Meatballs III: Summer Job
1987 film by George Mendeluk
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Meatballs III: Summer Job is a 1987 comedy film and the third installment in the Meatballs film series. It is the first of the series to be rated R.[1] Whereas Meatballs Part II was unconnected to the first movie, this film follows an adult Rudy Gerner, one of the main characters from Meatballs, now working a summer job for an angry boss named Mean Gene. Unlike the first two movies, this one is not set at summer camp, but rather at a nearby marina.
