Interesting facts

Screwballs is a 1983 Canadian teen sex comedy film directed by Rafal Zielinski and released by New World Pictures. It was one of several films inspired by the success of Porky's.

Production

Following the success of Porky's (1981), producer Roger Corman told Linda Shayne, who had worked for him, that he was interested in a low budget teen sex comedy. Shayne wrote one with Jim Wynorski, who did Corman's advertising and had written scripts for him. Corman liked the script, originally entitled Hide the Salami, and agreed to provide $500,000 of the budget. Shayne arranged for the balance to be found in Canada where the film was shot.

The movie was originally called Crazy Times and was set in 1962 but then this was shifted to 1964.

Jim Wynorski designed the poster and said that he was inspired by Mad magazine. Linda Shayne posed for the blonde figure on the poster.
