5. Porky's (1982) - This is the 1982 version of what seems to be "Superbad." A journey of young adults searching to find people who they could lose their virginity to. The film's main focus is the boys getting revenge on the strip bar owner and his brother, who is conveniently the sheriff of the town. The original character Pee Wee (Dan Monahan) make it so great. Great for anyone who wants a bunch of cheap laughs at people doing something of this sort, or if they are this sort of person. Overall it has taken its name to fame as possibly one of the oldest, and best, party movies of all time.
6. National Lampoon's Van Wilder (2002) - Van Wilder (Ryan Reynolds) has spent his seven years in college living his dream, to party. When his father finally cuts the funds going to Van Wilder's activities, Van and friends come up with the idea to begin to profit from partying. When the college hears of Wilder's situation they decide to investigate by sending in one of the school's journalists to get the scoop on the matter. Wilder then takes a series of steps to clear his name. Van must then pass his classes so that he can be on his way to graduating. "Van Wilder" is a farfetched movie about college life that you can not help but laugh at. Reynolds' witty sense of humor makes for a very funny film. This is definitely one movie you should watch over spring break.
7. Euro Trip (2004) - The sensational movie about four friends who cross the pond to Europe, all with different things on their mind. Scotty (Scott Mechlowicz) was recently used and dumped by his promiscuous girlfriend and is traveling to Germany to meet the love of his life Fiona (Kristen Kreuk). Cooper (Jacob Pitts) is going to search for kinky European sex that he has only heard about in stories. Their friend Jenny (Michelle Trachtenberg) wants to be swept off of her feet by a rich European man and sail with him through the sea's for months on end. The group is rounded out by Jenny's twin brother Jamie (Travis Wester), who is a genius when it comes to foreign affairs and European culture and wants to see the historical sites. Their disagreements and misguided German speaking skills lead them on multiple adventures in which they encounter priceless scenarios.

The greatest party movie of all time. I have the out of print version. I don't know what extra features this version might or might not have.
