"She's more than just a sexy image and that's what was really fun about getting into this character" - Carmen Electra

But she says there is more to her character than meets the eye: "She's more than just a sexy image and that's what was really fun about getting into this character and playing Candy Fiveways."

Newcomer Tom Riley plays the wannabe movie maker Joe and Eddie Marsan features as a hard nut producer who decides to back the amateur video.

Comic Jimmy Carr also crops up as a local video shop owner, who seems to have an in depth knowledge of the subject matter.

The film features plenty of adult humour but is all done with good taste.
