none of the actors went on to real success
very suprising given how big the film was at the time and how good the cast were.

shareKim Cattrall has probably gained the most success since PORKY'S, but I doubt it had anything to do with the film.
The problem, at least according to some of the actors, was typecasting. A lot of them couldn't get work.

I have to disagree with your thread title. Besides Kim, both Alex Karras & Susan Clark went on to star in the TV show Webster the next year. And Boyd Gaines, who played Coach Brackett, has won 4 Tonys.
Yes - Boyd Gaines was practically unrecognisable as the nerdy Lieutenant in Heartbreak Ridge. A very different character to the gym coach in Porkys, and possibly evidence of his versatility.
shareA lot of them were typecast as "bad actors". We all like the boobies, but there were some terrible actors in this movie.
