Disaster Movie Release Date: August 29, 2008
“Disaster Movie,” the filmmaking team behind the hits “Scary Movie,” “Date Movie,” “Epic Movie” and “Meet the Spartans” this time puts its unique, inimitable stamp on one of the biggest and most bloated movie genres of all time – the disaster film.
“Disaster Movie” follows the comic misadventures of a group of ridiculously attractive twenty-somethings during one fateful night as they try to make their way to safety while every known natural disaster and catastrophic event - asteroids, twisters, earthquakes, the works – hits the city and their path as they try to solve a series of mysteries to end the rampant destruction.
Taking aim at everything and everyone, from “Indiana Jones” and “Iron Man” to Amy Winehouse and “High School Musical,” “Disaster Movie” lampoons the blockbuster movie, pop culture icons and public figures along the way as Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer satirize everything as only they can
including: Iron Man parody, Incredible Hulk parody, Juno parody, Sex and the City Parody, Hancock parody, Enchanted parody, Hannah Montana parody
Fabtopolis’ greatest supervillain, a magician who goes by the pseudonym The Great Jim, has just kidnapped the city’s mayor (Leslie Nielson) and his wife (Laura Kightlinger). Four of the world’s most spectacular superheroes are called to the rescue: Beakman (Greg Giraldo) — the leader of the group, Squak (Eric Christian Olsen) — the wannabee, Cleara (Carla Gugino) — the see-through hero, and The Stoner (Ben Harr) — a loser who becomes a large stone monster when he gets high. The Great Jim is building a device that will allow him to sound like anybody in the world and this group of superheroes must stop him and save the mayor or the entire city will be destroyed.
