Matcollis This Movie Can Only Be Described With One Word.

CrawlerChunky In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

Livestonth I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible

Stephanie There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

lazarillo If you ever have trouble locating any of these Reagan-era teen comedies, it's probably because they're on permanent reserve for regular showings in the Ninth Circle of Hell! Nevertheless, this one is somewhat unusual in that, while it certainly is an exploitation flick rather than any kind of serious film, it doesn't really fall into the typical categories like teen slasher movies, teen sex comedies, etc. It actually starts out in an interesting way with private plane full of wealthy prep school kids crashing onto a deserted island on their way to an after prom party. It looks for awhile like it's going to be an adolescent version of "Lord of the Flies" with sex and girls (an excellent idea that oddly enough has never been done--although the Japanese film "Battle Royale" came close). Primitive savagery rears its head briefly and things threaten to spin wildly out of control during a primitive, ritualistic game of "strip spin-the-bottle". But then a bunch of idiot drug smugglers show up(played by be-stubbled, pony-tailed actors who look like they got ejected from a casting call for "Miami Vice" for being too unconvincing). At which point the movie turns into a really stupid sub-sub "Rambo" 80's action movie (Oh, the humanity!) In keeping with its general schizoid nature, the female cast of this movie is excellent, including Betsy Russell (pant!), Claudia Udy (drool!), and a young Sherilyn Fenn (slobber!). Russell and Udy have memorable nude scenes, and Fenn easily wins her own private wet t-shirt contest during an early swimming-in-the-lagoon scene. The male cast, however, is insufferable. The narrator (who talks right to camera)is a fat, bespectacled, and above all, incredibly annoying loser. He's kind of like "Piggy" in "Lord of the Flies" except that unfortunately no one bashes his head in with a rock. He even gets laid by a very decent-looking girl before it's all over (if you've ever seen any of the movies like this, you know that's NOT a spoiler). Then there's a pretty-boy "rebel" who's named "Cowboy" even though he doesn't look like he'd know one end of a horse from the other (he does get to know one end of both Betsy Russell and Claudia Udy from the other though). Perhaps, worst of all though, is the prom king character, played by none other than Martin "Endless Love" Hewitt (Aiiiiggggggggggggh!!!!) I don't if all this adds up to a recommendation or not, but as far as these "nausea-stalgic" Reagan-era teen movies go, you could a lot worse I guess.

Sack-3 This flick is hilarious to watch today. The bad outfits, the bad hair, the gratuitous nudity! It's everything a teen wanted. Sure the plot is not in Oscar contention, but this is entertaining bad TV and eye candy. There is also one (at least!) editing screw up of note: when you get your one and only overhead shot of the entire deserted island, the picture is taken from a mountain on a nearby island (or more likely the mainland). You can see branches at the bottom of the screen! Oops.

Dr Indy This movie stars Martin Hewitt (Endless Love) and Betsy Russell(Private School)as boyfriend and girlfriend who with a group of friends are traveling to Hewitt's father's island in the Pacific Northwest for a party after their high school graduation.The movie is slow and has a rather weak plot. Their plane crashes and leaves the kids stranded on an island. They swim, play "Games" and do what every teenager would do if they were stranded on an island with beautiful women. Then they discover that a group of smugglers are trying to kill them so they must fight them off and try to get off the island. A corny movie but if you like beautiful women and great scenery, then this movie is for you.
