The 1982 classic 'Porky's' helped create the teen film genre. It also spawned three sequels -- 'Porky's II: The Next Day,' 'Porky's Revenge!' and 'Pimpin' Pee Wee' -- and even featured a future A-lister in randy gym coach Kim Cattrall. So where have the rest of the 'Porky's' gang ended up? Let's take a look!
