Cover art for Kino Lorber's Blu-ray of FRATERNITY VACATION!
JAMES FRAWLEY'S OBSCURE 80'S TEEN SEX COMEDY DEBUTS ON BLU-RAY DISC THANKS TO SCORPION RELEASING AND KINO LORBER STUDIO CLASSICS!

While I've seen quite a few teen sex comedies in my lifetime (e.g. PORKY'S, REVENGE OF THE NERDS, WEIRD SCIENCE, etc.) FRATERNITY VACATION is one that I've honestly never heard of! And that's a total shame because holy hell check out this cast: Tim Robbins (SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION), Stephen Geoffreys and Amanda Bearse (both from FRIGHT NIGHT), John Vernon (NATIONAL LAMPOON'S ANIMAL HOUSE and KILLER KLOWNS FROM OUTER SPACE), and Barbara Crampton (FROM BEYOND)! And oddly enough, this film was directed by the late James Frawley who had previously directed THE MUPPET MOVIE! If any of that info piqued your interest Vault Dwellers, then read more about this Blu-ray release below before you commit to buying it!

Synopsis: For Iowa fraternity brothers 'Mother' (Tim Robbins - JACOB'S LADDER) and Joe (Cameron Dye - BODY ROCK), the only way to score a paid vacation in sunny Palm Springs is to take along supreme nerd Wendell (Stephen Geoffreys - 976-EVIL). When they make a bet with a rival frat to be the first to bed a beautiful woman (Sheree J. Wilson - CRIMEWAVE), their getaway goes out of control. Now with the help of some bikini beauties, a bit of creative party crashing and a local girl (Amanda Bearse - FRIGHT NIGHT) with a very dangerous secret, the ultimate Spring Break is about to begin!

John Vernon (ERNEST GOES TO CAMP), Barbara Crampton (RE-ANIMATOR), Kathleen Kinmont (HALLOWEEN 4), Matt McCoy (POLICE ACADEMY 6: CITY UNDER SIEGE), Leigh McCloskey (INFERNO), Max Wright (Alf), Nina Talbot (CHAINED HEAT), Frank Ajaye (CONVOY), Charles Rocket (EARTH GIRLS ARE EASY) and Britt Ekland (THE WICKER MAN) co-star in this outrageous yet good-natured comedy that could only have been made in the 80s, filled with scary fashion, gratuitous nudity, sudden aerobics and music by Bananarama, Con Funk Shun and others.
