Meatballs III: Summer Job (1986) is a movie that I recently watched on YouTube. The storyline follows a young man who is a virgin who works in a town that has summer camp and regular various summertime hijinks. He wishes to lose his virginity this summer, but not to the girl who is begging him to sleep with her, but to one of the many hotties in town for the summer. Today is his lucky day, as a recently deceased porn star is given a chance into heaven, but only if she returns to Earth as a ghost and helps our virgin friend. Can the young man and porn star both reach their goals?
This movie is directed by George Mendeluk (Stone Cold Dead) and stars Patrick Dempsey (Grey's Anatomy), Sally Kellerman (Back to School), Shannon Tweed (Detroit Rock City), Isabelle Mejias (Scanners II: The New Order) and Isabelle Mejias (The Hurricane).
This is best known for being Patrick Dempsey's first film. The storyline is unique and a perfect concept for the Meatballs series. I actually loved the biker gang with their boats and jet skis. This also has the classic 80s topless scenes you expect in this genre. Unfortunately, this also has the weakest wet t-shirt contest scene of all time. The comedic content is inconsistent but as you'd expect for the genre. The ending was a lot of fun and a perfect way to close the storyline.
Overall, this is the worst of the first three Meatball pictures, but still worth a watch for fans of the series. I would score this a 5-5.5/10 and recommend seeing it once.
