This Film Rocksssssssss


If you like babes at the beach and a cool story line to go with, watch this movie. I give it a 10. I know this film is not oscar material, but it has the right stuff for a cool teen flick.

Yes this is a great movie to watch! I remember the first time watching this movie was back sometime during the 80's when I was a teenager on HBO or some premium channel. I then saw it again during the 90's on USA Network on a show called USA UP ALL NIGHT.

It brought back a lot of great memories of the movie when I watched it on USA UP ALL NIGHT. This is a great movie to watch.

i used to watch it when i was about 9 or 10 years old hahahahahahahah
this one was probably the sexual initiation of a lotta guys here in brazil, because they used to show it on tv at 1 o'clock in the afternoon!! and in VH1!

The first time I have ever seen this movie was when I saw it a long time ago on HBO or some channel like that.

I remember this movie first playing on cable around the time I got my 1st vcr and would have weekend marathons with these cool cheesy 80's movies I taped over the course of the previous week. 80's movies are cool.

That is why I loved 80's movie due to the cheesiness that they had! It was so great to watch! Hardbodies I watched it when it was on HBO back in the 80's. It was great!

They use to show it a lot at one time on cable but stopped for some reason.

Don't the USA UP ALL NIGHT fans feel cheated, though, with all the T&A films cut for TV? I always wondered this, so I thought I'd ask.

I mean, what's the point of watching a T&A movie in the first place, if they edit out the actual T&A?

Yes I have to agree with you about this LargeStuffedWolf fans must feel cheated that this film has a lot of T&A and it was cut for the TV viewing audience. The problem is that you know there would be mothers and fathers who are prudes out there and complain about them showing this on cable TV. The thing is that the FCC has rules on displaying things like this and that is why the network would lose their license for showing a movie unedited.

Now if you were living in Europe they would show this on TV unedited and not cut out anything at all from the movie. I was shocked when I watched the first Porky's on cable TV in Spain but I loved it because they did not cut out anything at all. That is why they few things differently than what us Americans do here.

Hey that is great to hear! My first time watching this was when I was a teenager and I watched it late one night. I loved it after watching this when I was like 12 or 13 years old! Then I got the chance to watch it on USA UP ALL NIGHT back in the day late at night on the weekends on the old USA Network that was far cooler than what it is now!

I concur. This movie has a certain cheerful and unapologetic raunchiness to it which made it an infectiously easy'n'breezy blast to watch. The wall-to-wall tasty female nudity and gorgeous babes aplenty in skimpy bikinis or less were likewise a joy to behold.

I'm embarrassed to admit this but I love this movie. It's fun and a good piece of 80's nostalgia!

If I tell you I'm ignoring you & you keep replying to me then you're stupid!

I loved it myself! It was a great movie to watch all right!

As an East Coast beach bum, this movie makes me wonder if 25 years ago life as a West Coast beach bum could possibly have been as good as this movie. The motorized surfboard and low-rise bikini bottoms both need to come back at the least. :)

reply

I am not sure on how things are, but I totally agree with you there man about how all the things you stated does need to come back all right!

I agree. This movie is just too much upbeat fun.

What do you think this is, a signature? It's a way of life!

reply

Its definitely a fun, cheesy movie :)

reply

I agree that this is an awesome movie. However, the ending sucked. I prefer darker endings, not the romantic comedy ones.

Metal forever.............
