John Landis’ college classic frequently touched on underage sexuality — and occasionally hinted at sexual abuse. In one particularly lewd scene, Larry “Pinto” Kroger contemplates date raping his freshman girlfriend after she passes out nude in his bed. At a crossroads, Larry’s conscience appears in the form of a devil and an angel on his shoulder. On his right, he’s advised to “fuck her brains out,” while the lighter left side of his soul warns, “You will despise yourself forever.” Using his better judgment, Larry rolls the girl in a shopping cart to her house where he leaves her passed out on the front porch for her father to find her.
“I’m proud of you, Lawrence,” the angel says. “You homo,” the devil responds.
