[edit] Plot

The film revolves around mild-mannered Mormon missionary Joe Young (Trey Parker), who gets talked into starring in a porno movie by the famous porn director Maxxx Orbison (Michael Dean Jacobs) in order to earn enough money to marry his fiancée Lisa (Robyn Lynne Raab), in the Salt Lake City temple.

In the movie-within-the-movie, he plays a superhero named "Orgazmo" who fights crime with his sidekick "Choda Boy", played by Ben Chapleski (Dian Bachar) using his signature weapon, the "Orgazmorator", a device that forcefully triggers climax in those he uses it on. Following an agreement with the director, Joe acts and fights while a "stunt cock" does the rest. Orgazmo goes on to be a smash hit, and the director decides to exploit the missionary and make the movie into a series. Joe's fiancée is upset at his role in the film and leaves, and is kidnapped by the director to ensure Joe's participation in further filming.

Joe then decides to fight back using a real Orgazmorator invented by Ben, which gives him the powers his character purportedly had. He uses these powers to bring down the corrupt filmmaker and rescue his fiancée. The film wraps up with Lisa, seeing Ben's distress at the thought of his friend moving back to Utah, declaring that Joe must stay and fight crime with him. Ben, after a prayer from Joe, concludes by saying, "god bless us...every one!" (a parody of Tiny Tim's line at the end of A Christmas Carol).

The real "Orgazmorator" helps Joe and Ben save Lisa.
