The narrative skeleton of The Starving Games is almost identical to its source material, Suzanne Collins' dystopian thriller. We follow Kantmiss Evershot (played by Maiara Walsh), a bland approximation of Katniss Everdeen. She lives in District 12, though here it is depicted as a poverty-stricken wasteland where the primary food source is unappetizing blobs of porridge—a visual gag that runs out of steam within minutes.
To understand The Starving Games , one must understand the era in which it was made. The year was 2013. The Hunger Games: Catching Fire was about to hit theaters and become one of the highest-grossing films of the year. Pop culture was also obsessed with The Avengers , Sherlock Holmes , and the Twilight saga (which had just concluded).
Look-alikes of characters like Nick Fury and Iron Man appear in various scenes.
Updates on Katie's snack-filled adventures Ridiculous challenges and game-changing twists Behind-the-scenes peeks at the making of The Starving Games
The twist? The parody doesn't stop at The Hunger Games . The film continuously jumps rails to mock The Avengers (yes, Hulk shows up), The Dark Knight Rises (Bane makes an appearance in the cornucopia), Ted (the talking bear), and even The Real Housewives franchise.
