A Pain in the Ass (original title L'emmerdeur) is a 2008 French black comedy, Francis Veber's remake of Édouard Molinaro's 1973 movie with the same name. It's worth noting that Veber was the playwriter for the original movie.

The following weapons were used in the film A Pain in the Ass (L'emmerdeur) (2008):
