Meatballs 4 (1992)

Film Title: Meatballs 4
Also known as: Happy Campers, Summer Vacation (UK)
Released: March 6, 1992
Directed by: Bob Logan
Written by: Bob Logan
Starring: Corey Feldman, Jack Nance & Sarah Douglas

Plot: A struggling water ski camp lays it all on the line when the rival camp across the lake tries to take over.

IMDb: 2.8/10
Rotten Tomatoes: No score
My Score: 1/5

The final film in the franchise, Meatballs 4 started life as a film called Happy Campers but the name was changed just before release to tie into the well known series. Frequent David Lynch collaborator Jack Nance is the owner of a summer ski camp in dire financial straits. To revive his sagging attendance, he hires the hottest ski instructor around, Corey Feldman. Sarah Douglas is the evil owner of the rival, more prestigious camp across the lake. Filled with incredibly unfunny jokes and a tired plot, the film removes the more fantastic elements of the last two Meatballs films (aliens and ghosts) and replaces them with more T&A than all the other films combined. Unfortunately, the rampant nudity is the only thing of any value in the whole mess. J. Trevor Edmond, professional figure skater Deborah Tucker and Playboy Playmates Christy ThomMonique Noel and Neriah Davis co-star.
