WHILE I'M DEAD, FEED THE DOG

This is a slightly better than normal teen-age sex comedy due to the all-star cast, but it is still a teen sex comedy. The film centers around Rick Stevens (Nat Wolff) student of the William Henry Harrison High School. GO HAMSTERS! He is infatuated by pudgy Nina Pennington (Selena Gomez) and on a bet needs to bed her by Arbor Day. Nina is a religious girl who likes Satanic music and wants to be a priest.

Rick's mom (Mary-Louise Parker) goes to rehab drunk. His dad (Cary Elwes) stays away. His sister (Ashley Rickards) is a stripper who wants to go to Stanford. Through a number of circumstances both Rick and the movie go on a Bender (Elisabeth Shue) as the production takes advantage of the MILF craze.

The humor is over the top, crude, and at times funny too. In fact it tries too hard to be funny which is perhaps its downfall as it doesn't engage the audience into thinking. Good film for those who like sex romps.

Parental Guide: F-bomb, sex, nudity (Mercy Malick + others)

a grind from the start

Life for high schooler Rick Stevens (Nat Wolff) is going all wrong. His mom tries to commit suicide and "While I'm Dead Feed the Dog" is painted on the garage door. It starts with his crush on school hottie Nina Pennington (Selena Gomez). He loses his virginity to his best friend's mom (Elisabeth Shue). His own mom (Mary-Louise Parker) appears as Saint Lola, the saint of teenage sex. He gets pushed into a bet with the mobster's son about having sex with Nina before Arbor Day. She has just broken up with her boyfriend. She likes Josh Groban and he tries to buy backstage passes from sleazy Jimmy Leach (Dylan McDermott).

This is trying to be a teen sex romp with broad satirical humor. It fails in many different ways. The first is that it fails to make Rick a likeable character. The movie needs to dump on him again and again so that he becomes sympathetic. For all the bad things that is supposed to be happening to him, the first big thing in the timeline is him having sex with his best friend's hot mom. He gets the date with the dream girl too early and too easily. He is too dislikable. Selena Gomez is completely bland as the goody girl. The movie is trying to be crude but it's trying too hard. Everything is ugly. The humor is way off. I don't know that much about director Tim Garrick and his writing partner Scott Russell. They don't have much of a track record but I did see their earlier writing effort, Jailbait. It has the same teen sex romp writing with broad satirical takes. The actors are lower grade, the production is lower, and the level of humor is similar. At least, that one's satire marginally works. None of this one works and it's a grind from the very start. I grew to hate the repeat-o-punchlines. This is wasting the talents of some pretty good actors in the adult roles. It's bad.

Having good actors in the cast unfortunately doesn't save a really bad movie

The movie start like a normal rom/teen/comedy and after like 10-15 minutes become pure nonsense.

There are a lot of good actors in this movie for some reason, so much good potetial, lost in a terrible terrible project.

This movie is simply badly made, so badly that they even get the timeline events of the story wrong, probably during the editing.

It could have been an average comedy but they made too much errors. This should be put in a manual as an example how not to make a movie. Bad writing, bad directing, bad editing....... this movie is really bad.

Do yourself a favor and search elsewhere, there is nothing good about this one.
