Rated 1.5/5 Stars •  Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/05/21 Full Review chip c THE 70's! yeah dude! Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member It even has a waterbed. Bobby is a simple boy that decides he'd prefer to buy a supped up van for graduation than go to college. He uses the van to try and scoop up chicks, hang out and get high and drunk. He meets a special girl, but she doesn't agree with his teenage behaviors or trying to constantly get her drunk or high to have sex with her. Can Bobby overcome his immature behaviors and get some or will his efforts be for not? "I thought this wasn't supposed to be dangerous." Sam Grossman delivers The Van in his directorial debut. The storyline for this picture is pretty average and wasn't as good as other films in this genre such as Porkys or Animal House. The acting and comedic content was below expectations but the vehicles and settings were cool. The acting was mediocre and the cast includes Stuart Goetz, Marcie Barkin, Danny Devito, and Deborah White. "It's as good as gold." "Nothing is as good as gold." I am a grindhouse and drive-in fan and this is a classic drive-in picture (and is part of the Dugan series from the 70s). This is a below average grindhouse car movie. The premise is disappointing and the execution is a bit clumsy and low budget feeling. I would love to go to the pizza spot from this movie, and I did enjoy the settings and cars in the movie; but other than that, I'd skip this picture. "May you and this van live happily ever after." Grade: C- Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/19/23 Full Review Audience Member I saw this at the drive-in when it first came out. It seemed like a better movie then. It also made me want to get a custom van. (Ended up with a couple of vans) lol Rated 1.5/5 Stars •  Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Audience Member I have to admit to being pleasantly surprised with this teen sex comedy entry from another of those Mill Creek sets. It has some amusingly silly set-ups for the kid to try and score in his new pussy-wagon, as well as the frequent nudity one might expect, plus there's an oddball cameo by Danny DeVito, who they presumably caught on his lunch break from a paying gig and conned into doing a couple scenes on the cheap. Fun for what it is. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Read all reviews
