Avis à la une
Mind-numbingly awful 80s sex farce. It's probably one of the worst made movies I've ever seen, but it's so awful that it kind of goes back around to becoming almost fascinating in its pure horridness. Almost. Man, these people have no idea how to construct a gag. You watch it, and you kind of know what they were going for, but it misses its marks by so far that you kind of feel sorry for it. I really do feel sorry for all the poor actors and, especially, actresses who appear in it. The story has five high school guys who plan on getting revenge on the high school's only virgin (Linda Speciale, playing a character named Purity Busch) after she gets them in trouble. Kind of a must-see for lovers of terrible movies.
Oh my god! Screwballs should be at the top of everyone's list for a comedy on bad movie night! The story deals with five horny guys at T&A High(get it?)who try in the vain to attract the attention of the only virgin left in school-Miss Purity Bush! This flick turned the world on to the phenomenon known as strip bowling-which results in the most eye opening scene since the end of Sleepaway Camp and makes good use of spanish fly and magnetism. Acting honors go to Purity's mom,dad and the fat guy in the meatlocker. All in all a classic not for the whole family.
A movie that could only be made in the early 80's. It has a very USA "Up All Night with Rhonda Shear" vibe to it except with a lot more nudity. It's very much Porky's redheaded step child as the entire plot is 5 high school guys trying to see a high school virgin named Purity's boobs. A mission that no man has yet to accomplish. Yes that is the plot.
There's a scene where they go strip bowling and the stereotypical typical nerd gets his member stuck in one of the holes. A couple girls get him all worked up and he "shoots" the ball down the lane for a strike. Why did I give this movie 3 stars again?

Screwballs (1983) is a movie I recently watched on Amazon Prime and tells the tale of T&A High School and a bunch of horny guys doing everything they can to see nude females.
This movie is directed by Rafal Zielinski (Fun) and stars Peter Keleghan (Ginger Snaps), Linda Shayne (Big Bad Mama II), Nanci Chambers (JAG) and Jan Taylor Hendricks (In the Heat of the Night).
The storyline has little to no meat but there are some fun sequences throughout the film. The dialogue and reactions are hilarious and the teachers are over the top cliché. The sign hanging opening was perfect for this genre and the mirror idea in the hall was brilliant. The drive-in and "My First Strike" scenes were great and the pool sequence was pretty random. I will say they did a good job "picking their talent."
Overall this is a movie only worth watching for T&A. I would score this a 4/10 and would go into this with the appropriate expectation.

You don't go into this one expecting Shakespeare, folks. You expect first off, a little skin, and if you are lucky, a lot of skin. You expect broad locker-room type sex jokes. You expect that someone will be sexually humiliated at some point ( a must in the genre ). You expect all the cliques at your high school to be wildly parodied. You expect teachers to be portrayed as Nazis. You go in expecting all this and this film delivers. This movie was made just before video broke big time. Thsi was one of the early hits and many video hounds from way back can fondly look back as this being a rental they enjoyed. Check brain at the door and enjoy. It's all done in s spirit of goofy sexy fun and that is the spirit it needs to be seen in. Would make a great double feature with "Porky's".

- GaffesWhen Purity Busch lies face down on the beach towel, she unties the neck straps of her bikini and spreads them out on the towel, but when she jumps up after being startled, the straps are tied behind her neck.
