    These guys really know how to hack. Two geniuses use several kilobytes of raw computing power to generate an illegal beach party full of strong, available women and powerful rock 'music'. There is some nudity, but that's why they call it Silicon Valley - right guys?

    There is a plot about treasure, I think, and a land grab? The mayor is in it. The story quickly becomes insignificant as we are enchanted by the state-of-the-art computer graphics which infect this film like ransomware. Of course, special effects have come a long way since 1987 but this was considered the 'Cats' of its day.

    Despite the director being in a coma throughout the whole production, the acting still happened and the cameras were switched on. There are people on screen and they have lines of dialogue. Sun, sea, sand, surf and sand. 0b1100001 minutes long.

    Real hack-a-heart

    The best movie directed by a man in coma, since the release of Star Wars!

    What happened in Texas should have stayed in Texas

    My review was written in June 1988 after watching the movie on Vestron video cassette.

    The second Texas-mae beach movie to come out recently (after "Thinkin' Big"), "Computer Beach Party" lives up to its title as an incoherent mishmash sunk by amateurish technique.

    Familiar "Save Our Beach" premise has bespectacled ned Andy (Hank Amigo) and his wind sail buggy-racing pal Dennis (Andre Chimene) fighting a holding action to keep their uncluttered beach in the Galveston area from being covered with lifeguard towers and taken over by the mayor, who thinks sunken pirate treasure is in the vicinity. Coincidentally, Andy is romancing the mayor's beautiful daughter Allison (Stacey Nemour), Padded with lengthy song performances, 185 production is haphazardly constructed with some atrocious post-synching. The cast of supposed high schoolers looks on average at least 10 years too old to qualify, and the hero's computer prowess is used pointlessly to set up guest lists for two beach parties is a weak justification for pic's title.

    Comedy content is weak, leaving little more than the bodacious bod of Nemour as reason to sit through this effort.

    Lots of beach party, one computer, not much else.

    Computer Beach Party confused me in the way that I didn't know who the movie was for. It was obviously one of those "80's sex teen comedy" movies, and yet I really didn't understand what Gary Troy was thinking when he made it. Even the painful "Don't Go In The Woods" had better voice-over dubs, head room, character development, use of footage, and wasn't just 30 minutes of a movie with 47 minutes of filler. Granted, the computer and beach parties were present, but if I were anyone in the band "Panther", and had to supply the twenty-odd songs in the sound track, I'd be awfully ashamed. That is, if I weren't already ashamed of being in a hair band with the name "Panther".

    Unless you hate your life, skip it

    One of my biggest pet peeves with movie lovers is when someone talks about a bad movie and says "that's got to be the worst movie ever made" because they have no fu--ing clue what they are talking about. I'm not saying Computer Beach Party is the worst movie ever made but I'm betting it makes the top 100. This movie will suck out your soul and s--t on it. This movie is so bad that from now on I am going to refer to it as Computer Beach S--tmovie. Do not watch this movie, in fact just stop reading this review. Please! Masochist huh? Well OK, but don't say I didn't warn you.

    When Andy and Dennis find a gold coin they stumble upon a hunt for a buried treasure. Unfortunately the people hunting are planning on buying the now public beach and kicking everyone off. Andy and Dennis must rely on there computer beach skills to win a para sailing type race to stop the greedy locals from taking over! The first thing you'll notice when watching Computer Beach S--tmovie is every person is over dubbed and dubbed HORRIBLY. None of the voices match the people and at times it isn't even the same actor dubbing. Next you'll notice the killer of this "film": pacing. Every scene seems to have this strange pause, or moment where all the actors just kinda look at each other. I'm assuming this is because no one actually wrote a script and the actors are all making s--t up on the spot. Most of the things that happen in the film aren't funny and are totally meaningless. This film is so bad three naked girls didn't even help.

    And in the end there is no buried treasure in Computer Beach Sh--movie, in fact their beach computers don't even end up helping anyone and one of the biggest dramatic scenes in the film isn't even shown (a message to the audience says it's "too violent"). It feels like all the people making the movie didn't speak English and I wouldn't be surprised if this was the case. I hope these people lost a lot of f--king money making this movie. I hope it made them homeless, no f--k that I hope someone died trying to make this sh--ty movie. Seriously. It's garbage. And next time someone tries to tell you Troll 2 is the worst movie ever made shove over your sh--ty copy of Computer Beach S--tmovie and tell them to watch and learn.
