"Christ. Seven years of college down the drain. Might as well join the fuckin' Peace Corps." National Lampoon's satire on early-'60s college life, in which the merrily debauched members of a lowlife fraternity declare total war on sobriety, social conventions, academic standards, anybody in authority and much of civilization as we know it. The original slob comedy, and as a celebration of all-out anarchy, a throwback to the Marx Brothers. Belushi at his most crazed.

Stephen Furst
(1954-2017)
