Once upon a time this sort of movie was in black and white, loaded down with songs, made with earnest good nature, starred Judy Garland and Mickey Rooney, and featured the line, "I know! Let's put on the show right here!" Yes, I'm talking about movies with plots involving a group of well-motived youngsters banding together in some sort of community effort to save some local facility from the clutches of rapacious developers.
Somewhere along the line colour came along, the songs got dropped, bad jokes and hammy overplaying replaced earnest good nature, Judy Garland and Mickey Rooney got replaced with unknowns and has-beens, and the community effort was no longer an astonishingly professionally produced musical show, instead becoming some sort of activity involving the copious display of silicon enhanced bosoms - "I know! Let's get our boobs out right here!"
Bikini Drive In does exactly what it says on the tin - no surprises here, and it is no better and no worse than you would expect it to be from the title and the name Fred Olen Ray attached to it as director.
