I guess I am nostalgic. I have come to enjoy some of the worst movies ever made - - > low-budget drive-in monster movies from the 50's and 60's! This one has not aged well but does fall into the category of so-bad-it's-good. This movie from 1964 has a beach party with a bunch of "teens" (who look like they're in their 30's), a live rock-n-roll band, and a guy in a rubber suit carrying off some of the finest babes! What more can you ask for? Well, for starters, they could have told the lip-synching band to plug in their electric guitars to make the concert a bit more realistic. Plus, there are female voices in the songs but no female singers. What's up with that? I'm not sure what makes this one special but I gave it a five. If it had been worse I might have given it a ten, but it's not quite bad enough. Good for laughs and very entertaining and nostalgic.
Review of The Horror of Party Beach
The Horror of Party Beach
(1964)
I've grown very fond of these 50's/60's "horror" flicks.
