The body double is our longtime friend Abbie Cobb, who costarred with me in the first stage adaptation of "Toxic Avenger: The Musical." She's right in the middle of a stint on Beverly Hills 90210.
She sent the video to Dileep Rao, who played the psychic in Drag Me to Hell, and was recently a scientist in Avatar and the guy who drived the van into the river in Inception. His response:
I would watch Coco in anything. I'd happily watch a video where she stewed and ate my pets. posted by ColdChef at 7:48 PM on February 6, 2011
In case you're wondering, the film took about four hours and cost about $8 to pay for parking. For me and Coco, that's king of a big budget film. posted by Astro Zombie at 8:12 PM on February 6, 2011 [1 favorite]

I am a man. I hope that's okay!
I am so nerdy about this movie that I felt actual pangs of jealousy seeing someone else hold the prop button. I want to hold the prop button! posted by hermitosis at 9:57 PM on February 6, 2011

I laughed 'til I cried. (Seriously, there are tears of laughter rolling down my cheeks.) This is COMEDY GOLD.
Is there any chance of more "Movies From Memory"? I could pitch in for parking money if it'll help! posted by The Shiny Thing at 4:48 AM on February 7, 2011
Really, all we need are additional actual props from movies. posted by Astro Zombie at 7:24 AM on February 7, 2011

I like this version better, it's more realistic than the movie! posted by P.o.B. at 11:55 AM on February 7, 2011
I also picked out some actual dialogue from the original movie, particularly "I'm Justin Long" and "That's stupid".
Awesome job. posted by owtytrof at 9:05 AM on February 8, 2011
