Scott Colomby (Brian) turned 30 the same year Porky's came out.  Believe it or not, director Bob Clark also directed A Christmas Story. In fact, studios didn't want to produce it but allowed Clark to make it so he would do another Porky's movie. -Thanks to Christine GiesekeAs of mid-1999, this was still the highest-grossing movie made in Canada. Typecast? Kim Cattrall (Honeywell) plays yet another sex-raving role in "Sex And The City". This is Kim Cattrell's first nude scene and maybe her only one up until she did 'Sex and the city'. Some may argue she did a nude scene in 'Live Nude Girls' but she was wearing a teddy for that love scene. -Thanks to LisaThe actor who played Porky's Brother (the police man) and the actress who played the hooker (married to the black man supposedly) are the famous on-duel couple of "Webster": and for those who don't know are a real life couple. I have yet to see either one do a movie or tv show without the other. -Thanks to LisaOne of the top collector pinball machines is a game called "NIP IT".. produced by BALLY in 1969-1970. In the climatic scene... when the boys from ANGEL BEACH pull PORKY'S down, look closely as the place collaspses into the water: there is a "NIP IT" pinball machine sitting on the deck and low and behold, goes right into the water along with the rest of PORKY'S! -Thanks to DEREK MOOREThe sexy thin girl Wendy was played by Kaki Hunter. Kaki currently resides in Moab, Utah where she is white water rafting instructor and is also involved with earth bag building. She has written a book about it. I have talked with her on several occasions, and she is very open about her experience with the Porky's Triology. Bob Clark is perhaps best known for "A Christmas Story," but also made the 1974 shocker "Black Christmas," considered by many to be a modern horror classic. -Thanks to apchat« Click here to add some Porky's trivia  Find much more great trivia in the filmmaker's commentary on the Porky's DVD.Rediscover your favorites!

I was on the crew of the original Porky's film. The exterior of Porky's was built on what is now Oleanta state park just off Sunny Isles Blvd. In North Miami. The final scene where Porky crosses the county line was shot on what is now the North Miami Campus of Florida Int'l University. In 1982 it was just empty roads running through the woods. The location was about 3/4 mile south of the University's 151st street entrance. The High School exteriors (and the courtyard) were shot at a former school on Miami Beach (Miami Senior High). The night dance scene and the exterior "secret" entrance to the girls shower were also shot here. The shower was a set built for the film. The interior of Porky's was filmed in a now demolished restaurant just off the 79th street causeway in Miami (Frank Sinatra also made a movie there in the 60's). Cherry Forever's house was built as a set in Greynold's Park in North Miami Beach. The beach restaurant (site of the "Mike Hunt" gag) was filmed on Hollywood Beach (Florida). [Thanks to Porky's crew member] The school Gymnasium shown in the movie is at Miami Senior High located in Miami, Florida. [Thanks to Alexander Farfan and Kat] Can you help? Do you know any of the Miami, Florida (or any other) filming locations used for Porky's? [Please send them in] | |||||||||||||||||||||||
