United States of Americathe story of a grad student, his two slacker roommates, and the virgin-mary-shaped-poop that appears in their toilet and tears their world apart
SynopsisWhen one of Art’s freeloading friends leaves a “floater” in his toilet that resembles the Virgin Mary, the normally neat and reserved grad student must confront a sea of tourists, religious zealots and hedonistic cult members making their daily pilgrimage to his apartment. And when the ideologically opposed factions begin clashing head-on, Art has to act quickly - before all Hell breaks loose and his life spins out of his control.

Comedian Bill Maher stirred up a good deal of controversy by saying (in so many words) that all world religions were full of shit in his documentary Religulous, but he didn't have the balls to conjure up the image of religious zealots actually worshipping a fecal idol. Local filmmaker Boaz Dror, however, has no such reservations, as he placed a dubiously divine shitter-vention at the center of his low-budget satire The Holy Deuce. Despite treading some well-worn indie cinema territory (protagonist with wacky ambitions is constantly put upon by slacker roommates and an uptight girlfriend), the film does well to balance its toilet-born premise with high-minded social commentary—even after it introduces a religious sect identified as the "Scatalogians."

The above is a comment taken from the following site: http://bit.ly/bvifsV and was not made by me myself, but rather by the reviewer "stephen2732"
It's amazing what these guys were able to do on a small budget. The story had a lot of social commentary but was funny the whole way through. Great pacing and some great visual scenes.
