40-Year Old-Virgin Re-cut As Psycho Thriller

In hindsight, perhaps we were a little hasty in cataloguing Steve Carell’s loner in The 40-Year Old Virgin as a good guy…

The signs were all there - serial loner, avid gamer, screamer, dramatic runner, obsessed with sex, generally a bit odd - and they’ve now been brilliantly edited into a recut trailer to give tech store worker Andy Stitzer an altogether darker side.

As the latest recut to prove a dose of clever editing can change your whole perception of a classic film in a matter of minutes, this one will ensure you never watch the 2005 Judd Apatow comedy the same way again.

The creepy if hilarious video is below. Although should you want to know more about the original, click here for a link to some lesser known 40-Year-Old Virgin film facts.
