Development

Lee Roy Myers, the film's director

The film was directed by Lee Roy Myers, one of the creators of WoodRocket.com, a website dedicated to creating comedic pornographic parodies of popular media.[3][4] Myers stated that the main priority in his filmmaking is to go viral, and that the comedic title was the first part of the film to be decided. The words knob and nuts in the title were chosen to create a humorous innuendo; the terms were also used to allow the film to avoid online censorship by not using more vulgar words.[5]

The costume for SpongeKnob in the film consisted of a box and a yellow condom.[4] The costumes used in the film are on display at the Erotic Heritage Museum in Las Vegas, Nevada.[6]

A sequel, titled SpongeKnob SquareNuts 2, was released in 2014.[2]

Reception

[edit]

The film has received praise for its faithfulness to the source material. Journalist Gonzo Green noted that the film uses similar cutaways, title slides, and a theme song reminiscent of the original cartoon. However, he also criticized the film as "disturbing", describing it as "like a train crash that you just can't look away from".[2] Similarly, BuzzFeed called the film "the stuff of nightmares".[7] The Hollywood Reporter described SpongeKnob's costume in the film as "clunky" and "crusty".[1] The Daily Beast wrote: "Actors in bulky costumes imitate the goofy animated characters from Spongebob Squarepants in an impish, slightly disturbing hardcore sex session. It’s still Myers’s favorite film that he’s made."[8]

The film was presented as ridiculous, commentators noting the focus on the "relationship" between Bob and the Squirrel in the parody.[9][10][11]

Myers stated that the film performed well financially outside of North America.[3]
