Jason Friedberg (born October 13, 1971) and Aaron Seltzer (born January 12, 1974) are American-Canadian filmmakers and screenwriters. They have primarily worked on parody films, which they began writing and directing during the mid-2000s. Friedberg and Seltzer's first five films between 2006 and 2010 received wide theatrical releases to mostly commercial success. However, critical reception to the duo has been universally negative; their films Epic Movie (2007), Meet the Spartans (2008), and Disaster Movie (2008) are considered among the worst ever made. Their films during the 2010s drew less attention due to receiving limited theatrical releases.
