### Plot

Erik Stifler (John White) is the cousin of Steve and Matt Stifler from the theatrical films, and unlike his wild relatives he is no prankster: he risks becoming the first in his family to graduate from high school as a virgin.<sup>[6](https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0808146/plotsummary/)</sup> He has gone steady for two years with his equally inexperienced girlfriend Tracy ([Jessy Schram](https://www.edgepedia.org/jessy-schram)), who is not ready for sex.<sup>[6](https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0808146/plotsummary/)</sup><sup> • </sup><sup>[4](https://www.netflixmovies.com/american-pie-presents-the-naked-mile-2006)</sup>

When Tracy gives Erik a guilt-free pass to do as he pleases for a weekend, he takes a road trip with his friends Ryan (Ross Thomas) and Cooze (Jake Siegel) to the University of Michigan, where his cousin Dwight ([Steve Talley](https://www.edgepedia.org/steve-talley)) is a popular student.<sup>[6](https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0808146/plotsummary/)</sup><sup> • </sup><sup>[4](https://www.netflixmovies.com/american-pie-presents-the-naked-mile-2006)</sup> The trip is timed for the Naked Mile, the annual campus run in which students race with nothing on.<sup>[4](https://www.netflixmovies.com/american-pie-presents-the-naked-mile-2006)</sup> On campus Erik meets Brandy (Candace Kroslak), a college student with a taste for virgins, while Dwight feuds with a rival fraternity led by Rock (Jordan Prentice).<sup>[4](https://www.netflixmovies.com/american-pie-presents-the-naked-mile-2006)</sup> After well-meaning advice from Jim's dad, Mr. Levenstein ([Eugene Levy](https://www.edgepedia.org/eugene-levy)), the only returning character from the original films, Erik takes his chances at the race.<sup>[7](https://www.justwatch.com/us/movie/american-pie-presents-the-naked-mile)</sup><sup> • </sup><sup>[3](https://www.popentertainmentarchives.com/post/american-pie-presents-the-naked-mile-a-popentertainment-com-video-review)</sup>

### Place in the franchise

The film established the *American Pie Presents* direct-to-video line, in which each entry follows a previously unseen Stifler relative; Dwight Stifler, introduced here, returned as the lead of the next spin-off, *Beta House*.<sup>[3](https://www.popentertainmentarchives.com/post/american-pie-presents-the-naked-mile-a-popentertainment-com-video-review)</sup><sup> • </sup><sup>[12](https://s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/s3-euw1-ap-pe-ws4-cws-documents.ri-prod/9780815353362/FINAL_JM_Ulin_3e_Collected_Online_Supplement_Material.pdf)</sup> Eugene Levy's appearance as Mr. Levenstein, by then the only original character still recurring, provided the series' main continuity link.<sup>[3](https://www.popentertainmentarchives.com/post/american-pie-presents-the-naked-mile-a-popentertainment-com-video-review)</sup>

## Production and release

The film was produced by W.K. Border, with Craig Perry, Warren Zide, and Joel Soisson as executive producers, and scored by Jeff Cardoni.<sup>[8](https://watch.afi.com/movie/american-pie-presents-the-naked-mile)</sup> Production companies were Rogue Pictures and Neo Art & Logic, and it was filmed in [Hamilton, Ontario](https://www.edgepedia.org/hamilton-ontario).<sup>[9](https://cinequiz.com.br/en/movies/american-pie-presents-the-naked-mile-comedy-2006)</sup> Universal released it direct to video in December 2006; sources give the video release as December 19, 2006<sup>[1](https://www.the-numbers.com/movie/American-Pie-Presents-The-Naked-Mile-%282006%29)</sup> and a release date of December 7, 2006.<sup>[8](https://watch.afi.com/movie/american-pie-presents-the-naked-mile)</sup>

Reported runtimes differ by source: 1 hour 42 minutes on Rotten Tomatoes and Apple TV,<sup>[5](https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/american-pie-5-the-naked-mile)</sup><sup> • </sup><sup>[10](https://tv.apple.com/us/movie/american-pie-presents-the-naked-mile/umc.cmc.6vi8sufus5ijsuuu6edvk9gzx)</sup> 97 minutes on the [American Film Institute](https://www.edgepedia.org/american-film-institute) and [JustWatch](https://www.edgepedia.org/justwatch) listings,<sup>[8](https://watch.afi.com/movie/american-pie-presents-the-naked-mile)</sup><sup> • </sup><sup>[7](https://www.justwatch.com/us/movie/american-pie-presents-the-naked-mile)</sup> and 102 minutes in the Swank licensing catalog.<sup>[11](https://www.swank.com/college-campus/details/20573-american-pie-presents-the-naked-mile)</sup>

## Commercial performance

Because the film had no theatrical run, its recorded revenue comes from home video: The Numbers estimates $27,653,650 in domestic physical disc sales.<sup>[1](https://www.the-numbers.com/movie/American-Pie-Presents-The-Naked-Mile-%282006%29)</sup> A publishing industry study of direct-to-DVD franchises estimated that the *American Pie Presents* sequels (*Band Camp*, *The Naked Mile*, and *Beta House*) sold 1 to 2 million copies each.<sup>[12](https://s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/s3-euw1-ap-pe-ws4-cws-documents.ri-prod/9780815353362/FINAL_JM_Ulin_3e_Collected_Online_Supplement_Material.pdf)</sup>

## Reception

Critical response was negative. The film holds a 0% Tomatometer on Rotten Tomatoes, with all 5 counted reviews rated rotten and an average of 3.2 out of 10, while audience scores diverged sharply: 61% of more than 100,000 Popcornmeter ratings were 3.5 stars or higher.<sup>[5](https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/american-pie-5-the-naked-mile)</sup> IMDb users have given it 5.1 out of 10 from about 78,000 votes.<sup>[4](https://www.netflixmovies.com/american-pie-presents-the-naked-mile-2006)</sup>

Reviewers singled out the same weaknesses. Scott Weinberg, a DVD Talk critic, called it "one of the lamest, laziest and most shockingly amateurish comedies" he had seen and criticized Universal for putting little effort into the video sequels.<sup>[13](https://www.dvdtalk.com/reviews/25799/american-pie-presents-the-naked-mile/)</sup> David Nusair of Reel Film Reviews, rating it 1.5 out of 4, wrote that the film fares best in its low-key opening half hour, which emphasizes the relationship between Erik and Tracy, before settling into overlong gross-out set pieces.<sup>[14](https://reelfilm.com/american-pie-presents-the-naked-mile/)</sup> Heather Boerner's Common Sense Media review, by contrast, described the core as "an oddly sweet love story of two teens" beneath the raunch, while advising adults only.<sup>[15](https://www.heatherboerner.com/pdf/csm1206-nakedmile.pdf)</sup>

The MPA rated the film R for pervasive strong sexual content and crude humor, nudity, language, drinking and some drug use, all involving teens.<sup>[1](https://www.the-numbers.com/movie/American-Pie-Presents-The-Naked-Mile-%282006%29)</sup> Common Sense Media's parents' guide notes extensive male and female nudity during the race sequence and constant profanity.<sup>[16](https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0808146/parentalguide/)</sup>
