| | Beach Party |
 | | Many have questioned MGM's inclusion of the American International Pictures (AIP) beach movies in their Midnite Movies series, but I believe that these films hold an important place in drive-in movie history
and anyone who says otherwise is itchin' for a fight. |
 | | Beach Party (written by Lou Rusoff and directed by William Asher) is the first of seven AIP beach films, followed by MUSCLE BEACH PARTY, BIKINI BEACH, PAJAMA PARTY, BEACH BLANKET BINGO, HOW TO STUFF A WILD BIKINI, and THE GHOST IN THE INVISIBLE BIKINI. |
 | | The plot of BEACH PARTY sets the tone for the rest of the series where the gang, a clean cut bunch of surf and rock 'n roll loving teenagers led by Frankie Avalon and Annette Funicello, hangs out at the beach unsupervised by parents. |
