Programmer's Pick
Porky's II swaps brothel brawls for culture wars, but don't worry—the pranks are as unfiltered as ever. Come for the teenage mischief, stay for the showdown with small-town hypocrisy (and a few wardrobe malfunctions).

Cast & Crew
View all →Why Cult
The film uses a high school Shakespeare festival as the unlikely battleground for its raunchy teen rebellion and social commentary.
Unlike most teen comedies, this one pits its pranksters against the Klan, upping the stakes beyond locker room gags.
Set in the 1950s but filmed with a distinctly Canadian exploitation flavor, it's a collision of period kitsch and subversive humor.
Hidden recorders, public humiliation, and creative comeuppance—these teens make revenge an art form.
