The Last American Virgin
In the Porky's vein, but very gritty.
It's a goofy 80's "let's all get laid" comedy, but the ending is so depressing that I don't even want to think about it. Everything you ever needed to know about women, you can learn from this movie. It's a must-watch.

I actually owned this book.
Never read and don't know how I got it. It never appealed to me. Posted on 5/18/16 at 9:43 am to HoustonGumbeauxGuy

Was going to add this myself. Would like to add few more Fantasy movies:
Conan the Barbarian: 1st one was great and has some awesome scenes especially when Conan attacks the orgy
Excalibur: Still by far my favorite movie portrayal of Arthurian legend (minus the Holy Grail of course_
Flesh+Blood: Gritty medieval mercenary movie, off the radar and really good. Paul Verhoeven did many other 80's classics.
