User Reviews

Great cast, great movie, great cause.

The multi-talented Cookie "Chainsaw" Randolph and Dave Rickards have assembled a star-studded cast for a great cause; to help out San Diego area families in need. The movie is great fun and for those who are fans of the show, there are many references to bits from the radio show as well as appearances by Shelly Dunn, Chris Boyer, and Dave's parents. It also contains great scenery of San Diego. Cameo appearances by Will Ferrell, Bob Costas, Bob Saget, Paula Abdul, Paula Poundstone, and Sam The Cooking Guy (Sam Zien). Chainsaw's skill as a filmmaker has progressed so far, he has nothing to worry about should Dave leave him behind for satellite radio. Can't wait for the sequel when Chainsaw becomes a world famous movie producer who uses his considerable clout to make Dave's life miserable.
