Spring Break

Two pairs of college students end up sharing a room at a Fort Lauderdale motel during spring break. Nelson and Adam are the studious types, while Stu and O.T. are experienced partygoers who take the newcomers under their wing. The four spend their days on the beach and their nights drinking and chasing women. Their vacation is complicated when Nelson's stepfather arrives in the area. He had expected Nelson to work on his Senate campaign instead of holidaying in Florida, and he is not pleased to find the young man enjoying himself. A building inspector threatens the motel with closure, prompting the students to rally around the owner.

The film is a spring break comedy released in March 1983, running 102 minutes. It was directed by Sean S. Cunningham, who also produced, from a screenplay by David Smilow. It followed his 1980 film Friday the 13th in his filmography and preceded DeepStar Six. The main roles are played by David Knell, Perry Lang, Paul Land, Steve Bassett, Jayne Modean and Corinne Wahl.

Made for about 5 million dollars, the film grossed around 24 million worldwide, a strong return on its budget. Audience ratings on IMDb place it at 4.9 out of 10 from roughly 3,800 votes, and on TMDB at 4.9 out of 10 from a much smaller base of votes.
