Up the Creek
Ah, the 80s, a time when all you needed to make a comedy was a couple of underachieving drunken slobs, an equal number of spotless preppy scumbags, and a dozen or so women willing to take their tops off and flash to the camera. Most of them are now long forgotten, but a few of these slob comedies are still worth watching. This 1984 film from director Robert Butler (Turbulence) is still pretty funny thanks to the engaging performance of Tim Matheson as the leader of the slob pack, and the comic chemistry he builds with a dog named Chuck. Blonde bombshell Jennifer Runyon is the epitome of 80s style/no substance as the girl of every slob's dream.
