'''''Caddyshack II''''' is a 1988 American [[sports film|sports]] [[comedy film]] and a sequel to the 1980 film ''[[Caddyshack]]''. Directed by [[Allan Arkush]] and written by [[Harold Ramis]] (who co-wrote and directed the original ''Caddyshack'') and [[PJ Torokvei]], it stars [[Jackie Mason]], [[Robert Stack]], [[Dyan Cannon]], [[Dina Merrill]], [[Jonathan Silverman]], [[Brian McNamara]], [[Marsha Warfield]], [[Paul Bartel]], and [[Randy Quaid]] with special appearances by [[Chevy Chase]] and [[Dan Aykroyd]]. It tells the story of a wealthy and widowed real estate developer who goes up against Bushwood County Club's snobbish president in a golfing tournament.

While the writing of the film is officially credited to Ramis and Torokvei, the first-draft script by Ramis and Torokvei was rewritten by other uncredited writers.

The sequel was panned by critics and is considered one of the worst sequels of all time.<ref name="SI" /> However, [[Kenny Loggins]]' "[[Nobody's Fool (Kenny Loggins song)|Nobody's Fool]]" which was used as the film's theme song was a chart success where it hit #8 on the [[Billboard Hot 100|''Billboard'' Hot 100]].
