Editorial Review:
This is one of those movies that works for all the wrong reasons--disgusting, lowbrow, base humor that we are all far too sophisticated to find amusing. So, just don't tell anyone you still think it's a riot to watch John Belushi as the brutish Bluto slurp Jell-O or terrorize his less-aggressive fellow students. This crude parody of college life in the '60s spawned many imitations, but none could match the fresh-faced talent or bad taste of this huge box office success. (Remember all those toga parties in the '80s?) The first of the National Lampoon movies, this was originally released as National Lampoon's Animal House. Keep an eye out for a very young Kevin Bacon in his first credited screen appearance. --Rochelle O'Gorman

There are few films I treasure as much as Animal House. It is to creative comedy what Mozart is to music. I've seen it about 20 times and used to sneak out past my bedtime during childhood to watch it on our family room's television. Every performance--particularly Belushi's, Matheson's, Hulce's and Furst's--was outstanding. Every character resonates and the send up of the fraternity system changed our culture. Animal House is gloriously politically incorrect and harkens back to a time when we used ... Read More

This DVD is a classic. It was fun watching this again, last time seeing it at the theatre and a couple of times on TV. I would recommend it to anyone that was in college in the 60's or 70's.
Rating: - Wild with Traditional 70's-style Humor
This is a classic that no one can afford to miss out on. It's for all generations as long as the viewer is old enough for an "R" film.
See Belushi at his best. The film has well known actors and those who play good support roles.
It's a superb film for Tim Matheson. He's got a great role as do others who fit in excellently with the dialogue and scenes. You'll be rolling on your couch, even if you've got a son considering joining a frat.

The comedy of a generation takes place at Faber College during the Kennedy era. Delta House is the worst fraternity on campus. Its members are known for sex, drinking and bad grades. The assortment of misfits is recognizable. John Belushi is the class clown: "7 years of college down the drain!" Otter is the ladies' man who beds the dean's wife. Neidermeyer is the gung ho ROTC officer: "Drop and give me 20!" Boone and Katy are the incompatible couple. Donald Sutherland is the English teacher having an ... Read More

Is there anything else to say about this movie that you already don't know? Practically everyone's top pick for comedys.
