Obscure Characters We Like: Carter Prescott in PCU

Jubinville

Are any of you familiar with the movie PCU?  I sure as hell hope so.  I for one think that it gave Animal House a serious run for its money.  I know that most people would probably disagree with me but Jeremy Piven’s character Droz was legendary.  Plus I think it’s funny how Piven is WAY more bald in that movie than he is now.

But let’s get to the topic at hand:  an obscure character from the movie that I happen to like.  Nope, it’s not any of the stoners.  And no, it’s not Moonbeam.  It happens to be a guy that I believe only has one line and one line only….

Remember this?

Tom: You guys used to be in The Pit?
Prescot: I know, it’s sad. The swine in there are dirty, stupid, and worst of all, poor.

That’s right folks.  His name is Carter Prescott, played by Kevin Jubinville and he’s about the most waspy, yacht riding, white supremacy guy in the underground fraternity that David Spade’s character leads.

It’s not that Prescott says much but it’s his haircut, the way he talks, and most specifically grimaces when saying “poor.”  It’s probably the most memorable line in the movie.

The fact that I don’t have a clip of it pains me.  But once I reach the 10 minute mark on searching I have to call it a day.  In any event if you do see PCU again, please look out for this scene.  It’s legendary.

Oh and P.S.  Kevin Jubinville was in 8 episodes of Degrassi High:  The Next Generation playing a guy called “The Shep.”  How awesome is that?

  1. I love this movie. It has so many great characters and scenes.

    My favorite though has to be Droz’s flashback to when he was roommates with David Spade’s character.

    “GO TO SLEEP! IT’S TIME TO GO TO SLEEP! AHHH!”

  2. I wholeheartedly agree: PCU is the best college/frat movie ever. I can literally recite just about every line in the movie on queue. I probably drop at least one line per day on someone; they never get it. Some day…

    I saw Bantam Draper in some serious role awhile back and almost vomited with laughter.
