Pretty terrible but harmless
25 May 2018
Fluff about a bunch of college kids spending Easter Week vacation in Palm Springs. There's Jim Munroe (Troy Donahue) romancing a local girl (Stefanie Powers) whose overprotective father happens to be the chief of police. Then there's innocent Gail (Connie Stevens) falling for psycho Eric (Robert Conrad) but is watched over by sweet Stretch (Ty Hardin). The odious comic relief of the kids named Biff (Jerry Van Dyke) falls for nerdy Amanda (Zeme North), AND the coach of the boys basketball team (Jack Weston) falls for Rosalind Russell sound alike Naomi (Carole Cook).

The comedy is stupid, the complications predictable and there's zero believability here but I liked it! This falls squarely in the so-bad-it's-good category. The color is strong, the cast is certainly attractive and there's good acting by Stevens and Powers. Only real debit-=Robert Conrad. His character is clearly a psycho and Stevens keeps going out with him! I know she's naïve but THAT naïve? Still this is harmless fluff and terrible but fun.
