Mallrats (1995)

CHARACTER Brodie Bruce, a comic-book-loving slacker who decides to cheer up his pal T.S. Quint (Jeremy London) by taking him to the local mall after they've both been dumped by their respective girlfriends. Comic misadventures ensue.

SLEAZE FACTOR Off the charts. While at the mall, Brodie has make-up sex with his ex (Shannen Doherty, left) in the elevator, delivers several unprintable rants that focus largely on sexual misbehavior, and sabotages a batch of chocolate-covered pretzels with his own, um, stink. Still, he's the surprisingly charming center of this underrated comedy.
