national lampoon 's animal house , made in 1978 and set in 1962 , remains one of the -- no , fuck that noise --
* the * funniest movie ever made .
and this is n't just my opinion , either ; everybody knows this , and that 's why about a gazillion inferior rip - offs have been made , trying to duplicate its success .
( pcu anyone ?
and the first person to bring up glory daze gets decked . )
animal house takes place at the fictional faber college , circa 1962 , where the omega frat calls the shots .
these guys are wholesome , clean - cut , model - citizens .
. .
i .
e .
a bunch of assholes .
greg , their leader , is going out with mandy pepperidge , but since the silly bastard does n't believe in pre - marital sex , their relationship never goes further than a quick jack - off under the stars .
neidermeyer is the supreme - bozo of the bunch , walking around with his dick out kicking freshman ass and trying to impress the muff . also hanging around these losers is babs , future universal studios employee and serious bitch .
now let 's just take a peak next door , at the delta house .
over here , anything goes : you wanna throw shit out the window ?
okay .
you wanna crush a bunch of beer cans on your forehead and pour honey - mustard all over your chest ?
go right ahead .
the frat 's leaders are otter and boon ( tim matheson and peter riegert ) .
otter is the ladies ' man , going out with another girl every night , and boon is the comedian .
he 's got a steady - date , katy ( karen allen ) , but she 's sick of playing second - fiddle to a bottle of j .
d .
then there are the others : pinto , a wimp ; flounder , a blimp ; d .
day , a biker ; stork , who may or may not have brain - damage ; and last but not least . . .
bluto !
bluto , played by the late ,
great john belushi , is the man .
he 's the kind of guy who slugs back entire fifths of whiskey then proclaim , " i needed that .
"
the kind of guy who puts a cream - filled snowball into his mouth , puffs up his cheeks and spits it out , and then says " i 'm a zit -- get it ?
" the story is as follows : the omegas are getting the deltas kicked off campus .
the deltas , knowing that fighting the omegas is stupid , decide to go out with style , throwing a wild toga party and ruining the homecoming parade .
this is the fucnniest movie int he history of the world
. do yourself a favor and go see it .
