I was in this movie and I can hardly watch it. I was living in Oregon at the time and was working at the Newport Hilton, when the movie company came to town to film this movie. My brother and I had a blast with the cast and crew, and they just had to get us in the movie...., So, we were put in the scene with John Lariquet(sp?)
Where Richard Kiel comes out of the water and scares us all off the little tour boat. We were the two young men that had to look stoned right before we fell into that cold water....,

Thankfully, my scene is early in the movie, so I don't have to watch it all to see my scene. And actually, I am in the same scene twice. I am also on the bridge looking down at myself as I jump overboard into the water. Oh the magic of film....,

I was 20 years old at the time, and my brother is 17. The movie company adopted us, since many of them were surfers, and we were some of the very few Orgonians that surfed at that time. They were so nice to us and paid us well, and fed us well. It was one of the funnest experiences in my life, and I still am thankful to all the nice people involved in making this movie.

It never hit the theaters in my area, and took a couple years to show up on HBO, so I didn't know it had been released until my friends started calling me and telling me they just saw me on HBO. Very cool....,Luckily, they did closeups of my brother and I to make sure our friends would recognize us. As I said they were really nice...,

This movie is definitely a cult classic. My chunky friend and I haven't seen the movie in almost 20 years and we still call each other frequently, repeating many of the lines...Fritz, your shoe is untied...Fritz, your zipper is down...Fritz, YOUR PANTS ARE DOWN! Fritz, pick up you pants! Are these guys serious? Of course we're serious, why do you think we're dressed like this...thhhhhhhhhh! Some say we're crazy, others say stupid, but when you can laugh at stuff you did when you were a kid it can always change a bad day! Luv ya slim! All in all a very funny movie, definitely worth a look. Chunky, your DVD copy is on the way!

I, like many others, watched this as a child. And my brothers and I watched it ALL THE TIME on VHS. I was so THRILLED when I found it on DVD. It's still as funny and silly as I remember!!!

Would I recommend watching this movie? Of course I would!!!

I don't understand the other reviews. This movie is not funny. The acting is atrocious and the story cliched. The quality of this Image DVD is also bad. The colors are dull and the sound is so soft I had to max out my volume.

I couldn't watch this. It's not even suitable for family viewing. There are some very crude(not funny or creative) moments. The only explanation for the good reviews is if the Hudson brothers are reviewing incognito.

Oh Man! I've been waiting for so long for this movie to show up on DVD. I'm a self-professed lover of "stupid movies"- and this one has to top the list. It is over-the-edge bizarre and totally silly, but you just can't help but laugh. I would think this movie scores high among the 12-15 age range scoping out all of the dirty subtext. And,this movie captures such an excellent atmosphere- I think it's visually perfect - including the sets (lighthouse on a cliff- creepy small town) - and the makeup for the "what difference" zombies. Top notch-
