Reviews
Best enjoyed on DVD, as the alcohol-fueled commentary track might just be the best one ever recorded.
An early project from the 'South Park' creators that, to put it politely, proves their best work was still to come.
General silliness from the SOUTH PARK boys, but some truly hilarious moments. And even (extremely loosely) based on actual events!
Early college film effort from South Park creators is the very definition of 'Sophomoric.'
Parker and Stone's satirical whims cannot seem to find an appropriate place in a live-action setting.
