The Beach Girls (1982) is one of those rare movies that you can watch any time and instantly feel better. It's pure insanity in the best way possible. Chris and Mike delve into the film itself as well as some surprising revelations about the writer of this movie and where some of the cast ended up.

Tara B True is a real special kind of lady, a real SUPER kind of lady. She has it all: a career, a new man in every city, a black belt in Karate and all the test results have all been negative so far. Yes, Tara really is the architype of the modern woman - according to the men at Crown International Pictures; that's right, heavy weighs the crown my friends.

Savage Streets (1984) is an amazing movie that takes place in a parallel universe where teenage girls in Los Angeles love to shop for bear traps and crowsbows. This is definitely one of the best grindhouse movies ever produced and is a great introduction into the post-exorcist career of Linda Blair.
CLICK HERE TO LISTEN TO EPISODE 03 - THE CHEERLEADERS (1973)
If there is one thing that The Cheerleaders (1973) has taught me it’s that cheerleaders are a vermin on society, they suck the lifeforce from men and they spread communicable diseases like a rabid animal; they must be stopped.
CLICK HERE TO LISTEN TO EPISODE 02 - MALIBU HIGH (1979)
I have an idea. Let’s make a movie about a high school girl who gets dumped by her boyfriend and is failing out of school. Unsure how to handle these failures, she decides to become a hooker. This way she can make money as well as seduce her teachers for better grades - not to mention make that ex-boyfriend really jealous. Eventually, for no reason, she will develop a blood lust and decide to become a trained assassin. Also, let’s make her a real bitch with no redeeming qualities and nothing the audience can sympathize with.

We start our journey down the decrepit halls of the Grindbin with a staple of the Crown International library. As you will learn around these parts, Crown is the mark of quality when it comes to exploitation films.
