I don't know about you fellow rewinders but I really dig the summer beach movies of the 80's. In particular, I really like summer rental, summer school, and one crazy summer. What movies am I missing here? I need to satisfy this craving so give me your favorite 80's summer movies maybe involving a beach.

Malibu Bikini Shop Blame it on Rio Hardbodies Where the Boys Are 84'

Hardbodies and Hot Moves
I also like summer camp movies like Meatballs and Little Darlings.

Devolution here,
Back to the Beach.
We are DEVO

I'm not a huge fan of these , but they are Spring Break types:
FRATERNITY VACATION SPRING BREAK or if you need a little gore BLOOD BEACH!
Posted by Chris the CandyFanMan (Member # 3197) on :
Don't forget Summer Rental and Weekend at Bernie's.
Posted by mamamiasweetpeaches (Member # 1715) on :
SHAG was on a beach, wasnt it?
Posted by Riptide (Member # 457) on :
The Beach Girls Hot Resort Hot Chili Summer Fantasy Beach Fever
I think there was a movie too called Summer Lovers in 82 with Darryl Hannah.

These movies arent about the beach but the beach sceens are unforgetable.
Karate Kid Top Gun Side Out

Karate Kid Top Gun Side Out
"Side Out" came out in 1990.
I wish I could give some unique titles, but I'll just have to second Devo's call for "Back To The Beach".

Don't forget "North Shore", if you're going to talk about a great Beaches you need to include Hawaii. Don't be such a Barney. Posted by rocksteadyflamethrower (Member # 1065) on :
Well, actually...
It's not a traditional movie in this category, but why not include "Beaches"? It's right in the title and the last half-hour or so of the movie takes place on the beach.
Sincerely,
John Kilduff

Hot Pursuit The Flamingo Kid Ine Crazy Summer Summer Rental Summer School Side Out *Technically this is 90's but has 80's stars* C. Thomas Howell and Courtney Thorne Smith

Lots of movies that year had 80s stars...It still doesn't count.
Sincerely,
John Kilduff...
Well, to be more accurate, it doesn't count unless it had a 1989 copyright date at the end (a la "Don't Tell Her It's Me", "Lisa", "Loose Cannons", "Impluse", "Blue Steel", "Downtown" and "Tremors"). I haven't seen the movie all the way through, so I could be wrong and this might be an 80s movie by copyright date. Deep down, though, I feel it isn't.

I dug this up because i'm thinking of having a "Summer Movie Marathon" all week........It's gonna be the last week of hot sunshine here........so why not finish the night off with some 80's summer flicks.......any other reco's for me???
Impact is supposed to have this movie from 1985 Hot Chili.......looks cheesy and summer filled to me?
Yes!!!! One Crazy Summer is on my list mauahahaha !!
Posted by Johnny Roarke is reckless (Member # 9826) on :
Muffy, how about the Lemon Popsicle movies ?
and if you like Hot Chili, also look for Screwball Hotel (1988) and Hot Resort (1985).
I've seen Hot Resort...but not sure what The Lemon Popsicle movies are?.....totally gonna do some research now....thanks! Posted by aTomiK (Member # 6575) on :
I have Hot Chili VHS tape. Plenty of nudity but not a classic by any means.
I also own two Lemon Popsicles and Screwball Hotel but haven´t had time to watch them yet.
Posted by Bernie_Lomax (Member # 8571) on :
Weekend at Bernies, Duh.
Posted by Valley (Member # 1322) on :
Muffy have you watched "Back To the Beach" that Devo mentioned above yet this week?
Oh and I know you love Nerds .. as in "Revenge of the Nerds" .. so why not go with "Revenge of the Nerds II: Nerds In Paradise"?

Muffy, I would recommend these '80s summer flicks for your end-of-the-summer marathon, some of which have already been suggested but are good ones:
Summer Rental The Great Outdoors Weekend at Bernie's One Crazy Summer Humanoids from the Deep (If you're looking for a good summer-set horror movie, this one is your best bet) Hardbodies The Raft segment from Creepshow 2
Posted by Muffy Tepperman (Member # 1551) on :
I started Hot Chilli a couple nights ago.....it's what Atomik said....plenty of nudity and not a classic by any means haha
Thanks Zach! i've actually watched Great Outdoors so far, One Crazy Summer, where the Boys are 84
lol @ The Raft segment.........it makes Creepshow 2 a great movie!
i'm going to go straight from summer movies to scary fall movies Posted by Ronnie (Member # 465) on :

Seeing as how we have already jumped to over 100 degrees here in Phoenix, I am totally in the mood for some summer movies.
I just added "Humanoids From The Deep" (1980) to my instant queue on netflix. Looking forward to watching it.
