.com Animators Trey Parker and Matt Stone poke barbed fun at the Sundance Film Festival and its band of shallow Hollywood producers and hangers-on in this first of two South Park episodes in volume 11. While Chef tries to capitalize on South Park's influx of visitors by cooking up chocolate confections with the appetizing yet repulsive name of "Chef's Salty Chocolate Balls," Mr. Hanky chokes in the sewer from increased sewage flow. This last bit of plot is the hardest to (pardon the expression) swallow, but beyond this it's a wickedly funny tale that rips on Hollywood fads and pseudo-intellectual film lovers. "Chickenpox" is the wildly hilarious story of the boys' parents working together to get the boys to catch chickenpox by staying overnight at Kenny's poor, waffles-for-dinner home. When the boys discover they've been deceived and have "chicken herpes," they seek devious revenge using a herpes-laden prostitute whose antics will make you both cringe in offended horror and laugh hysterically at the same time. --Karen Karleski
