Pizza Movie is written and directed by Brian McElhaney & Nick Kocher, the internet sketch comedy duo known as BriTANicK.

“A shy college student and his reckless roommate set out on a simple mission to grab pizza, but after a strange dose of a mind-bending experimental drug, they’re thrust into a chaotic night of absurd encounters, wild hallucinations, and unexpected revelations that could change their lives forever,” according to the official plot synopsis.
In addition to Gaten Matarazzo, Pizza Movie’s cast includes Sean Giambrone, Lulu Wilson, Jack Martin, Peyton Elizabeth Lee, Marcus Scribner, Caleb Hearon, Sarah Sherman, Justin Cooley, Kevin Matthew Reyes, Adam Herschman, and Lucas Zelnick.
