Loucademia de Esqui

On Whistler Mountain, Dave Marshak (Dean Cameron) leads a group of misfits including his best friends Fitz Fitzgerald and the sleepy Ed Young in the Section 8 ski school. They face the All Star Ski School led by Reid Janssens in the Annual Spring Pageant. Dave has an eye for his girlfriend Lori. John Roland is the new kid on the slopes. It's a world of pranks and sexual escapades.

It wants to be Animal House on skis. Dean Cameron has a certain charm. It doesn't rise up to that level. It's not even close. There are boobs. There are jokes. It has a sense of innocent fun. It's a very lightweight sex comedy.

These first Ski School alone is difficult to sit through sober, the cheese factor is absolutely through the roof. I can't imagine any sane person watching both of this and Ski School 2 back to back. I recently watched this in a moment of nostalgia, and realized I had absolutely terrible taste in movies as teen. Even thought this came out at the beginning of the 90's, the stench of the late 80's had not completely died yet. And since the first film was shot in the very tail end of the 1989, you could technically call it an 80's movie. But even that's a hard sell, because that would mean you also consider this to be an actual movie when in reality it is just a brain-cell-destroying debacle of cliche slinging corn ball humor smothered in neon colored cheese.

I was just browsing my friend's movie collection and came across "Ski School". I almost put it down without even saying anything because I thought it was gonna be a dumb movie about skiing competitions, but I asked him about it and he said "It's funny, and it's got naked women in it." As SOON as I heard that, I shoved it in. To my surprise, it was a pretty good movie. As many have said, it's a very quotable movie: "In order to be the best, you must lose your mind!" -- "Welcome to my kingdom, I will bed you all before the night is through!" -- "You, get beer! You, get...beer! You, get...laid!" -- and many, many others. With a combination of non-stop jokes, partying, naked women, and skiing, this is definitely the perfect comedy for guys.

And also to my pleasant surprise, it has an awesome soundtrack -- they play 2 songs from one of my favorite bands, Lock Up, which is guitarist Tom Morello from Rage Against The Machine's old band -- "Punch Drunk" and "Half Man, Half Beast". If you haven't seen this movie, you MUST! It deserves the publicity. 10/10 for entertainment value.

Sure, this flick would never be an Oscar contender, but does anyone really give a flying monkey! The important thing is that you can sit back, view this mayhem, and chuckle yourself into convulsions! Rising star of the slopes John E. Roland (Tom Breznahan, brother of Kevin and star of horror flicks such as The Brain (1988), Twice Dead (1988) and Mirror, Mirror (1990)), winds up in the infamous section 8, a collection of party animals led by Dave Marshack (a very amusing Dean Cameron - why this guy never became famous beats the hell out of me?), who is far more interested in beer and babes - who wouldn't be!!!, rather than being the saint of the slopes. Along with other members Ed (Patrick Labortyeaux, brother of Matthew) and "Fitz" Fitgerald (who equally matches Dean Cameron is the comedy department, who, too, deserves more these days), they set out to claim the mountain and win the annual event when they learn they're being forced out of their accommodation, due to their rowdy nature. Throw in some gorgeous females, most notably the stunning Charlie Spradling (wife of Jason London), and you have all the ingredients of a cult classic. Sadly, only Dean Cameron was to return for the sequel, due to financial difficulties. He, alone, makes the sequel worthwhile. So, settle in one evening, grab some beer and pizzas, then sit back and take in this madcap flick!

I love this movie and I think dean Cameron doesnt get enough respect for his acting hes funny as hell. I totally agree this is an awesome ski movie but as far as the best Id have to go with HOT DOG. But still a great movie part one and two
