Director : John Landis
Running Time : 104 mins

It's the 1960s, and the students of Delta House are by far the worst at their college. Dean Wormer (Vernon) plots to get rid of the fraternity in the hope of improving the college's reputation, but every plan he has to disband the gang results in the fraternity, lead by John 'Bluto' Blutarsky (Belushi), to revolt against Wormer and attempt to save their fraternity from going under.

This has some of the silliest jokes and most off the wall food fights imaginable. Animal House has resulted in decades of comedies that probably never would have seen the light of day if not for its inventive comedy and forward thinking humour. John Belushi is at the height of his career in this, and it's sad he died only a matter of years after this brought him to the fore.
