I am curious to check out some more 80's beach, summer, party movies. Before I purchase, do you guys know any of these? What do you think? Which ones should I get? Which ones should I stay away from. Also, any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Back To The Beach Party Camp Gimme An F Private Resort Hardbodies Summer Job

Back To The Beach will have you doin' the Jamacia Ska in no time!

Hardbodies with Scotty Palmer is a classic. Back To The Beach is probably the best movie on your list. Gimme An F has cool cheerleading routines, but the acting is weak. Private Resort has Johnny Depp in a cheesy comedy. Summer Job is a notch behind Private Resort. Party Camp wants to be Meatballs, but it's not.

Ah yes, but they forgot to tell you one thing: As silly as PRIVATE RESORT is it has Johnny Depp naked!!!!!

I agree with Valley on this totally for sure!!!!

Hardbodies is cool. Check out Fraternity Vacation. It's available on DVD by Anchor Bay. Tim Robbins stars in it. Seeing Tim Robbins in it is like watching Tom Hanks in Bosom Buddies. Saying that, I don't mean Tim wears a dress. It's just funny watching the early work of actors who now play serious roles.

Thanks guys, I appreciate your input. Valley, since you didn't say that any of my picks were god awful, I think I'm going to check em all out ! What else do I have to do in the dog days of summer? And if Johnny Depp is naked, you know I'm there!

You probably have it already, but 'SPRING BREAK' is a must have too! I wonder if anyone has the songs from the girl group in it?
Posted by mamamiasweetpeaches (Member # 1715) on :
I dont know about that , but I know the gals from VIXEN were in one of the HARDBODIES movies.
Posted by Valley (Member # 1322) on :
I'll second what Richie says about the movie "Spring Break". There were several movies made in the 80's about Spring Break, but this movie was by far the best.

Back to the Beach is a classic.
Can someone please tell me how Bobby (Demian Slade) only has 2 movie roles, he was hilarious in this one as well as the small bit part as the paperboy in Better Off Dead

Devo, I actually sw the Spring Break soundttrack on vinyl, but I didn't get it in tim e before the owner closed his store for good. Are you talking about the actual songs on the soundtrack, or extra ones not included on it?
