I haven't seen OLD SCHOOL yet, so it's not on my list. However, here are a few (I'll keep the list short to give everyone a chance to participate):

* ANIMAL HOUSE (of course)
* KING FRAT (a great movie to see with your buddies at a midnight screening)
* HOLLYWOOD KNIGHTS
* PORKY'S
* THE WANDERERS
* SIXTEEN CANDLES
* H.O.T.S.

And my favorite, which is more of a drama, and is certainly the best written, directed, acted, photographed, etc., of the bunch: AMERICAN GRAFFITI

Breakfast Club
Fast Times at Rigdemont High

Funny though, IMO they don't stand that well seeing them 15 years later

Hollywood High is an amazing very obscure film.

I saw one with David Hasselhoff and these totally insane cheerleaders?  It was really old.  Totally over the top.  They put drugs in the schools food.  can't remember the title

King Frat was amazing "Holy s**t!!...fart contest!!"

I thought Not Another Teen Movie was 5 stars.

Couple more I can't remember, generally involving cheerleaders circa 1979-81

Would "Carrie" be considered a wacky high school movie?

Midnight Madness is a lesser known classic of the genre.  I love it so much....wacky 1980's scaveneger hunts are top drawer.

Risky Business

Both are prime examplesz of excellent teenage mayhem!!!!

Dont forget American pIE SERIES, with the third coming out soon!!!!

I love that movie!

I just bought it  on DVD.

I highly recommend picking this one up.

Best Buy has it on DVD for $10.

It has to be one of my all time favorite 80's movies!

Check it out!

There were also dozens of low budget movies like FRATERNITY VACATION, TOGA PARTY, and THE PARTY ANIMAL that tried to capitalize on (aka rip off) ANIMAL HOUSE.

You guys are hitting most of the popular ones, but you're missing all the really lowbrow stuff.  Take movies like JOCKS or PREPPIES or WIMPS.  Then there's HAMBURGER. . . THE MOTION PICTURE, which takes the place at Busterburger University.

I have one of those 10 movies on 5 DVD's box sets called TOGA PARTY.  It's a collection of exactly these cheap T&A comedies (and THE HARRAD EXPERIMENT, for some reason).

Of course, there's also any number of movies with the words "spring break" in the title.  I have one movie from the 80's called COMPUTER BEACH PARTY.  80's computers, you gotta' love 'em.  Speaking of which, JOYSTICKS would fit nicely here.

Anyway, I could go on and on about these crappy movies.  If anybody is into indie comics, Sam Henderson, who does THE MAGIC WHISTLE, has pretty much nailed the teen comedy formula mercilessly into the ground.  Check it out.

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.
