Trivia
First feature film to introduce the new Ford Mustang. Even though Goldfinger (1964) is commonly credited with this distinction, that movie wasn't released until January, 1965. In this movie, Annette Funicello's character, Connie, is seen driving the Mustang in several scenes. Note: This item is true only regarding US audiences. The Mustang did show up first in Goldfinger, which premiered in England and elsewhere in Europe on September 1964, two months before this movie was seen anywhere.

Goofs
As Connie and Go Go are driving to the dress shop, Connie, as seen in the close-ups as viewed through the car's front windshield, often does not turn the steering wheel to match the twists and turns of the background seen of the road.

Quotes
Chief Rotten Eagle: What are we lookin' for?
J. Sinister Hulk: Anything suspicious!
Chief Rotten Eagle: Only thing suspicious is us!

Real history

I was shocked (SHOCKED!) that this movie rated only a three. I mean WTF? I consider all of the beach party movies as at least 6 or more stars, if for nothing more than sheer historical value. Add to that that these movies are definitely entertaining, then add in some now-nostalgic music and you have a wonderfully amusing bit of film. And does anyone realize that Annette Funicello was the original Disney teen queen? She was Britney Spears, Hilary Duff, and Miley Cyrus' original predecessor. If that's not worth a few stars, what is?

Perhaps I am understandably biased, but I don't think I am being too unfair about this. This particular romp finds Tommy Kirk as a Martian scout sent to prepare the way for a Martian invasion. Annette is his reluctant love interest (she thinks he's nuts), and all the other usual clowns are here as well. If you like beach movies, you'll enjoy this one as well. If 60's nostalgia cinema doesn't float your surfboard, then you should stay away. Great flick!
