Nice effects though.

I wanted to but couldn't!

good back-story, and good acting

Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.

Well, it's a sympathetic sequel in a way, addressing rotten politics and racism for instance. But, uhm... where's Porky? And more importantly, where's the fun? Some of it feels like a mediocre rehash of the first Porky (graveyard). Some of it is just NOT funny (restaurant, snake). BUT... some of it is pretty good (mohel, rally, broken off sword).Again, the acting looks like they had a good time, but I didn't enjoy it that much. The fore-mentioned themes are admirable qualities in a film like this, don't get me wrong, but the ratio is off; there's too little fun and too much seriousness.Very mediocre stuff, all in all; 4 out of 10.

I've seen this movie lots of times, and it remains one of the most funniest movies ever made in my book!The entire sex-starved gang of Angel Beach High have returned, with a few new faces for "Porky's 2: The Next Day", and they're more ripe than a truckload of bananas in this one.Talk about funny! These bozos are doing everything possible to save their Shakespeare performance in a subplot that's loaded with laughs. In one memorable moment, Principal Carter screams to the domineering Reverend Flavel to "Get The Flock Outta Here!", which almost sounds like something else he said. There's a brief sound of whimpering from the Principal Carter, then a look of shock from the kids, and suddenly a burst of applause for his heroics.Then there's the revenge on Ms. Ballbricker, the mean fat gym teacher from hell. While she's sitting on the toilet singing in a voice so awful, a snake emerges from in the toilet, causing Ballbricker to scream her ugly head off and run for her life while crying for her mommy, too! In my opinion, that one moment in the entire movie caused me to laugh my ass off. Wasn't life easier in school back in the 1950's? I think so.Did I forget that the gang also battles the KKK that turns into a another laugh riot that's sure to cause heart failure.Altogether, this movie is hilarious despite what others say. And there can never be another Bob Clark around to direct such funny, laugh-til-you-cry movies such as "Porky's 2".If you haven't seen this, then you're hurting!

As often happens, this sequel to PORKY'S (1982) is inferior to the original - but, then, neither is it as bad as Leonard Maltin claims in his esteemed Film Guide! It does cheat by forsaking the titular establishment entirely, though the formula is pretty much the same as before - except that here some of the characters from the original disappear and are replaced by new ones, while the girl who was involved with the protagonist in the first film gets a bigger part this time around. Again, the film pits a certain minority - in this case, American Indians - against a bigoted community.While the film's major asset has to be the over-the-top characterization of the hypocritical Reverend, there are almost as many belly laughs here as in the original. Scenes that particularly stand out are the 'Shakespeare v. Bible' quoting duel (even if it's kind of silly and out-of-character to have the boys involved in putting on a show of the Bard's work in the first place) and the individual come-uppance of the gang's various antagonists - the KKK (in the school gymnasium), the duplicitous board member (humiliated in a restaurant prior to re-election) and the aforementioned evangelist and his flock (at their own rally).P.S. Interestingly, co-writer Alan Ormsby had previously collaborated with Clark on his first two horror outings - CHILDREN SHOULDN'T PLAY WITH DEAD THINGS (1972; which I've never watched) and DEATHDREAM (1972)!

Bob Clark's untimely death in a car crash a few days ago brings to mind his career, including "Porky's II: The Next Day". This one hilariously continues the get-laid-at-any-cost adventures of the teenage boys portrayed in the original movie. The actual plot has their school putting on a production of Shakespeare plays and getting threatened by the Ku Klux Klan, an angry clergyman, and hypocritical politicians. Of course, it's all an excuse for any crazy idea that they can dream up. I nearly laughed myself hoarse during the restaurant scene, not only at what was happening but also trying to imagine how much fun they must have had filming it! Anyway, it's just a pleasure to watch, particularly with what happens in the cemetery, and the whole end sequence. This was a sequel that equaled its original. And if you remember the "electric sex" from "A Christmas Story", check out the Shakespeare performance here! Just hilarious. To play off of what another Porky famously said: th-th-th-that'll never be all, folks! In conclusion: Bob Clark, wherever you are, we'll always remember you, if only for the "Porky's" movies.Bob Clark directed flicks as different as the "Porky's" movies, "Children Shouldn't Play with Dead Things" and "A Christmas Story". The things that we see in life...
