Surf Nazis Must Die
Dir: Peter George
1987
*
Peter George's 1987 cult classic Surf Nazis Must Die comes under the very specific sub-genre of Beachploitation (not to be confused with the Beach Party sub-genre). It was certainly a new one by me before watching the film/writing this review and I can't think of any other film that may fit the category. With a title like Surf Nazis Must Die you have got to deliver the goods but I'm afraid Surf Nazis Must Die really doesn't. Apart from the fantastic character of 'Leroy's Mama', Surf Nazis Must Die doesn't have anything going for it. Nothing. They're not even proper Nazis. Even for a trashy Troma film this is quite bad and I'm not sure it deserves its cult status or its cult following. That said, a remake (with a bigger budget and better writing) should definitely happen.
