Pop star Frankie Avalon and former Mouseketeer Annette Funicello inaugurated the beach movie proper (after Gidget tested the waters) with this celebration of surf, sand, rock & roll music, and, of course, sex. Frankie carries Annette (named Doris in the film) over the threshold of a beach cabin as she whispers "It's just like we're married." "Exactly!" he smiles before tripping over a dozen friends camping out on the floor. Well, not quite, as it turns out in the boys-against-girls contest of one-upmanship and jealous tantrums. Frankie woos the pneumatic Scandinavian Eva Six and Annette flirts with frumpy anthropologist Bob Cummings (wearing a beard that would scare Grizzly Adams). Meanwhile he secretly studies the mating rituals of the beach tribe with his eternally frustrated assistant Dorothy Malone. Harvey Lembeck (from Stalag 17) is the aging juvenile delinquent Eric von Zipper, a spastic motorcycle gang leader, while Morey Amsterdam recites silly beat poetry in a Chinese mask and surf rocker Dick Dale plays bongos and wears a gold earring. Look for bit parts by Beach Boy Brian Wilson (as a surfer) and Peter Falk (as a biker) and a cameo by Vincent Price. This first beach romp is about as sophisticated as a Keystone Kops farce (it ends with a slapstick free-for-all that wouldn't be out place in the silent era), but it's dumb, fluffy fun with lots of hunky boys and pretty bikinied girls shaking their booties and making out. --Sean Axmaker

Something in me said to order this movie because I used to watch it when I was a kid. I'm glad I did. It was delivered right away and I was able to watch it with a few girlfriends who also love the "old beach movies". We had a giggle seeing all the old bathing suit styles and the hairdos. Even though the premise of the movie is old-fashioned it still brought great memories back to us of the times when boys respected girls and the girls who chased boys did it in a decent manner. Thanks for the ... Read More

I should have lived in the 50-60's. These beach party movies with Annette Funicello and Franky Avalon (hubba-hubba) still make me laugh and are the BEST to watch when it comes to a wintery Saturday or Sunday afternoon! I plan on owning a copy of all of their beach movies eventually! Thanks, AMAZON! valilly

I couldn't find the movie locally.
My 11yr & 10yr stepdaughters LOVE these movies!
I enjoy watching them also (not all kids shows are "watchable" for grown-ups).
I am so glad that you have such a huge variety of classics!
I'll be purchasing "Gidget" for my girls' next, they'll love it!
Thank you
