Horny teenagers wanting to see the tits that they can’t see. The film documents the lengths to which this group will go to accomplish that. I thought it was a great little comedy and especially was fond of Linda Shayne a.k.a. Bootsie Goodhead.
Another in the ‘balls’ genre that you may want to check out is Oddballs. More of a summer camp comedy than a teen comedy, still pretty funny. Plus, you get Foster Brooks. Always a plus in my book.

Screwballs tries to be everything to everyone and it only succeeds occasionally.
