Okay, I’ll admit to being a sucker for parody films. I loved “300” and I’m excited to check out this new unrated release of “Meet the Spartans” due out June 3rd. “Meet the Spartans” was written by the same guys who wrote “Date Movie” and “Epic Movie”.

Maybe they should have got Mr. T and David Hasselhoff to round out the cast, now that sounds like an Academy Award just waiting to happen. Please note the sarcasm and watch the trailer to Lost Boys 2: The Tribe.
