Un tombeur de folie

The Party Animal is the funniest movie I have ever seen. I feel this movie is destined to be a cult classic. This movie by far surpasses classics like Animal House and Cheech and Chong's Up in Smoke with curbstone humor.

Unfortunately, I have not been able to locate this movie in any of my searches. If anyone knows where, how and for how much I could purchase this movie, please E-mail me at victorr6000@aol.com. I would really appreciate the assistance.

I forgot to mention that this movie is not family oriented in any way, shape or form. The movie does contain a short scene involving drug use. It also has sexual innuendos and overtones with some nudity.

The plot is a loose excuse for a series of gags that only occasionally work, BUT this movie is so balls out crazy and trashy that you can't help but love the brashness at how far they go. Is it good? Debatable, but it's never boring because it's always going that one step further past good taste.

While the script and the acting are more than lacking, this movie still has many sophomoric moments that had me recalling my awkward youth and all of the heterosexual males out there will to. Excellent soundtrack with Concrete Blonde and the Buzzcocks as the backdrop. If you go into the experience not expecting a lot, and you keep in mind that the movie probably had a budget around 100k(around 50k probably for Timothy Carhart-the only recognizable face in the film), then you will have a good time. Best if viewed with a pack of guys and a few suds, because one of you will be nailed with the nickname Pondo Sinatra; cause this guy was.

Desperate to lose his virginity, a youth from rural Canada goes to extraordinary lengths to get laid in this wacky college comedy with a difference. While the film is let down by annoying stereotypes and too many flatulence gags, it is boosted by a pseudo-documentary narrative style. The film opens with multiple interviews as various individuals comment on how they knew the protagonist when he was still a fumbling fool and before he became famous, which adds a nice sense of mystery to the proceedings as we wait to see what exactly brought about this fame. It is an up and down ride; lead actor Matthew Causey is downright annoying at times with his over-the-top awkwardness around women, but he is very funny at other points (look out for an extended segment in which he is made up to look like a punk rocker). His ventures in an adult shop also lead to some truly uncanny moments as the toys there baffle him and as the shop owner has a penchant for speaking like Marlon Brando. Some of the dialogue is highly memorable too; "get used to it!" exclaims one young woman after Causey pounces on her, crying "but I'm a virgin". And there is the line "hound dog's gonna eat that pussy!" - which really needs to be heard in context to be appreciated. 'The Party Animal' is certainly a bit of a mixed bag, but the highlights are ultimately what stick around in the mind.

This movie has more laughs than nearly any I have seen. A collection of scenerios, this movie moves fast and you can hardly catch your breathe between laughs. My favorite scene? Has to be the fart potion. Trust me, if you don't about die from this one your already dead.
