Scary Movie screenwriters
Jason Friedberg and
Aaron Seltzer join forces to
parody the "biggest" movies ever to hit the silver screen in this
comedy that gives such popular box-office hits as
Pirates of the Caribbean and
Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe the same treatment that
Scary Movie gave to the
slasher subgenre. A virtual smorgasbord of
spoof,
Epic Movie tells the tale of four fully grown orphans: one the victim of snakes that attacked her plane, another raised by a kindly Louvre curator, the third a Mexican "libre" wrestling refuge, and the last an average mutant from an "X"-community. When the curious quartet visits a sprawling chocolate factory, they stumble across a magical wardrobe which transports them to the enchanted land of Gnarnia. It seems that the wondrous fantasy land has recently fallen under the spell of the evil
White Bitch (
Jennifer Coolidge), and in order to bring peace back to Gnarnia these four bumbling mortals will have to join forces with a charismatic pirate, a painfully sincere group of aspiring wizards, and one particularly libidinous lion.
