mark.waltz Calling Kurt Russell and Medville College! Riding around in a van reminiscent of the one from Scooby Doo, a group of unambitious senior college students start a sex survey group to help them get laid and live life they want to in order to avoid responsibility. It becomes more successful than their wildest dreams, so they must find men willing to pay to help them out, and that's the whole plot in a nutshell.It's not difficult to imagine what kind of movie venue this played in 1978, and it wasn't the kiddie matinée of Disney's college romps that while mediocre at best are still a massive improvement over this. Any film that starts its credits with a list of "A" actors not in the film is heading for desperation, and while the cast is filled with mostly likable unknowns, they certainly are not in the caliber of Newman, Redford, McQueen, Pacino, etc. Edward Andrews, a veteran of the Disney comedys, has a small role, but his presence simply points out the rip-off of the Disney films with lots of T&A included. Alan Reed, as the eccentric scientist whose study is the sexual prowess of the young, does nothing to add any humor to this. "Three's Company" fans will recognize Priscilla Barnes (the last of the roommates) and savvy soap fans will recognize Jeffrey Byron as one of the college kids who gets wheeled in from the van while still in bed with a young woman into their dorm. Hey Hey We're the Monkeys!
whpratt1 Group of college boys don't want to leave their college and ask their parents for more funds so they can further their education with other college degrees. In other words, they really want to be professional students and live a carefree live at the expense of the parents or other people. These college guys come up with some wild ideas concerning the complete cooperation of plenty of females as well as, a nutty professor who is studying the sex life of an insect. This is definitely a sexy comedy with plenty of nudity and this film pulls no punches at a certain religion and peoples deep beliefs in a Higher Power. However, it is a comedy and you have to view it as a big joke to have been produced and directed. Dennis Quaid and Priscilla Barnes gave an outstanding performance.
thetruthseeker This movie was absolutely hilarious. Yeah, it didn't make an overabundance of a lot of sense, but I laughed until I shot various fluids through my nose. The only bad part of the movie is when they get philosophical for about 8/10ths of a second towards the very end. Other than that, this film is pure hilarity. Dennis Quaid is brilliant in this film in ways I cannot describe in human language. For the inevitable bit of pretension, I see this movie as a wonderful mockery of the educational and corporate structures that make up our great society. To return to reality, it's a great sex comedy/satire that could only have hit screens in the late great 1970's. Go see it now!
rwint Dumb,dumb teen sex comedy about a group of college guys who open up a bogus sex clinic. The characters are so dull and stereotyped that you might as well be watching a movie of walking zombies. Does feature a great topless scene by Priscilla Barnes. Yet not her, nor a great cast of character actors, including Alan Reed voice of Fred Flinstone, can help. Has the audacity to start preaching life lessons towards the end. Director Amateau, who created the series MY MOTHER THE CAR, will never be considered a talent. Yet DRIVE-IN a similar, earlier feature he did is at least more amusing.
