Bikini Hotel

There's not much to say about this movie....really, there isn't. J.J. North plays a young woman who inherits an old, broken down hotel from her father. She's at a loss for ideas on how to keep the place out of the hands of the greedy developers across the way and make some money. Sound familiar? Yep, it's STSWB all over again. Out come the bikini-clad babes to work the desk and clean the rooms, and you've got an instant growing base of clients. Julie Strain has a supporting role here; every time I watch this movie I wonder what she was thinking when she signed on for it. She went from action-adventure Andy Sidaris movies to this?? Wow, what a step down!

Oh, one more thing.....don't miss the opening credits. The female cop is played by none other than famous exotic dancer Fantasia. She only appears at the very beginning and again at the very end, so don't miss her....but then again, how can you miss her? She gets one scene to shine, so she makes the most of it...she gives some lucky stiff a lap dance, bouncing and wiggling her F-cup breasts all around, then finally putting his head between them!

Other than that, it's a poor movie. See the opening credits, then go back to whatever you were doing beforehand.

Gosh, what else is there to say? I bought it on DVD in a clearance bin for $2. It's nice to have a terrible skin flick like this for "bad cheesey-but-naked" movie night. This thing is totally sans plot development. It's hard to imagine dialog that's worse. The out-takes are fun, tho. The DVD is better than the video, I'd guess. :) The bonus materials are funny. I'm sure the cast had a good time making this, because they seemed like they were having fun. Heck, I'd be having fun hanging out with Julie Strain if she was naked. :)

Quite amateurish in a way but good clean T&A fun of the Bikini Car Wash Company variety but far more vivid. Girls of the Playboy/Penthouse variety. It has Stella Stevens in it (not bared) of all people.

The guy who made it seem to have fun doing so and their good humor shows itself.

It has a fun "Behind the Scenes item in the menu which is quite unusual for a film in this class, and it's very good too. Their "production facility" is worth the price of the film.

As far as B-Movies go, anything with Julie Strain in it deserves a look. Making or breaking whether or not you will stay with this movie are the two characters at the beginning. The camaraderie they share is reminiscent of college dorm life in the 90s, so whether you like that or not goes a long way. (But the haircut of the "Remote" character really bothers me).

After watching this movie, I feel affirmations of what a "good" B-movie is: not needing much brain activity, with little anecdotes of culture and creativity along the way. Seeing the Asian men find ways to get the "bikini maids" to clean their rooms and bend over in provocative ways will impress many men, but clearly demoralizes women. But that is clearly par for B-movies, what the director is going for. Stupid actors in the form of Tim Lovestedt give this movie the rating it gets (the other guy is pretty good actually). His dimwitted nature is only outdone by him poking his head into things to appear even more dimwitted.

Looks like its written by a teenage boy with raging hormones ... none of the male actors are experienced and the females carry the load ... its more stupid than comical ... curiously, the female lead has a degree in hotel management and we all wonder why she didn't apply rather than her bountiful breasts
