Erik Stifler joins his cousin Dwight at the University of Michigan. Erik is nursing a broken heart after being dumped by his girlfriend while Dwight has his own problems to face in the form of nerdy GEK House, a fraternity who are attempting to destroy Dwight's own hard-partying Beta House. Erik, his best friend Cooze, and new roommate Bobby pledge to Beta House and enjoy all the hedonism that it entails. Meanwhile, the only way to settle the intense rivalry between the geeks and Beta House is to take part in the Greek Games, a campus ritual that was banned 40 years previously for going too far. AMERICAN PIE PRESENTS BETA HOUSE is a bawdy and enjoyable film that has many of the same elements of the previous films in the AMERICAN PIE series, whilst also incorporating parts of NATIONAL LAMPOON'S ANIMAL HOUSE and REVENGE OF THE NERDS. As was the case with the previous five instalments, Eugene Levy again appears in the film to give fatherly advice to the freshmen.

The sixth entry in the long-running American Pie franchise anchors its story in the tried-and-true rivalry between nerds and jocks while serving up the non-stop barrage of raunchy gags for which the series has earned its notoriety. The twist in Beta House is that the nerds are actually the heels of the picture, while the heroes (as it were) are hormonally super-charged Erik Stifler (John White) and his pals, who pledge at their college's most chaotic frat during their freshman year. That the fraternity, Beta House, is run by Erik's cousin Dwight (Steve Talley) only works in their favour, but trouble rears its head in the form of the Geek House, a rival frat made up of socially awkward boys with money to burn due to their technological superiority. The apex of their clash is the Greek Olympics (inexplicably presided over by American Pie regular Eugene Levy), which descends into a frenzy of scatological sight gags (one bit, inspired by the Russian Roulette scene in The Deer Hunter, is jaw-droppingly gross). The sweetness that tempered the sex jokes in the original American Pie is completely absent from this entry; that, however, may not be a bad thing for some viewers. The DVD includes a considerable amount of deleted material, including whole story lines removed from the final product; commentary by and interviews with the cast and crew, outtakes, an in-character interview with Levy, and a ridiculous "Yule Log" featurette (a smutty play on the old Video Yule Log) round out the extras. --Paul Gaita
