    Special Features
    Supplements on side one include upfront ads and the choice of watching the theatrical version with optional feature commentaries or the unrated version. (You won't want to miss these three different commentaries: a pretty hilarious drunken commentary, a very, ahem..., revealing cast commentary, and some entertaining wild commentary). Bonus features on side two include deleted scenes (which is actually only one scene) with optional commentary, the 39-minute documentary entitled "The Book of Orgazmo," a 34-minute Dragon Con Interview with Trey Parker, two trailers, 42 minutes of outtakes, eight minutes of EPK interviews with Trey Parker, Matt Stone, and others; and a stills gallery.

      WSR Narrative Review
    Story Synopsis:
    While spreading the word of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Hollywood, CA, Joe Young (Parker) unwittingly knocks on the door of porno director Maxxx Orbison (Jacobs). A fight breaks out while Maxxx's bodyguards are showing him the way out, but Joe turns out to be the one kicking some serious butt. Maxxx is so impressed with Joe

    DVD Picture:
    The anamorphically enhanced 1.85:1 DVD picture exhibits satisfying quality. With images that are generally sharp and detailed, though many scenes appear to be softly focused. Colors are brightly saturated, highlighting the outlandish costumes, though hues tend to appear somewhat reddish at times. Fleshtones can appear ruddy and blacks are deep, but undefined. Minor smearing is evident, though there is rarely any bothersome edge enhancement or pixelization. (Suzanne Hodges)

    Soundtrack:
    The Dolby

    Reason #128 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    I read Widescreen Review because it gets to the details I'm really interested in knowing. It doesn't beat around the bush. I love the DVD reviews and the insightful articles. Besides insightful, WSR seems to be able to put into print some of the latest breaking news in this ever-changing industry within weeks, if not days, of the original release of the news. And last but not least, I have access to the subscription website.
