollywood as Orgasmo with his sidekick Scrotum-boy. This movie is funny.

Trey Parker portrays Joe Young. Joe is an innocent enough young Mormon boy from Utah. All he wants to do is finish his Mission work in Los Angeles, and save his money so he can marry his beautiful fiance Lisa in the Temple. However, unknown to Joe he would become the Action, Adventure, Porno Star Orgazmo! With his faithful sidekick Choda Boy by his side, he will make the world safe from would be evil doers with his mighty 'Orgazmarator' a ray gun that brings you to a mighty orgasm!

Trey Parker and Matt Stone hit gold with this movie I think, and I'm very glad to see that it's going to be rereleased because at one time, the movie was completely out of print. I caught this movie on cable one late night after suffering from insomnia, and I was just floored with laughter. I laughed so hard, I passed out. This movie is great if you don't mind sexual humor. If you're an uptight person, then maybe you should just pass on this movie.

The acting, the directing, EVERYTHING in this movie was simply brilliant. And you can tell the Co Creators of South Park didn't have a huge budget, however they made it all work perfectly. This movie I think is far superior than just about any big budget comedy I've ever seen. And of course, you have to enjoy the "Now You're A Man" theme song that Trey Parker did for this movie...it will leave you in stitches!!

If you like South Park you will love this outrageous, yet brilliant spoof on superheroes and the adult film industry. Check out the drunken commentary as well.

Back in the old college days, a buddy of mine brought this film to my house because of my love for Cannibal! The Musical. I've always been a sucker for the "campy classic" flicks, but after a few minutes I was an Orgazmo fanatic. It has since become one of my most often recommended (and qouted in drunken stupors) films.

Clean cut Mormon Joe Young (Tom Hung) stumbles onto a porn shoot while on a LA mission by beating up a threatening bouncer. Seeing his skill, the film's director convinces him to star in it despite his trepidation, mainly since his royalties could pay for a good wedding to his equally clean cut girlfriend. Things get out of hand when his girlfriend visits him and discovers the truth. Throughout this plot development, we are blessed with countless outrageous sex-gags, porn star cameos, and Trey Parker's uncanny ability to make an audience laugh uncontrollably. The aforementioned, who wrote and directed Orgazmo, does a wonderful job of making such an entertaining movie while on-screen most of the time, and his supporting cast, including the poster-child of geekdom Dian Bachar, are equally great.

The DVD features some great extras, as well as the original NC-17 version and a new, uncut Unrated version that doesn't seem all too much different. Don't miss the multiple cast/crew commentaries, especially the drunken commentary recorded during a binge at Parker's home. Lastly, don't let the NC-17 rating throw you off: this movie should have an R rating, and kudos to the filmmakers for not justifying their material to suit the MPAA. 100% recommended and mandatory.

I love South Park, so naturally I wanted to check this out. I loved it!! Anyone who takes this movie seriously completely misses the whole idea. To sit and criticize how they depict Mormons or how they depict the Porn business just has no sense of humor. LIGHTEN UP PEOPLE! It's a great movie to watch if you just want a good laugh after a bad day, or have a bunch of friends over. One of the many things that is so great about Trey Parker and Matt Stone is their ridiculous humor and their complete disregard for the censors. If anyone has seen South Park, be it one episode in passing or a faithful fan, you know that their work ALWAYS pushes just a little past that line. So, in summation, this is the movie for anyone who loves bad taste, stupid humor, and, of course, porn stars.

Forget Baseketball. This is the best movie to come from the minds of the creators of South Park.

The premise of the movie is so ridiculous that it's funny. The acting is also so horribly overdone that you would have to laugh at it, even if you laughed at nothing else. Yet how can you not laugh at Choda Boy: a nerdy guy who gets into porn to be with beautiful women.

Choda Boy, off-screen, is really a technical wiz, who actually creates an orgazmarator (the "weapon" Joe Young uses as Orgazmo to render his foes helpless by, you guessed it, throwing them into an immediate state of orgasm). Choda Boy also has a dark and hidden past. He chooses to give up a karate technique called "Hampster Style", as he believes it to be far too dangerous to unleash even on his most dastardly enemies. He often dons a hat topped with a huge dildo and wears a porn-styles utility belt, equipped with *ock rocket, which he uses in his adventures as Orgazmo's sidekick.

Another hilarious character is played by Matt Stone. He is a set-hand for Max Orbison who tends to get over-excited on the set and call out hilarious obscenities. He also makes sexually questionable comments to Joe (Orgazmo) in between shoots, including "I don't want to sound gay or nothin, but I think Depeche Mode was a sweet band".

Orgazmo meets his arch nemesis, named A-Cup. A-Cup has no nads- and so Orgazmo's orgazmarator is useless against him. A-Cup is quite a character on and off-screen. He has the habit of farting on his co-stars and generally being a bastard.

This is one of those movies that most people comprising the general public won't "get" or appreciate. Yet for those of us who appreciate senseless humor, we have a cult classic on our hands.

When I first heard that Orgazmo was coming out on DVD I was really excited. Not only would I get a hilarious movie on DVD, but there would also be a ton of extra features. Unfortunately this disc turned out to be one of the worst special editions I've ever seen.

The box has unrated plastered across the top of it. Seeing this you might think that the unrated version of the movie (which is included on the disc with the NC-17 version) would have more foul language and skin. But instead it's just a different edit of the movie. Some character development scenes are missing and the opening is edited very differently. There are a couple bits of missing dialog in the DVDA scene, but the stuff in the theatrical version was funnier. I'd say stick with the theatrical version, it's a much better movie.

First up in terms of special features are the commentaries. The first with Trey Parker and Matt Stone being drunk was alright, but the audio was messed up throughout the whole thing. Sometimes you had to strain your ear to hear what they had to say. But this commentary is genius compared to the other two, which are two of the worst commentaries ever. The cast commentary has the same audio problems, but no one has anything interesting to say. If you like hearing a room of people try to talk over one another then this commentary is for you. The "wild" commentary seemed like a good idea, having people who had nothing to do with the movie talk about it. But instead we get Weird Al Yankovic not being funny, Dave Foley not being funny, and assorted others doing lame impersonations. The only good part was with Kevin Smith, but he's never even seen Orgazmo.

There are plenty of other features on the second side of the disc, but nothing really recommendable. There are 30 minutes of deleted scenes that are interesting but were right to be cut. There is optional commentary on these but it's only Trey and Matt laughing hysterically while drunk. Then there are 40 minutes worth of outtakes, some are funny but it's just overkill. The documentary "The Book of Orgazmo" is alright, but more time is spent trying to be jokey then telling the actual story of making the movie. The Dragon Con interview is the worst feature. While some good questions are asked you won't be able to easily hear them because the sound was messed up the whole time. At the start of the interview you just watch Trey drink a soda while they try to get the sound fixed, this goes on for about 5 minutes. Universal also does annoying zoom ins whenever Trey takes a drink from his soda because it's from McDonald's. Guess they didn't want to give them free advertising. Some EPK interviews are included but we've already heard everything in them before. There are a couple of trailers, one that was shown in theaters and a fake trailer made to raise money for the movie. Apparently Universal thought people wouldn't understand that there were jokes in this section so the have THIS IS A PARODY covering the bottom of the screen throughout the whole thing. Lastly there's 15 minutes of behind the scenes footage and some stills. And that brings us to the end of another messed up Universal DVD. I give it 3 stars for the movie.

Where on Earth do they come up with this stuff? Trey Parker has outdone himself with this interesting and unique look at the porn business. Not only is the story line VERY original, but the way in which Trey Parker pulled off this role seemed very convincing---I constantly thought he was Mormon. Overall this is one of the best comedies I have seen. I laughed, I cried, I wet myself. Way to go Trey!

I must start by saying ignore the rating, it was an error by the MPAA. I laughed so hard in the beginning and kept on laughing all the way through. My eyes filled with tears and my chest ached in pain by the end, I also think I popped a couple blood vessels. Trey Parker shows unabriged comedy genius in script and direction. Dian Bacher plays the side kick to perfection. Matt Stone plays a Scotty esq. ( Philip Seymour Hoffmans role in Boogie Nights) role with hilarity. Ron Jeremy, Jill Kelly and a couple other Adult Film stars lend an authenticity to the sets adding to great environment. If ever there was a film that begged to be on DVD this is it. Give it to us now! A comedy collection is not complete unless you have Orgazmo.

As much as I enjoy SOUTH PARK and I really do enjoy it quite a bit, I really have a soft spot in my heart for Trey and Matt's (along co-stars Dian Bachar and Masao Maki) live-action swag. In fact, there's a part of me that wishes that SOUTH PARK wasn't so damn popular. With the guys constantly busy with the show, it has resulted in zero room for more live-action projects like ORGASMO and CANNIBAL! THE MUSICAL. Now, a few folks here have knocked ORGASMO for it's cheap production values and special effects, but what they fail to understand is that cheesy look is intentional, it's part of the film's charm. Sure, the guys didn't have a ton of cash to produce this picture, but even if they did, I'd bet that they would still employ that low-budget look for the film to get laughs. Not to spoil the ending, but showing a cheaply built miniature home going up in flames is way funnier than burning a real home or using CGI flame effects. So, relax and enjoy this film for what it is, a very funny and original comedy.
