Caddyshack II is a 1988 sequel to the 1980 cult classic golf comedy film Caddyshack.The film stars Jackie Mason, Dan Aykroyd, Robert Stack, Dyan Cannon, Chevy Chase, Jonathan Silverman and Jessica Lundy.
Kate Hartounian (Jessica Lundy) and her father, Jack (Jackie Mason), apply for membership at Bushwood, the club from the first movie. When the current members meet Jack, who builds low-income housing, his application to join is rejected. In retaliation, Jack buys the rights to Bushwood and turns it into an amusement park.
The movie made USD $11 million compared to the original's USD $39 million gross at the box office.
Cast reception was negative. Chevy Chase, who reprises the role of Ty Webb, was rumored to have murmured to the film's director Allan Arkush during post-production, "Call me when you've dubbed the laugh-track," before walking away in disgust. Arkush, who also directed Rock 'n' Roll High School in 1979, begged Rodney Dangerfield to come in and save the script at the last minute. Upon reading it, Dangerfield asked, "What's with the ferris wheel?" and dropped it in the wastebasket.
