A Pig's Tale (1996)
Kids' comedy with all the clichés. Six boys (hero, pudgy, dumb, romeo, etc), reluctantly sent to summer camp, are grouped together in a ramshackle hut, and instantly identified as losers and outcasts by the overconfident camp bullies, who target gorgeous Tiffany (Jakub) as their Lothario's girlfriend. They set out to make everyone's life miserable as they impose their authority on the other kids and ineffective counselors alike. Andy, the good-guy hero, of course has a crush on Tiffany, but hasn't a clue how to approach her. Gradually, the nice guys gain the edge over the bullies, by honest endeavor and standing up for themselves - and in doing so, win over the other kids, even Tiffany. Until the bullies frame them and have them expelled.

That was an excellent one.
Captivating movie !
It is not deep, but it is fun to watch. It does have a bit more of an edge to it than other similar films.
It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...
This is such a good movie it's very strange why on earth this hasn't been released onto DVD yet?!? Have they lost the original movie reel :oI really think this should make its way into DVD as just like the stupids it was a very good under the radar mid 90s filmI assume the issues maybe with the film companies that have changed hands and the rights haven't transferred?This really needs to be made onto DVD when VHS sells at over £50 it shows people will buy it!
A Pig's Tale A Brilliant, Funny, Thrashing, Exciting, Adorable Yet Cool Family Childhood Film. Amazing acting from all of the child stars. Especially Graham Sack and Lisa Jakub they both played lovely parts and connected well together throughout the film.Paul Tassie directed A Pig's Tale very good from my point of view. Todd Richardson, Scott Sandorf, and Charles Ransom wrote the film and brought together a amazing story and turned into film. A Pig's Tale was a exciting and funny adventure for all families to enjoy.It's a kid's comedy of the summer at summer camp where anything can happen. "Summer camp will never be the same." Six boys who are pigs will forever bring a big adventure for all families. AWESOME COMEDY!
This movie is on along the same lines as Thrashin', and Camp Nowhere, absolutely brilliant. Yes Prodution value is relatively terrible, the storyline is what some would call lame or just plain terrble, but that doesn't matter. What matters is the fact that this movie is awesome. Anyone who is a fan of cheezy movies of the nineties, this is for you, clichés run rampant, heroes are forged by trials of fire, and overly elaborate pranks are pulled, and did i mention there is a heroic waterskiing scene. If you ever get a chance to watch this movie you will be lucky beyond measure, its a treat for all intelligent human beings.
I saw this movie one weekend the same as the guy who saw it on showtime or what not and I love this movie since my first viewing. Now every time i get a chance i watch it. The story is full of cliches but it makes it more cheesy fun. Andy (Graham Sack) reluctantly goes to summer camp and is immediately sent to the outcast cabin (The Pigs) There he meets fellow outcasts that help him stand up to the bullys(the wolves) and get the girl Tiffany (Lisa Jakub of Mrs Doubtfire fame ;). I would Recomend this great move to anyone who isnt narrow minded and trashes everything they see! 10/10
