Disaster Movie is a 2008 movie made by Seltzer and Friedberg. It's their sixth movie. Though most of their movies have been unanimously hated by critics, they still made several times their budget regardless, this movie didn't, and is often cited (along with The Starving Games) as the reason why the duo started slowing down.Following a bizzarre Nightmare Sequence, average 25-year old Will (played by Matt Lanter) finds himself involved in the apocalypse,and it's up to him and his group to solve the situation and, in Will's case, come back with his girlfriend Amy.

Say My Name:Features several characters doing nothing more than yelling their names, y'know, so you understand who they are. The best way to parody something is to explain exactly what it is you're parodying!

Black Comedy: Juney chugs vodka, breakdances on her belly, and she and her unborn child get ripped apart by rabid wildlife from Alvin and the Chipmunks. There was a big bottle of Ambien and a wine glass, which could be a reference to Heath Ledger's death. Rumors also circulated that they wanted to be more direct based on casting the role of the Joker, but the deleted scene in question was actually just the character making out with some guy in a reference to Brokeback Mountain.

comment
Massive Multiplayer Ensemble Number: "Date Song", a blatant rip-off of "I'm F—-ing Matt Damon" from Jimmy Kimmel Live! (the Unrated Edition uses "fuck" instead), which brings together many of the movie's characters, even ones that have been killed during the movie, to sing a curtain call song... then it's Drop the Cow time!

Letting the Air out of the Band: After taking shelter in a warehouse, Calvin hears his Shoe Phone ring. He takes it off his foot, puts it up to his ear... and the spy music slows to a stop as he pulls it away, revealing the sole is covered in shit and he accidentally got some of it on his face.

Covers Always Lie: A poster has the logo done up in the style of The Simpsons Movie. The film has absolutely nothing to do with The Simpsons in the least, yet a poster was still made referencing it since it was still trendy at the time.

Deadly Prank: Chigurh has precisely two options for pranking a sleeping person at a party. The first is putting one of their hands in some warm water so they piss themselves. The second is shooting them in the forehead with his captive bolt stunner.

Negative Continuity: Calvin's face gets covered in shit from his Get Smart phone, only for him to be clean in the immediate next scene. And Juney's water breaks while hiding in the warehouse (which in this case means everyone else gets covered in foam). The two scenes where "Enchanted Princess" is mutilated by broken glass...
