Additional Footage; Soundtrack English; Director's Comments The staff members of Camp Firewood, feeling that they have squandered the summer of 1981, are determined to make their last day together count. Crunchy counselor Beth (Jeaneane Garofolo) finds an unexpected love interest in shy, neighboring astrophysicist Neuman (David Hyde Pierce), who is busy tracking an errant piece of Skylab. Elsewhere, everyman Coop (Michael Showalter) pursues longtime crush Katie (Marguerite Monroe), despite her ignoramus boyfriend, Andy (Paul Rudd). Uptight Susie (Amy Poehler) is determined to stage a talent show that will rival the average Broadway production, while divorced arts and crafts instructor Gail (Molly Shannon) seeks love advice from 12-year-old campers. While several counselors make a pilgrimage to a crack house, virginal Gary has an unexpected sexual awakening, and Vietnam veteran cook Gene finds a guiding light in a can of green beans and erotic fulfillment in the refrigerator.
Conceived by Michael Showalter and David Wain, members of comedy troupe THE STATE, WET HOT AMERICAN summer pays tribute to the teen films of the 1970s and early 1980s, most notably the Bill Murray summer camp classic MEATBALLS, with a straight face and an anything-goes brand of comedy. Mixing and matching from a checklist of youth film clichés and turning them into sight gags that often defy time and space, Showalter and Wain have crafted a film that manages to be a consistently funny tribute to the genres it lampoons. Theatrical Release: July 27, 2001 (LIMITED) Wet Hot American Summer Reviews: "...Wain and Showalter deserve camp kudos for getting the details right..."-- Peter Travers, Rolling Stone "...WET HOT AMERICAN SUMMER is generous in its comic opportunities..."
-- A. O. Scott, New York Times "...A delectable parody....Hilariously sly....Showalter gives an inspired performance....[A} gleeful and ingenious pop satire..."

Wet Hot American Summer Video Wet Hot American Summer Movie Review  Worst Camp Movie EVER!!!
Buy the movie "Meatballs" with Bill Murray. If you want camp laughs or even The Addams family where the Kids go to camp.
This is very very disapointing and laugh-less film.

 if you're into dry relatable humor... Hell cop this!!!
THIS MOVIE IS SICK!!! Stella is way too out of the loop (my opinion) but this movie has moments of brilliant hilarity Great cast that knows exactly what the director was looking for... that dude from OZ is the sh*t... plus the can of fruit is a main player in the film...

 Better than you'd expect
I renewed my interest in this film after reading that the team behind Comedy Central's sketch comedy show "Stella" did this film. I think the humor is sly and the satire subtle. Usually in a film of this genre the opposite is true in both cases. Nice comic acting too by the principals and co-stars too.

This is the funniest/stupidest movie ever... EVER
There are some well-known actors and a bunch of not-so-well-known actors in this movie. Nonetheless, they all make some of the best performances ever seen in a comedy. From the actors to the plot to the shear, unbriddled idiocy, Wet Hot American Summer comes together in a way that can never possibly be forgotten. I'm almost offended that this movie isn't more popular. It is definitely a buried treasure. The feature itself isn't all that makes this DVD great. The special features are multitudinous and there's even more hilarity in the "deleted scenes" and "behind the scenes". This is most certainly a comedy collectors dream.

Troma delivers the goods once again with this rock-&-roll-themed splatter-fest. Belcebu is one of the biggest rock stars on the planet, and regularly encourages his fans to commit suicide through his outré lyrics. But when Belcebu gets the ultimate compliment--the Devil himself offering the singing star a chance to achieve immortality--his curvaceous ex-girlfriend tries to put a stop to his plans. A Spanish-language film that embodies everything that's great about Troma, BELCEBU DIABLOS LESBOS is a deliciously campy visual romp.
