Why rent a dirty movie when you can make your own? That's the can-do philosophy embraced by a handful of girl-crazy teens in this
comedy.
Fred (
Tony Denman),
Deacon (
Erik von Detten), and
Matt (
Daniel Farber) are three high school kids who, like most teenaged boys, are obsessed with sex.
Deacon has a part time job at a video rental shop with a large selection of
adult films, and he's been able to sneak porn titles out of the store on a regular basis, to the great enthusiasm of
Matt and
Fred, who not only enjoy the videos themselves but dub bootleg copies they sell to their classmates to make pocket money. However, when
Deacon loses his job, the guys are left high and dry, until one of them gets an idea -- they've seen enough porn movies to know what the average viewer expects from one, so why don't they make one themselves? However, recruiting the performers necessary for such a project turns out to be harder than they expected, with exotic dancer
Ashley (
Sarah Jane Potts) and neighborhood bully
Jake (
Riley Smith) rising to the top of a very shallow talent pool. The first production from the guys is an unexpected success, but they soon discover that not everyone is happy with their good fortune, especially sleazy porn kingpin
Vic Ramalot (
Horatio Sanz), who isn't interested in having more competition. Filmed under the title
After School Special,
Barely Legal also stars
Tom Arnold,
Amy Smart, and
Dey Young.
