Life was such a gas... or jus smelled like it. My favorite character has always been Eric Von Zipper (He rocked). Anyways, If you also dug those films check out this sight Vavoom... :drink: http://www.briansdriveintheater.com/annette.html [ Edited by: MTKahuna on 2003-07-17 17:07 ] [ Edited by: MTKahuna on 2003-07-17 18:08 ]

K Klas Tiki Socialite Stockholm, Sweden Joined: May 04, 2003 Posts: 226	K Klas Posted posted on Fri, Jul 18, 2003 6:06 AM I think my favourite is Bikini Beach What I really enjoy in the films, besides the cool california mid 60's backdrop, is the music score with acts like Dick Dale, The Pyramids and The Hondells. Also girl singer appearances like Leslie Gore and Donna Loren are way cool. Below is a link to a site that handles the music of the beach party movies: http://www.beachpartymoviemusic.com/default.asp

Favorite ski bum flick "Get Yourself A College Girl". Hey BK, Was Horror at Party Beach a slasher film? Does anyone remember this old 60's B flict about these sea creatures that crashed this slumber party? The honies were all dressed in little nighties and thought that it was their boyfriends playing a joke.... but instead, it was these knarly scaley dudes. TC makes me remember so many happy childhood memories.... Good times!

Then the creature attaches itself and grows inside the exaust pipe... creepy stuff.... Ahhh 60's horror films
A AquaZombie Member Thrillville Joined: Aug 01, 2003 Posts: 461	A AquaZombie Posted posted on Fri, Aug 1, 2003 2:25 PM Speaking of "Horror of Party Beach" I'm showing an uncut (meaning it has the complete slumber party massacre scene) 16mm print at Copia in Napa as part of my "Thrillville Halloween Beach Party" road show on Monday, October 27. see http://www.thrillville.net for details (schedule page) Also, someone approached me at the Parkway last night and gave me a CD of an original music score they wrote and recorded for a musical theater version of "Horror of Party Beach" approved by Del Tenney! Of course, they can't find a venue willing to produce and promote it. The Parkway doesn't have a cabaret license (hasn't stopped me much before, though) but I'll see what I can swing. Meantime, anyone out there know of any offbeat, creative theater houses looking for cool, unusual stuff, let me know. Also wanted to give a big shout out here to our late friend Deborah Walley, a true beach bunny icon. She was in my favorite (Nex to "Horror of Party Beach"),"Beach Blanket Bingo."

My friend's 7 year old daughter just caught wind of these movies, her dad told her to ask her "Auntie Teri" about them. I just wrote a long winded blog about my youth and Beach Party movies http://stufforama.blogspot.com/2007/06/beach-party-movies-oh-yeah.html I discovered the boxed set collection is coming out July 10th! Joy! My friend's daughter loves what little clips I've found on you tube. I can't wait to watch the whole films with her!

It is neat to hear how young kids are getting in to these. :)

On Weeknights, they have a line up of classic 60s sitcoms: Bewitched, I Dream of Jeannie, Partridge Family, etc.

Why wasn't the girl's hair flying back when she was skiing? Let's see a modern remake of "Clambake" please. This time she should really be skiing.
