Nonureva Really Surprised!

Lucybespro It is a performances centric movie

Stellead Don't listen to the Hype. It's awful

Taha Avalos The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.

Rainey Dawn A family has set out to spend some family time on the beach, just like old times together. The dad is a gentle man, not smart on mechanics but his son knows a little bit about it because this family will need it. As they are driving along on the back-roads there is suddenly two vehicles around them: a guy with a life-sized plastic doll in a convertible and two in a sand-buggy. The thugs end up running the family off the road and the trouble begins.You don't have to wait long for the hippy thugs to show up, only about 2 minutes into the film. This film does not waste time trying to develop the characters of the family members in the beginning, they develop them throughout the course of the film. The thugs are just thugs, not much to develop with them.Really not a good film but it's an okay watch if you are super bored.3/10

merrywater I tend to adore the ABC movies of the week: to me they represent the originality of plots back then. Pictures nowadays seldom come up with something new. Horror pictures always deal with haunted houses and dead kids. Or else they're Japanese rip-offs.This movie can boast of having a two-faced atmosphere: summer vacation leisure mixed with insidious peril.A middle-class family goes on a camping trip, and repeatedly become the victims of an eerie hippie gang's pranks. The pranks keep getting more and more physical until they reach the level of attempted murder.Dennis Weaver was perhaps type-casted as the upright, rather naive family man that believes that if you don't react on bad changes, they'll conveniently disappear clear out of sight. Nevertheless, he was an excellent actor, and this picture offers quite a number of interesting twists. A hilarious scene is when the family hears a cry further down the beach, and Weaver gets the sight of a body in the water. When he's ran out to it, he founds out that it's actually an inflatable sex doll dressed in his daughters underwear!

warrior1967 I first saw this film when I was around 13 years old and I STILL love it today. Yes, it is slow in some spots but its a great film nonetheless. I am a FIRM believer that Wes Craven was inspired by this film when he wrote The Hills Have Eyes, even though he may not admit it.

patlange-4 I can't believe I waste my time watching this garbage! I did because Leonard Maltin gave it an "AA" rating, and for TV movies this is usually a reliable indicator of some quality entertainment.The acting was OK, but whoever wrote it should be forever denied access to any medium of communication. The plot is ludicrous, the motivations of the "bad guys" totally absent, and the various family interactions silly and shallow. For example, Dad preaches that violent reaction to aggression is BAD, but he turns out to be an "admirable" person NOT because of his "ignore the idiots" philosophy, but because he's pretty good with his fists...The ONLY message I was able to glean from this pap was that the nuclear family is Good and alternate living arrangements are Bad. Oh, and Bad people happen to Good people.
