The Starving Games: Exclusive Clip

From the makers of movies that remind you of other movies comes The Starving Games, a broad parody of The Hunger Games directed by Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer (Meet the Spartans). We’d like to say something meaningful or dramatic about this one, but let’s be honest here: it’s a silly little comedy in a silly little genre that you already know if you’re a fan of or not. We’re assuming you are, since you clicked on this CraveOnline Exclusive preview clip of The Starving Games, featuring a cameo appearance by The Avengers as they try to enlist not-Katniss into their ranks, much to the chagrin of Hawkeye. (Aw… poor Hawkeye.) You can find even more details below.

The Starving Games opens in select cities and premieres on VOD and Digital Download on November 8, 2013!

From the Press Release:

In The Starving Games, Friedberg and Seltzer’s sixth cinematic spoof of popular box-office hits, the prolific parody duo has its sights trained on the adventure blockbuster The Hunger Games!  It’s all the laughs and half the calories as they sling dozens of cock-eyed, barbed arrows at sci-fi, action and fantasy films from The Avengers and Oz the Great and Powerful to pop culture characters and celebrities like Harry Potter and Taylor Swift.

The Starving Games stars Maiara Walsh (“Switched at Birth”) as Kantmiss Evershot, the eagle-eyed archer whose bravery and skills inspire the masses along with trending topics on Twitter®; Cody Allen Christian (“Surrogates,” “Pretty Little Liars,”) as Peter Malarkey, the geeky young man who volunteers alongside Kantmiss; Brant Daugherty (“Dancing with the Stars,” “Pretty Little Liars,” “Days of Our Lives”) as Dale, Kantmiss’s beau who’s left behind to watch – and simmer; Ross Wyngaarden (“Bonnie & Clyde: Justified”) as Marco, a ruthless player handy with a blade; Dean West (“Monster Hunters”) as Seleca, the game’s controller and Diedrich Bader (Vampires Suck, Meet the Spartans) as President Snowballs, the malevolent, but ratings-conscious ruler.  The comedy is directed by Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer (Meet the Spartans, Vampires Suck) and is produced by Peter Safran (The Conjuring, Vampires Suck).

Rated PG-13 for crude and sexual content, comic violence, language and partial nudity.
