Psycho Beach Party
Newly Added
•
1h 36m
Directed by Robert Lee King • 2000 • United States, Australia
Starring Lauren Ambrose, Thomas Gibson, Nicholas Brendon
Adapted from the play by camp icon Charles Busch, this wickedly satirical genre mash-up combines the GIDGET-style beach movie of the ’60s with the ’80s teen slasher for a wildly outrageous, surf-tastic schlockfest bursting with kinky innuendo. Chicklet (Lauren Ambrose), a wannabe surf girl with a split personality, becomes the primary suspect after a string of humorously gruesome murders terrifies the teen set. When the clues take her to the beach, the fun and suspense begin as she crosses paths with a burnt-out surf guru (Thomas Gibson), a dreamy surf boy (Nicholas Brendon), and a stylish homicide detective (played by a glam Busch in drag).
