Psycho Beach Party

[Plum Pea Dahl {★}]

I discovered this gem one late sleepless night whilst channel-surfing. It's the story of a teenage girl named Chicklet (nee Florence) with split personalities (unbeknownst to her) who would rather surf than chase boys. Unfortunately, whenever she goes into a rage, somebody ends up dead! But is she the real culprit? Or could it be the loner surfer who teaches Chicklet how to surf? Or the Swedish foreign exchange student? Or the gossipy chick in the wheelchair? Or even...Chicklet's own mom

The movie was adapted from the play by Charles Busch, who played Chicklet in the original stage production and the chief of police in the movie. He's on the right in picture 2.

It's totally campy fun with cute costumes and catchy 60's beach lingo. I highly recommend you rent this movie today! Or stay up all night and hope that it comes on.

You should. It's so bad, it's good!
