American independent filmmaker Gary Preisler makes his film debut as a writer/director with the black comedy National Lampoon's Gold Diggers. Twentysomethings Calvin Menhoffer (Will Friedle) and Leonard Smallwood (Chris Owen) get arrested for the robbery of two sixtysomething women, Doris (Louise Lasser) and Betty (Renee Taylor). The ladies decide to drop the charges and invite the crooks to their space-age mod Beverly Hills mansion. Cal and Lenny come up with a plan to marry the women for their money in hopes that they die within the year. It turns out that Doris and Betty are actually broke and they're planning to marry the boys, kill them, and cash in on their insurance money. After several unsuccessful murder attempts, all four characters end up robbing Doris and Betty's rich uncle. Originally titled Lady Killers but changed to avoid confusion with the Coen brothers' remake of the classic 1955 film, Gold Diggers was shown at the 2003 CineVegas Film Festival. ~ Andrea LeVasseur, Rovi

Put Nikki Ziering and her golden globes in a skimpy bikini on the DVD box, slap on an Unrated tag, and you'll get fools like me renting this piece of trash. Move over Ishtar, make room for National Lampoon's Gold Diggers!

this movie is worth about 10 minutes of my time, just fast forward to the good parts, and for those of you who are going to rent this movie, you know what the good parts are.

I turned this movie off after 30 minutes. It was not even remotely funny. It was a disappointment. Do not waste your time with this stinker.
