Surviving Eden is a 2004[2] American comedy film written by Joanne Giovannini Storkan and Greg Pritikin, directed by Pritikin and starring Michael Panes, Cheri Oteri, Jane Lynch and Peter Dinklage.[1]
Dennis Flotchky wins a reality TV show and becomes the subject of a documentary that chronicles his short-lived fame and fortune.
The film was released in Manhattan on August 25, 2006.[3]
The film has a 14% rating on Rotten Tomatoes based on 14 reviews.[4] Nick Schager of Slant Magazine awarded the film 1 and a half stars out four.[2]
Stephen Holden of The New York Times gave the film a negative review and wrote, "Although the early scenes hold out some promise that Greg Pritikin’s Surviving Eden, a parody of Survivor in which contestants compete for a million-dollar payday by playing Adam and Eve in a jungle setting, could amount to something, the movie quickly runs out of ideas."[3]
