★★★★★ · Read Morgan as the sheriff · Jansinger575 · 2013-01-01

I recently met Read, and he is a great person. He and my mother were friends before he went to Hollywood. This movie was a hoot! Fun to watch someone you have met...

★★★★ · go go a go go! · Futuristfood · 2012-04-03

forget that it's an awful script. the shots of the coast and the great surf tune by Frank S Jr. is all I needed.. and that stepmom.. what a vixen!

★★★★ · Great music! · bronx72 · 2018-10-31

Really enjoyed it. Watusi girls, music by Frank Sinatra Jr., very mod ‘60s fashions and interiors, great surfing footage; a real time capsule. Very sincere.

★ · Monster? What Monster? · Osiris14 · 2023-03-12

The acting in this was so bad I was rooting for the Monster. Lots of snappy dialogue and the car chase were probably the best parts
