A Beach Party Essay: The Perils of Eric von Zipper

It's that time of year again, to discuss the deeper artistic merits of the lauded Beach Party series, and once again chart the = journey of one Eric von Zipper, Rat Pack Esq.

This time round, the burgeoning musical star Sugar Kane has been = publicity stunts, and been = by a bunch'a no good stinkin' beach bums!


And even ends up facing off against a true/real kidnapper, who ties up the poor helpless Sugar onto a log of wood headed for a buzzsaw   And yet despite this brave struggle...von Zipper is knocked out almost immediately and Frankie Avalon saves the day. Why? Well because he loves silent films of course, and whoever saw Buster Keaton get the girl? Like 3 times outta 10! (this figure may be erroneous).
