Chip
While there are a lot of standouts in the cast of Animal House, the National Lampoon comedy is also well-known for being Kevin Bacon's first movie. Bacon has a smaller supporting role in the movie as Chip but gets to deliver one of its most memorable lines.Chip is a stuck-up and privileged student who becomes a pledge to the uptight fraternity of Omega House. This Animal House quote from Kevin Bacon comes when Kip joins Omega House. During his initiation, Chip is forced to wear only his under...
Otter
If there is one thing that Animal Houseproves, it is that trusting the people at the fictional Faber college, inside and outside the frat, is a mistake. However, one other thing that the movie makes clear is that the people in this specific frat don't let mistakes get them down, and they often wear them as a badge of honor. They also never learn from them and convince others to let them keep messing things up even worse. In the dialogue that follows this Animal House quote, Otter basically te...
Otter
Otter is the ladies' man of the group and is often quite successful at it. However, he does have a habit of picking some women who happen to be dating his enemies — or worse. The guys go to the grocery store and decide they are going to shoplift a bunch of food. However, Otter has something else in mind when he sees an attractive older woman in the produce department. He tries to hit on her by saying his cucumber was bigger, and it only gets better when he realizes who she is. Otter's attempt...
Katy
Not even girls could convince the bad boys from Delta Tau Chi to straighten up their lives. This was evident when Katy tried to talk some sense into her boyfriend Donald "Boon" Schoenstein. When she realized that he was too busy drinking and partying to care about anything else, she finally set him down at a party. When Katy asked him if hanging with his friends and getting drunk every weekend was what he was going to do for the rest of his life, he admitted it wasn't his plan. Instead, he sa...
Hoover
Once the faculty of Faber College came down on Delta Tau Chi, they sent in people to confiscate everything from their house. This was all part of the plan to expel every member of the frat. Hoover was in shock, and said that they confiscated everything, "even the stuff we didn't steal." Hoover is generally seen as the most responsible member of Delta House, and even he is angry at the disrespect they have shown while also ignoring the fact that they have evidently stolen a lot of stuff. This...
Professor Jennings
Donald Sutherland's movie career is filled with classics, and he was one of the most recognizable faces to pop up in Animal House. Sutherland gets the chance to show off his funny side with his portrayal of Professor Jennings in Animal House, delivering some of the most quotable lines in the movie. Professor Jennings was the source of so many funny Animal House quotes because he cares about the lectures he's giving even less than the students seem to. As he tells his students, he refuses to p...
Bluto
As one of the funniest gross-out comedies of all time, Animal House really leans into the depravity of its main characters, especially Bluto. Played by the late John Belushi, Bluto has become synonymous with Animal House quotes and memorable moments. One of his greatest sees Bluto piling up his tray in the cafeteria and then disgusting the people around him with his eating habits as they look in in horror at his poor table manners. Further showing that he is not afraid of being mocked, he sit...
Mayor Carmine DePasto
In one of the rare scenes that doesn't involve any of the student characters from the movie, Dean Wormer meets with the town mayor to discuss the upcoming college parade. While Wormer objects to the demands of the mayor by suggesting that it isn't right to extort the school, the mayor points out the expenses of the parade and all the free services the school gets as a result. However, he ends his argument "So, if you mention extortion again, I’ll have your legs broken," suggesting he might no...
Neidermeyer
While there are a lot of characters in Animal House that serve as antagonists and prevent Delta House from having their fun, Neidermeyer is the most sadistic of them all. Played by Mark Metcalf, the over-the-top Neidermeyer's military personality leads to many hilarious Animal House quotes. In this scene, Neidermeyer is like a character pulled straight out of a war movie's basic training section, as he would fit in well in Full Metal Jacket, but seems wildly out of place in a comedy like Anim...
Bluto
Some of the funniest Animal House quotes come when the audience that the party-mad Delta frat boys are supposed to be at Faber College to receive an education, something many of them are clearly lacking. Despite clocking in nearly more than double the amount of time that the average college does throughout their academic career, it's obvious that Bluto could still stand to learn a thing or two about WWII. While trying to rally the disheartened frat brothers, Bluto's zeal is somewhat hampered...

May 6, 2016 · Posted on May 6, 2016. Above: “Food Fight!” shouts John Belushi as the irascible John “Bluto” Blutarsky in the film Animal House by Universal Pictures. It was stress time. For UT students in the spring of 1982 – as it is today – the dreaded last week of classes was about as popular as an Oklahoma Sooner at a Longhorn tailgate.
We love a food fight when everyone, except the instigator, starts out especially clean. In Animal House, John Landis’ beloved college classic, it all begins when John Belushi’s character, Bluto, pops his cheeks and mashed potatoes go flying out of his mouth and all over his hostile, preppy tablemates.
