PCU (1994) 20th Century Fox

Written by Adam Leff and Zack Penn, Directed by Hart Bochner Starring: Jeremy Priven, Chris Young, David Spade, Jake Busey, Maddie Corman, Paula Prentiss, Jon Favreau, Alex Desert, Viveca Davis

Chris, a young pre-frosh on campus, aka a high school senior checking out a prospective college, is assigned to Jeremy and his moribund fraternity of burnouts for an informal orientation. Jeremy the elder guides his charge through the many social minefields of modern campus life in this, the era of Political Correctness. Invigorated by Chris` enthusiasm, Jeremy finds his old fighting spirit and begins to rally his meager forces to fight for his frat`s right to party and pursue hijinx.

The Man, in this case the female college president (Prentiss), lays the smack down in the form of an overdue rent bill on the frat house- a debt which must be paid, lest their crib be sold out from beneath our partying pals.

The battle lines are clearly drawn, as always-but are they? The slobs are betrayed by their preppie would-be ally David and his toadie minions, who have been spying for the president.

Our boys have no choice but to throw a massive house party to pay the rent, drawing even more wrath from the boss lady, her feminist friends and PC allies on campus. Our brave heroes respond by sabotaging a major campus ceremony, winning over the governing board of the entire college as the facile female president goes up in flames. The good guys win!

Young apprentice Chris vows to return in the fall, when he matriculates, and Jeremy gets the cute preppie girl he`d been lusting over. See you in September!

Trivia: Cameo by Maddie Corman from Seven Minutes in Heaven and Some Kind of Wonderful.
