| Porky's Trilogy (1981-1985) - Welcome To Angel Beach High!  Porky's is a 1981 teen comedy, credited by many as the beginning of the 80s teen genre. The movie took place in 1950s Florida, and followed a group of friends from Angel Beach High School. The group of friends are looking for ways to score, but when they run afoul of Porky, owner of a stip club/bar, they decide to exact revenge! All the while being targets of gym teacher Ms. Balbricker at school. Known performers in the film include Kim Cattrall("Mannequin", "Sex And The City"), and the husband and wife team of Alex Karras and Susan Clark("Webster"). The movie was directed by Bob Clark("A Christmas Story"). The film is the highest grossing of the 80s teen films, bringing in $105.5 million at the box office  Trailer: YouTube - Porky's trailer  Two years later....  1983 brought "Porky's II: The Next Day". Once again directed by Bob Clark, the sequel found our students at Angel Beach High participating in a high school play, while battling and getting revenge on religious fanatics, right-wing bigots, and double talking politicians.  Trailer: YouTube - Porky's II - Next Day  And finally....  The final installment in the trilogy, "Porky's Revenge", came out in 1985. Our favorite Angel Beach High students are graduating, but not without one final blow out. Porky is back, and the boys take action when he threatens their basketball coach to throw the championship game.

| The original Porky's is the highest grossing teen/high school movie of the 80s, and possibly of all time. Not sure about the latter. __________________ Relive Or Discover The Most Magical Decade. The 80s. http://www.fanforum.com/f129/ On Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/barrybgb | |||
