Todd (Brad Renfrow), an average high school student, discovers that Karl, his neighbor (Ian McKellen) is a former Nazi war criminal. Todd becomes fascinated with him, to the point where he’d rather talk about death than get a blowjob from the girl he likes.

At first this film seemed kind of like the anti Schindler’s List: you see the Holocaust from the Mean Nazi’s point of view. Then the cheese really kicks in. Todd buys an old Nazi uniform and makes Karl put it on and march around. At first Karl is embarrassed, but then he gets into it, goosestepping around the room, ending in a nice Hitler salute. But his former Nazi days catch up to him further- a cute little stray cat joins him for dinner one night, and Karl gets the insatiable urge to put it in the oven.

Meanwhile, Nazi tendencies are rubbing off on our impressionable protagonist- he bribes his sensitive guidance counselor (David Schwimmer with a dopey Ned Flanders moustache) into helping Karl murder a homeless guy- it gets very silly. It’s great fun for those of us who enjoy making fun of Nazi stereotypes- at one point the homeless guy asks Karl if he can come into his house and take a shower- moments like this are exceptionally cheesily amusing for the sick mind. This is based on the novella by Cheesemeister Stephen King.
