WillSushyMedia This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.

Lachlan Coulson This is a gorgeous movie made by a gorgeous spirit.

Beulah Bram A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.

Madilyn Not sure how, but this is easily one of the best movies all summer. Multiple levels of funny, never takes itself seriously, super colorful, and creative.

capone666 Psycho Beach PartyOne telltale sign that you have had sex on the beach is that human/jellyfish hybrid you just gave birth to.Luckily, the amorous adolescent in this comedy is avoiding interspecies breeding.Prudish Florence (Lauren Ambrose) wants to learn how to surf from The Great Kanaka (Thomas Gibson) and his crew (Amy Adams, Nicholas Brendon).While making great strides on the waves, Florence - now Chicklet - still struggles with the unpredictable blackouts that turn her into a sex-crazed psychopath.Meanwhile, a police detective (Charles Busch) has come to the seaside to investigate a recent rash of murders that seem to implicate everyone Chicklet knows.Based on the off-Broadway production, this subversive sixties surf movie spoof has ample seventy slasher film tendencies to please both fans of deliberate camp and low-budget horror.By the way, if you're going surfing after committing a murder make sure to wash the blood off beforehand.Yellow Lightvidiotreviews.blogspot.ca

GL84 After joining up with a gang of surfers and their lifestyle, a woman fears that the serial killer running rampant through the group may be herself when she falls victim to a split personality and tries to stop it from continuing before all of her friends are killed.This was a pretty decent mixture of 60s Beach movie and slasher, though the fact that the stalking scenes are non-existent and never developed while the beach-party aspect of the movie is allotted full time to develop and go through it's paces clearly shows the slasher angle is just that, an angle used to give it a bit of individuality and distance itself from the pack. Still, it's not unwatchable, as the psychosis is pretty clever and generally pretty funny, the gay subplots are given enough room to be heard without overwhelming everything and the final revelation of the killer is pretty enjoyable. Still, had it done more with it's slasher setting, it could've had something really enjoyable instead of being just decent.Rated R: Graphic Language, Violence and Nudity.

lewiskendell "There is so much ugliness in the world. Can't there be anyone who is utterly perfect?"What an odd combination of a slasher, dance numbers, surfing, cross-dressing, split-personalities, a murder mystery, and campy humor. I only chose to see Psycho Beach Party because of the presence of a young Amy Adams, who I will watch absolutely any movie for. Without her, I wouldn't have had much of a reason to finish this. I love campy, cult movies, but Psycho Beach Party didn't particularly amuse me. It wasn't bad, but this movie is really only worth seeing if you're a fan of the cast (which includes Lauren Ambrose, Thomas Gibson, and Kathleen Robertson), and for the cheesy, awesome ending. Watch the trailer, it should give you an excellent idea of whether this is for you.

Meron_Ron You have to love camp to like this flick; as Lauren Ambrose's Chicklet learns about boys and girls, 60's style (with some 90's surprises thrown in.)As far as I know, Annette and Moondoggie never met any multiple-personality slashers (Too bad) but Busch's film more than makes up for that lack. Introducing cross-dressing cops, constipated surfers searching for their sexual identity and a possible serial Mom, "Psycho Beach" bends and blends teenage angst and softcore slasher porn.Best scenes: Starcat explaining his relation with MarlaDene to Chicklet; Starcat accidentally removing MarlaDene's bikini bottom while retrieving his frat pin...just because they are so totally out of the genre.6 out of 10.
