When the students of Angel Beach High decide to stage "An Evening With Shakespeare," their efforts are threatened by Miss Balbricker, who views the works of Shakespeare as obscene.

When they succeed with the help of corrupt city officials seeking re-election, the gang don't get mad... they get even!

Very funny and underrated

Rated R for Language and Nudity.

I have not seen the original 1982 film "Porky's".I have heard of it though.It was the highest grossing Canadian made film until "Bon Cop Bad Cop" came out.So I decided to watch Porky's II yesterday night when it was playing on IFC.Porky's II is a teen comedy.Its like the American Pie of the 1980's though I preferred American Pie.The film takes place in 1954, a day after the original Porky's.The film has some very funny moments and if you are a fan of teen comedies, check this one out.This film is about a bunch of teenagers who tries to stop some religious fanatics and the KKK from banning the Shakespeare school play.Many humorous things ensue.Porky's 2 is a very funny film and I recommend it for fans of films such as American Pie.
