NEVER BEEN THAWED [Zero stars]

CHEAP digital video equipment – and the increasing willingness of some theater owners to book almost anything for a check – have resulted in an increasing number of inane vanity projects like “Never Been Thawed” being foisted upon innocent moviegoers.

This painfully unfunny mockumentary about obsessive collectors of frozen-food entrees takes potshots at anti-abortionists, Christian rockers, aversion therapy for gays and the disabled – and misses almost every time.

Sean Anders makes his debut here as writer, director and star. With luck, there won’t be a second time.

Running time: 87 minutes. Not rated (vulgar humor). At Cinema Village, E. 12th St. and University Place.
