A group of teens vow to lose their virginity by prom night, with hilarious consequences. This 1999 Comedy is a hilarious reworking of the teen sex comedys of the 80's and is a damn fine film in it's own right. It doesnt just explore the teens hunt for sex but their own feelings and insights into this ALL IMPORTANT right of passage, a funny coming of age story.
Oh year, Jason Biggs humps a pie too.
