I knew this had to be a David DeCoteau film.

Once i saw the guys in there underwear and all the shirtless dudes in a 90's b-movie. I knew that it had to be David DeCoteau film. The Red Letter Media featured two of his movies on Best of the Worst. The Killer Eye and Bigfoot vs. D.B. Cooper, both feature shirtless dudes in there underwear and Homoerotic undertones.

The Lurker

Hoping they'll tackle Santa's Summer House at some point.  It stars Gary Daniels and a bunch of action stars like Daniel Bernhardt and Cynthia Rothrick and proceeds to do nothing interesting with them.

Big Foot vs. D.B. Cooper?! Oh, I have to see that one!

Holy crap...go to Amazon...search on David DeCoteau.
7 of the movies on the first page alone feature virtually identical "covers" that would have led me to believe they were all gay porn movies (not that there's anything wrong with that if that's your thing) given the multiple shirtless guys. 
I kind of wanted to see more of this director's work after this riff, but those covers (even Big Foot vs, DB Cooper) made me decide to wait for another riff.

Not gay porn, just very homoerotic.  In fact, he has an entire series of specifically homoerotic genre movies called 1313.

Just watch Best of the Worst

Just skimmed the last half of that, but watched the first half.
It totally reinforced what I expect "Big Foot vs. D.B. Cooper" would be based on the poster...a bunch of shirtless guys staring at themselves in the mirror in their underwear. Kind of makes me want to see it riffed, but not un-riffed.
It did make me want the see Black Cougar and Space Cop though (both not David DeCoteau movies).

So Black Cougar seems to be fairly rare as the DVD is going for $55 or more and I couldn't find it via other sources. The website for it is now defunct as well. Address takes you to a porn site.

In think there a lot more weird sexual stuff in the Killer Eye. Which he directed under the name Richard Chasen. RedLetterMedia reviewed in 2013.

I would love if they riffed Black Cougar.

Looking into more about Bigfoot v. D.B. Cooper, it's not nearly as (potentially) awesome as it sounds.  :( It's basically a bunch of shirtless young men in tight-fitting shorts running around with occasional sissy-slaps from a bigfoot-like creature and little stuff involving Infamous Airliner Hijackers.

I haven't seen it (Big Foot vs DB Cooper) but based on that Red Letter Media review, it features a 15 minute segment where 1 shirtless guy walks up a flight of stairs, goes into a bedroom, takes off his pants, and then poses in front of a mirror in his underwear brandishing a gun. Then it cuts to a second shirtless guy who walks up those same stairs, goes to a different bedroom, takes off his pants, and poses with a gun in front of a mirror in his underwear. And then a 3rd. And then a 4th. So that's fully 1/6 of the movie (assuming it's 1 1/2 hours long).
