Terrible movie, but there's a light in the darkness... READ ON!!!

What can I say? There are sometimes movies that are so dreadfully awful, that when they have finished you feel not only a deep shame for the person you've now become, but cause you to lose faith in humanity as a whole.

That said, there is in "Wave Babes" one performer who delivers such a powerful interpretation of the director's vision, that it causes almost instant swelling of tears to your eyes.

"Obnoxious Beach Boy #1", played by Dustin Petok, is an emotional vortex of Nth dimension intensity rivaling such greats as Olivier, Branagh, Burton, and O'Toole. Petok's performance can arguably be considered a tribute to the long-lost skill of proper theatre acting; a virtual olympic workshop of poise and elocution. His delivery both fine and acute, Dustin Petok practically owns each and every shot, as if the lense and film were not only just weapons contained within his own unique arsenal, but also the steps of a tango to which only he knows the moves.

Never again let it be said that a B-movie must necessarily lack both substance and delivery... For even the darkest of stages can have a bright focused spotlight of hope... and that hope now has a name: Petok.
