The Pom Pom Girls (also known as Palisades High) is a 1976 American film directed by Joseph Ruben. The screenplay was written by Ruben and based on a story by him and Robert J. Rosenthal. The movie was shot on location at Chaminade High School in Los Angeles.[3] The Pom Pom Girls is a low budget sex comedy, which was often popular at drive-in theaters during the 1970's. The film features an early performance by Robert Carradine, who would go onto playing Lewis Skolnik in the 1984 hit movie, Revenge Of The Nerds. The film also features Susan Player Jarreau (as the car hop waitress), wife of Grammy winning singer, the late Al Jarreau.[4]
