Turkey!

Orgazmo

(Polygram)

Writer/director Trey Parker of South Park fame plays a Mormon named Joe Young who takes on a porn-film role in order to finance his Temple wedding with toothy, shrieking fiancée Lisa (Robyn Lynne Raab). Captain Orgazmo is a superhero who disables bad guys by making them come with a blast from his "Orgazmorator." Making people laugh is another challenge altogether. With his South Park sidekick Matt Stone playing a smitten crew member in a pitiful poke at Boogie Nights, this tedious trash was rated NC-17 for no apparent reason other than that it's unwatchable for viewers of all ages.
