Rating: - BEACH PARTY/BIKINI BEACH
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

A somewhat humorous movie, specially with gangster ... Read More

40 years late it was a fantastic experience te watch these films. Da Cat stands out of the other on Beach Party.Along with Gidget these films were decisive for the updating of the Azorean surf culture. Bikini Beach supplied us information on skateboarding and wake (locally named JET) surfing. They are part of the beach culture of the 60s.
