5 out of 5 stars Midnite Movies boxed up.......2007-05-26

These are the 4 Midnite Movie Double Features of AIP Beach Party films that were released a few years back. I enjoy being able to sit back and watch the surf nonsense. Eric Von Zipper is king. Shame they don't run these as afternoon flicks in the summer on WLVI in Boston. Also a shame they didn't create a double feature of Pajama Party and Dr. Goldfoot and the Bikini Machine.

The only question is if MGM ever fixed How to Stuff a Wild Bikini. The orignal release claimed it was an anamophic version of the Scope transfer, but it turned out to be the pan and scan.

5 out of 5 stars Annette!!!.......2007-04-26

What can I say. I had a big crush on Annette growing up. I will definitely want this collection. Annette in a bikini!! Enough said.

5 out of 5 stars Beach Movie.......2007-05-07

I loved being able to take a blast to the past, it would be great to have such fun. The movies were great and fun to watch. I can't wait to order more movies like this.

5 out of 5 stars My copy is WIDESCREEN.......2007-04-02

I received my DVD the other day and watched both movies and enjoyed them very much. A few of the reviews here state "Wild Bikini" is full screen. My copy is WIDESCREEN as stated on the package. I don't know if they changed the format or what but BOTH of my movies are in widescreen as is shown on the dvd case.

5 out of 5 stars Beach Blanket Bingo/ How to stuff a wild Bikini.......2007-03-16

Came in alittle after the rest of the order but in a decent time period. The movie was great. Fun to watch and very upbeat. Frankie Avalon is awesome.

5 out of 5 stars Fun movies, incorrect labeling!.......2006-10-03

BEACH BLANKET BINGO is on one side of this DVD in Widescreen 2:35. HOW TO STUFF A WILD BIKINI is on the other side, but is in Pan and Scan, not the 2:35 listed on the packaging. However, fear not! There is a single disc release of HOW TO STUFF A WILD BIKINI which has Widescreen on one side, Pan and Scan on the other, and even though it's out of print, it shows up here at Amazon quite frequently. There is also a single disc edition of BEACH BLANKET BINGO, with P&S on one side and Widescreen on the other.

4 out of 5 stars How to Stuff a Wild Bikini not w/s.......2006-09-01

FYI: On the cover of this dvd it states widescreen, only Beach Blanket Bingo is wide, presented in 2.35:1 and Wild Bikini should be the same, but it is the pan scan edition on this Midnight Movies double feature dvd.
I have the single edition of Wild Bikini and it has the choice of pan or wide.

5 out of 5 stars It's A Big Beach Blanket Bingo And Your Invited To Watch.......2005-08-09

Frankie Avalona nd Annette Funicello oare back again, in Beach Blanket Bingo. With a huge cast of comedy legends including Don Rickles and Buster Keaton, this surfin' sandfest is a deffinate winner. Frankie (Avalon) and Dee Dee (Funicello) are riding high on romance once again, until the singing sensation Sugar Kane (Linda Heavens) falls from the sky into Frankies arms! Not to be outdone by her fello flying friends, Dee Dee signs up for skydiving lessions with the guys. But when the beautifl instructor (Deborah Walley) makes Frankie her after and before school sweetheart, he must prove his devotion to Dee Dee with a death-defying free fall, and a summer of love that she will never forget. This is a fantastic beach movie that also stars Harvey Lembeck, John Ashley, Jody McCrea, Donna Loren, Marta Kristen, Linda Evans, Don RIckles, Paul Lynde, Buster Keaton, Earl Wilson, and Bobbie Shaw. So have some fun tonight, and watch Beach Blanket Bingo.

4 out of 5 stars I'd change it-a little.......2005-06-01

This is my favorite of the beach movie serious. My little boy and I have a blast watching the movies and singing. You definitely don't need to be an early baby boomer to enjoy these movies. My disappointment is that the song "I'll Never Change Him" is missing. It is the underlying theme music throughout the entire movie, but we never get to hear Annette sing it. I originally taped the movie off of AMC a few years back, and I was so disappointed when this song was missing from the DVD. From the other posts, I understand that this song was cut from the theatrical release, but if AMC can show it, why can't it be on the DVD? Worth the video quality, even with the missing song...

4 out of 5 stars Missing Dialog.......2005-02-04

It's nice having this movie on DVD, but very disappointing that they botched up the dialog track in one spot. At about 107:46 3 of the characters lips move but there is no voice:

Earl Wilson: I thought this place only allowed humans.

Lorelei: who are they?

Bone head: they're the Peace Corps rejects.

I had to go back to my laser disc copy to get the missing dialog. There are subtitles on the DVD but only in Spanish & French.

5 out of 5 stars Frankie Avalon's Best Movie.......2004-05-01

A Good movie and the Best scenes are Frankie Avalon singing the theme song and the romantic song "These Are The Good Times" in the movie a song he later sang in a episode of "The Patty Duke Show".

4 out of 5 stars Fun in the Sun - 60's Style.......2003-11-27

It's clear to see why "Beach BLanket Bingo" might've been a hit among the teens of the day. It's zesty, frothy and fun, and keeps a beat going musically. One of the biggest highlights is the beautiful Donna Loren singing "It Only Hurts When I Cry." She was a talent on the line of Dusty Springfield if ever there was one, and why she didn't become bigger (or remain known today) as a singing star is mystifying. Apparently she wasn't well managed and the proper due wasn't given to her recordings, but she certainly had star material and the pipes. It's also fun to see a very young Linda Evans, looking as if the false eyelashes are a little too much for those baby blues, and Marta Krystal (I believe is her name), an actress who starred as "Judy" on "Lost in Space," playing a mermaid.

The thing that drags the whole thing down from sheer stupidity in my opinion is Harvey Lembeck as "Eric Von Zipper," doing a Brando take-off with annoyingly dumb and adolescent wit. Whenever he and his "rat pack" are on the screen, I fast forward, although evidently he was somewhat of a hit because this character appeared in several "beach" films. I always enjoyed the way that slapstick 60's flicks would feature older stars like, in this case, Buster Keaton, giving this older legends their due and a chance to appear among the popular young stars. The guest star appearances are fun.

As for Annette and Frankie, that crooning Italian duo -- Frankie Avalon was one of those baby-faced, handsome, smooth-voiced singers that came out of Philadelphia, so I'm sure he was a heart throb at the time, and he was cute with Annette. Their on-screen relationship was sweet and light. Annette Funicello was really a gorgeous girl and such a likeable personality on film. Her popularity was well-deserved, because along with being a knockout and having a pleasant if not outstanding voice, she was just a fun and super nice human being. No one who worked with her ever has anything bad to say about her and that's certainly refreshing.

Another fun star of that period was the pretty Deborah Walley. She did her own surfing in the films and she also played in a Gidget movie.

In sum, you can't go wrong with this trip into the beach flicks of the 60's. They're a light way to pass the time and a window into the period. Dig the dancing! (I think people are actually doing the "Frug!")
