South Park cocreator Trey Parker goes straight for the gross-out humor in this live-action farce set in the adult-movie industry. Parker stars as an innocent Mormon kid who gets sucked into the world of pornographic filmmaking and becomes an international sensation as the porno superhero Orgazmo, all the while hiding his secret life from his milk-fed fiancée. It's practically a one-man show for Parker, who directs, writes, stars, and even performs the self-penned theme song as frontman for his rock band, and perhaps he should have spread the responsibilities a little. As an actor he's surprisingly appealing--his dazed grin and bleached white surfer-dude hair give him an engaging air of innocence (he can also be seen, just as innocently endearing, in the sports farce BASEketball). Paired with longtime crony Dian Bachar, the diminutive actor who plays his superhero sidekick Chodo Boy, they bring a Hardy Boys naiveté to the rude world of mobbed-up producers and jaded adult film stars. But the film is only fitfully funny, with vulgar jokes that are often more disgusting than humorous and clumsy comic timing sabotaging promising scenes. Only rarely does it reach the heights of his hilarious cutout cartoon series, but when he delivers he does so with the carefully cultivated tasteless excess his fans have come to know and love. Matt Stone costars as a clueless photographer and adult film star; Ron Jeremy appears as a gross gangster henchman. --Sean Axmaker

Might have gotten 5 stars if it had been...........2007-07-23
as funny as Baseketball.BASEketball It is still pretty funny, but Baseketball IS better. If you like anything Trey or Matt has done, you WILL like this film! I was literally laughing out loud whenever Matt's character came on screen! Just his expression alone made me laugh...plus the "I dont mean to sound like a queer or anything, but..." lines were hilarious!
I give this 4 stars and it is a MUST OWN!!!
***bonus: drunken commentary!!!
If you have an obtuse sense of humor, you'll love it!!.......2007-05-23
I had the pleasure of seeing this movie when it came out on the movie channels back in my college years. I was in disbelief of what I was seeing and even more suprised there had been no "buzz" about the film.
Ten years later I still love this movie!! I beleive this is the most underrated and "under the radar" comedy that I have had witness to. "Baseketball" is second-rate to this movie for those that are fans - but still a great movie. South Park fans rejoice! This is the South Park creators at their finest!! May the easily offended be warned!!!!! This movie is NOT for you!

NC-17 Was the Death of Orgazmo.......2007-05-07
Orgazmo was a rough little gem that came out awhile back. Since it concerns the porn industry, and it was written and directed by the one of the men responsible for South Park, it got slapped with an NC-17 rating. If you don't believe that there is bias in the movie ratings, check this movie out.
It's the story of a young Mormon played by writer-director Trey Parker, who during one of the stops on his route to enlist more Mormons, catches the eye of a pornographic movie director. Enthralled by Elder Young's (Parker, whose character name is one of the many ironic hints this movie provides) acting abilities, hires him to play the lead in his new adult superhero video, Orgazmo.
Obviously, Elder Young wants no part of this, but when he gets offered the money, which he needs to afford his wedding, and is given the stipulation that he will not be performing any of the sexual acts himself (they'll use a different actor for the intimate moments), he reluctantly agrees.
What unfolds is a series of events that spoofs all movie devices, demonizing the porn industry for causing great pain within the community. Elder Young, along with his on-screen sidekick, Choder Boy (Dian Bachar -- a hilarious and underused character actor), become in real life the superheroes they play in the movies. Armed with their martial arts (which all Mormons and half-pint science whizes seem to know) and Elder Young's Notorious Orgazmo Ray, the two "superheroes" -- Orgazmo and Choder Boy -- set out to destroy the porn studio that they are employed by.
Here's the kicker, though. You'd think that this movie would be really, really dirty. And it is, for its part. There are f-bombs in it, but not nearly as many as in South Park: Bigger, Longer and Uncut (which had an R rating), no actual simulated sex (though, for its part, had a few simulated orgasims by men hit by the Orgazmo Ray), and the only nudity is men's butts, seen quickly as an in-joke, where a naked man always stands in front of the camera, blocking the porn sex. There's also a tiny bit of goofy, non-believable violence, but nothing worse than an average episode of Might Morphin Power Rangers or Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
You'll have to watch the movie to understand why it never deserved an NC-17 rating. And, once you know that, you'll probably be upset by the fact that you never got the chance to see this movie outside of video or late night Cinemax airings. It's not the greatest movie ever made, nor is it even Trey Parker's best movie, but it is definetly worth the watch, if, for nothing else, to see real life porn star Ron Jeremy play one of the bad guys who gets his head crushed in one of the movie's very badly choreographed fight sequences.
Better than expected.......2007-01-09
I picked up this DVD just because I am a fan of Trey Parker and Matt Stone. Did not expect much, but this ended up becoming one of my favorite movies. The humor is brilliant at moments, and lowest common denominator at other times. It's not perfect, but I highly recomend it as a great piece of mind candy.
Hilarious!!!!.......2006-12-28
This movie very funny and most of all, hilarious!!! Besure that you see the NC-17 version and also watch the extras of this one. The out-takes are also hilarious. I loved this movie from start to finish. It takes the most unlikely guy (Joe) and turns him into a porn star. Joe starts out as as a Mormon and turns into a porn super hero "Orgasmo". Orgasmo the 3rd most popular mainstream movie and Joe has never acted or for that fact, performed porn in his whole life. The whole time he has in his mind that he is earning money to marry his fiance that is back home in Utah. Joe tells her that he is now acting but can not tell her that it is in a porn movie. I won't give away too much in giving a summary of the movie. See the movie and laugh until your head hurts with this one.

Orgazmo was a rough little gem that came out awhile back. Since it concerns the porn industry, and it was written and directed by the one of the men responsible for South Park, it got slapped with an NC-17 rating. If you don't believe that there is bias in the movie ratings, check this movie out.
It's the story of a young Mormon played by writer-director Trey Parker, who during one of the stops on his route to enlist more Mormons, catches the eye of a pornographic movie director. Enthralled by Elder Young's (Parker, whose character name is one of the many ironic hints this movie provides) acting abilities, hires him to play the lead in his new adult superhero video, Orgazmo.
Obviously, Elder Young wants no part of this, but when he gets offered the money, which he needs to afford his wedding, and is given the stipulation that he will not be performing any of the sexual acts himself (they'll use a different actor for the intimate moments), he reluctantly agrees.
What unfolds is a series of events that spoofs all movie devices, demonizing the porn industry for causing great pain within the community. Elder Young, along with his on-screen sidekick, Choder Boy (Dian Bachar -- a hilarious and underused character actor), become in real life the superheroes they play in the movies. Armed with their martial arts (which all Mormons and half-pint science whizes seem to know) and Elder Young's Notorious Orgazmo Ray, the two "superheroes" -- Orgazmo and Choder Boy -- set out to destroy the porn studio that they are employed by.
Here's the kicker, though. You'd think that this movie would be really, really dirty. And it is, for its part. There are f-bombs in it, but not nearly as many as in South Park: Bigger, Longer and Uncut (which had an R rating), no actual simulated sex (though, for its part, had a few simulated orgasims by men hit by the Orgazmo Ray), and the only nudity is men's butts, seen quickly as an in-joke, where a naked man always stands in front of the camera, blocking the porn sex. There's also a tiny bit of goofy, non-believable violence, but nothing worse than an average episode of Might Morphin Power Rangers or Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
You'll have to watch the movie to understand why it never deserved an NC-17 rating. And, once you know that, you'll probably be upset by the fact that you never got the chance to see this movie outside of video or late night Cinemax airings. It's not the greatest movie ever made, nor is it even Trey Parker's best movie, but it is definetly worth the watch, if, for nothing else, to see real life porn star Ron Jeremy play one of the bad guys who gets his head crushed in one of the movie's very badly choreographed fight sequences.
Better than expected.......2007-01-09
I picked up this DVD just because I am a fan of Trey Parker and Matt Stone. Did not expect much, but this ended up becoming one of my favorite movies. The humor is brilliant at moments, and lowest common denominator at other times. It's not perfect, but I highly recomend it as a great piece of mind candy.
Hilarious!!!!.......2006-12-28
This movie very funny and most of all, hilarious!!! Besure that you see the NC-17 version and also watch the extras of this one. The out-takes are also hilarious. I loved this movie from start to finish. It takes the most unlikely guy (Joe) and turns him into a porn star. Joe starts out as as a Mormon and turns into a porn super hero "Orgasmo". Orgasmo the 3rd most popular mainstream movie and Joe has never acted or for that fact, performed porn in his whole life. The whole time he has in his mind that he is earning money to marry his fiance that is back home in Utah. Joe tells her that he is now acting but can not tell her that it is in a porn movie. I won't give away too much in giving a summary of the movie. See the movie and laugh until your head hurts with this one.
