Get ready to laugh at history with the unrated DVD release of Meet the Spartans from Fox Home Entertainment, and M&C is giving away five copies of the DVD! 

Delivering “300-times the gut-busting laughs and crass humor,” Meet The Spartans follows the journey of Leonidas, the King of Sparta.  When his kingdom is challenged by the powerful Xerxes, Leonidas must recruit some of his strongest soldiers; which unfortunately leaves him with 13 (not 300) of the not-so-finest. 

Armed with nothing but leather underwear and a flowing red cape, Leonidas leads his ragtag army to defend their homeland, delivering outrageous send-ups of motion picture heavyweights including Ghost Rider, Transformers, Spider-Man 3 and Casino Royale, as well as leaving no stone unturned by tackling such pop culture television staples as “American Idol,” “Dancing with the Stars,” “Ugly Betty” and “Deal or No Deal.” 

Meet The Spartans features spoof movie veteran Carmen Electra (Scary Movie 4), Kevin Sorbo (“Hercules: The Legendary Journeys”), Diedrich Bader (“The Drew Carey Show”), Ken Davitian (Borat), Sean Maguire (“The Class”) and Method Man (“The Wire”).
