Porky's (1982)


"Porky's" is the story of a group of high school kids in the 1950s dealing with one thing: sex.  Some of them are virgins and they want to lose their virginity.  They decide to visit a whorehouse called Porky's.  After Porky takes their money and kicks them out, a revenge plot is planned to take Porky out.  

"Porky's" is different than what I expected.  It is constantly about sex.  It never slows down to really build stories.  It is just hilarity followed by hilarity.  

Kim Cattrall is in this picture and she plays a gym teacher.  Another gym teacher starts to go out with her, but he is being teased by his fellow co-worker about it.  The co-worker keeps referring to Cattrall as Lassie.  He will not say why though.  One day, the gym teacher and Cattrall go into the boy's locker room and they start to have sex, since the smell of boy's dirty clothes turns Cattrall on.  Once they start, she starts howling extremely loud, much like a dog.  He finally figures it out.  This was a pretty funny scene.  The best part of the scene is that everyone in the gym can hear them and their reactions are great.

My favorite scene is when one of the boys puts his penis in a hole in the girl's shower room.  The ugly, obese female gym teacher sees this and grabs on.  She holds on for dear life, but he finally gets free.  She then runs to the Principal's office and demands a penis lineup.  It was hilarious!

Even though "Porky's" lacks in developing a deep relationship with any one character, it is still a fun movie.  There are many funny scenes and the comedy holds up today.

B  I recommend it.
