NOOBZ is the first big, outrageous comedy to capture gamer culture from the inside. Four friends hit the road to LA to compete in the Cyberbowl Video Game Championship but will they be able to compete with the worst hangovers of their lives? Cody has just lost his job and his hot wife is leaving him because he can’t stop gaming. Game store clerk Andy (Jason Mewes, Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back) convinces him to get the Reign Clan together, including sexually confused Oliver (Matt Shively, Paranormal Activity 4) and asthmatic teen “Hollywood” (Moises Arias, Ender’s Game, TV’s “Hannah Montana”), and head to California to win prize money and meet Andy’s online gamer-girl crush Rickie (Zelda Williams, daughter of Robin Williams). Nothing, not a Mom armed with mace or a bunch of bodacious strippers or a mulleted arcade game champion stuck in the ‘80s (Jon Gries, Napoleon Dynamite) or even Casper Van Dien (Starship Troopers) will stop this unlikely team from getting their frag on and bringing their A-game to the stiff competition.

Casper Van Dien's Top 5 Things You Need To Know About NOOBZ

Casper Van Dien (NOOBZ)

1) NOOBZ was Written, Produced, Starred and Directed by my pal Blake Freeman who is a real gamer himself. In fact when he asked me to come over to talk about the script we did the whole meeting while he and a bunch of other guys working on the film were doing a FIFA tournament.
2) Blake wrote me in to do a cameo as myself in the film based on how he sees me in our friendship. I think I need to reassess how my friends see me or maybe get some serious therapy and some very deep soul searching.
3) Lin Shaye from "There's Something About Mary" plays my girlfriend. She is so funny and just makes any scene she is in 100 times better. Those were also my leather pants in the scene. I actually wore them at my wedding in Vegas.
4) There are a bunch of real life gamers in the film But Zelda Williams (leader of the Pixie Team) is actually named after a character in a game. My daughter India Oxenberg Plays one of Zelda's Pixie Teammates too!
5) Although I only had a cameo in this film Blake has threatened to make me a teammate if there is a sequel and reveal even more of the side of me that I was not even aware of. It is always special when your friends are there to point out the ways you need to reflect on your own personal character.
