King Frat Trailers

Set on the quiet campus of Yellowstream University, this comedy follows the rivalries that build between two of the college's fraternities. When they're not mooning everyone they pass and throwing garbage on the lawns of rival frats, the members of the Pi Kappa Delta fraternity are mainly interested in drinking and... well, drinking. When a campus-wide farting contest is announced, Grossout, the leader of the Deltas, is all too eager to stand up, bend over and defend the honor of his fraternity.

I watched this video when i was a kid. I was living at my moms, but i ended up bringing my dads copy home with me and watched it often. Always great for a laugh, even when i watched it recently, it still had all the magic that i remembered. That is rare. Most movies you see after 20 years are not as good as you remember. But this one is.It's stupid, it's gross, it's hilariously funny. The acting is actually quite great, and the humor is non stop and really corny.If you have never seen this one, invite your friends over, grab some beers or wine, and get ready to have a laugh.

Well, I'm going to have to be more careful when I buy these used VHS's in the future because the one I bought of this movie is really the pits! And no, I'm not basing that on the wretched print I just viewed but the fact that there wasn't much creativity in making this Animal House ripoff. I mean, sure, there were some scatological gags in that John Belushi movie but this one is full of them and none of them are remotely very funny! Though the one with the farts used to fuel some fires was a little amusing, ditto that woman getting stuck on a "gorilla's" erection, they weren't amusing enough to remotely save this movie though there was also a funeral scene that, come to think of it, was probably the most absurd thing in this picture though it really made no sense. Okay, I've written more than 10 lines so in summary, if you're curious about this badly-made, amateurish comedy, King Frat should satisfy it soon enough...

This movie severely thrashes all the other college movies out there. It tramples on the "PCU", "Revenge of the Nerds" and "Road Trip", although if you liked any of those you'd love "King Frat". Instead of being one continuous unbelievable story, like "Nerds" or "Animal House", "King Frat" is more of a compilation of vignettes about the frat boys, which, when you think about it, is really closer to what college life is really like: one prank after another. It pulls each scene off well, except the prostitution scene, and keeps themes running through the film. But what separates this film from the rest, and even bigger budget movies with a wider release area, is the characterization. I have never seen a film where the characters are as well portrayed and with such honesty. It's a gem, if you watch this film prepare to be amazed. I've actually had friends write term papers on this movie.Ok, some of the scenes do go nowhere, but that's not the point. It's a movie about college pranksters and if you're looking for Shakespeare, this ain't it. But it is entertaining in a crude, heart-of-gold kind of way. A lot like "Animal House" (John DiSanti plays the Budget Belushi well), of course, but unique and special in itself. It's a shame that "King Frat" didn't get a large theatrical release, or any publicity of any kind, because it really is a pretty good goofy movie. Everyone to whom I showed this movie loved it and I've heard it has a pretty good cult following (in Australia of all places).If you can find it, get it. It's not for everyone but it's a film everyone should give a good fair chance.

This film opened in Seattle only in two drive-in's as KING "#*!x" FRAT with a girl who is not in the movie standing in front of a cartoon frat house. (the second week, the film because 2nd feature to PROM NIGHT). The film has some funny moments, but some gags goes on forever. Desantis, who worked for the director before, is way too old for the belushi part as a fat crazy frat guy. The title song "king Frat" is pretty catchy. The film is under several different titles on video like CAMPUS KINGS (might be public domain). Recommended to high school college kids who want to see ANIMAL HOUSE type film.
