ANIMAL HOUSE
"ANIMAL HOUSE" --- (1978) --- MY THOUGHTS: I love this movie! It truly is a (modern-day) comedy classic. No matter how many times I watch it, I'm not able to stop myself from laughing (so hard that I cry)! This movie is great fun ...and, leads to fun! I'm pretty certain that all those kids at Rutgers, never would have had a "Toga Party," let alone a few of them, had they not watched this film! And it is always worth a watch!
SYNOPSIS: "When they arrive at college, socially inept freshmen Larry and Kent attempt to pledge the snooty Omega Theta Pi House but are summarily rejected. Lowering their standards, they try at the notoriously rowdy Delta Tau Chi House, and get in. The trouble is the college dean has it in for the Deltas. He has put them on "Double Secret Probation" and secretly assigned Omega's president the task of having their charter revoked."
