Pretty but straitlaced Sarah goes to her uncle's swank house on the beach hoping to relax for a few weeks. Sarah's plans go askew, however, when her hellraising friends Ginger and Ducky (!) show up and invite everyone they can find for an extended party. The uncle (Adam Roarke) shows up, however, and the rowdy girls have to resort to any measures necessary to get on his good side. Add in a subplot of marijuana smuggling and a miserably unfunny Captain Queeg wannabe on a Coast Guard cutter, and you have The Beach Girls. The Pom Pom Girlsis marginally more entertaining, following the escapades of high school cheerleaders and their friends as they go after one last fling before graduation. Robert Carradine adds his talents to The Pom Pom Girls, along with a number of other more obscure actors who all look a bit long in the tooth to be high school seniors. Rhino Video put out this double feature, but the big question is…why? This DVD seems like an utter waste of digital information. For those old enough to remember the heyday of the drive-in, this is a reminder that for every trash classic from Herschell Gordon Lewis or Roger Corman, there were 10 examples of brain-rotting junk like The Beach Girlsand The Pom Pom Girls. Those hard up for a little camp value or a glimpse of nudity might enjoy these, but all in all this double feature is guaranteed to take your IQ and grind it into the dirt. --Jerry Renshaw

Customer Reviews

The Beach Girls - a classic of the genre
If you collect jiggling ... movies from the seventies and early eighties like me, The Beach Girls definitely needs to be in your collection. This movie harkens back to a more innocent time when all you needed was a rich uncle's beach house, a few college age bimbos, and eight garbage bags of weed washed up on shore to have a rockin' good time. Where this movie really delivers is in the area of jiggling naked .... I don't think the movie goes more than five minutes without delivering real, non-surgically altered mammaries. The Pom Pom girls is pretty forgettable, except for seeing Robert Carradine in an early role.

I love it!
What could be better than The Beach Girls on DVD? This is the softcore flick shown to death on Cinemax in the 80's in all of its glory. Funny storyline that is a pleasure to watch after all these years. Funny, good lines, good characters, and, of course, there is plenty of flesh from the ladies. For what it is, this is a great movie.

The DVD is clear, the sound great. The chapter selections are a little lousy and there are no extras. As for Pom-Pom Girls, I haven't watched it yet.

No Plot, Bad Acting, Bad Direction. It's a HIT!
I got this on DVD simply because it was made the year I graduated high school (1976) and I was right, it's full of flashbacks of the pathetic 70's, which I can now look back on and laugh. My daughter is stealing the cheers from this movie to use on her high school squad now! Bad hair, wild clothes, even some nudity (girls but no boys). A horrid generic soundtrack really brings out the best in mood setting. And why does every high school kids type movie, no matter what year or era it's made or set in have to include a 1955 Chevy? Classic 70's B movie camp. Buy it and make your teenage kids sit thru it. Then they'll understand you a lot better!
