1984 film by Mark Griffiths
POPULARITY
We present our Hardbodies/10/Spring Break Review!When people think of iconic American cinema, they rarely jump straight to beachside hijinks, topless party montages, and clueless middle-aged men trying to reclaim their youth—but perhaps they should. Films like 10 (1979), Hardbodies (1984), and Spring Break (1983) are part of a uniquely 1980s phenomenon: the sex comedy boom, where the combination of sun, skin, and slapstick served as both low-budget goldmines and cultural time capsules. Though 10, starring Dudley Moore and Bo Derek, predates the others and leaned more into adult romantic fantasy than outright teen farce, it planted the seeds for the genre's obsession with unattainable beauty, aging masculinity, and self-aware hedonism. But it was Hardbodies that truly shifted the tone, ushering in the rise of the raunchy, youth-driven beach comedy that would define a generation of VHS rentals and late-night cable rewatches.Hardbodies wasn't the first to feature babes and bros on the sand, but it was the blueprint that codified the formula: old dudes hire a young ladies' man to teach them how to pick up women in Malibu, resulting in a series of increasingly absurd, sexualized, and tone-deaf adventures. It's pure wish fulfillment, soaked in neon tans and synth-heavy soundtracks, but it also became the prototype for films like Spring Break, Private Resort, and Hot Dog… The Movie. Its unapologetic objectification and throwaway plotting weren't accidental—they were the selling point. And for better or worse, Hardbodies helped shift sex comedy from teen coming-of-age (Porky's, Fast Times) to pure, exploitative fantasy. That shift matters, because it marked the moment when these films stopped pretending to be about growing up and started reveling in never growing up at all. The film legacy of Hardbodies isn't about quality or prestige—it's about influence, formula, and the way it captured a certain type of American escapism that filmmakers are still riffing on (or reacting against) today.Disclaimer: The following may contain offensive language, adult humor, and/or content that some viewers may find offensive – The views and opinions expressed by any one speaker does not explicitly or necessarily reflect or represent those of Mark Radulich or W2M Network.Mark Radulich and his wacky podcast on all the things:https://linktr.ee/markkind76alsohttps://www.teepublic.com/user/radulich-in-broadcasting-networkFB Messenger: Mark Radulich LCSWTiktok: @markradulichtwitter: @MarkRadulichInstagram: markkind76RIBN Album Playlist: https://suno.com/playlist/91d704c9-d1ea-45a0-9ffe-5069497bad59

A Malibu dirtbag is recruited by three older men to teach them how to pick up chicks, and a parade of topless women ensues.

Starring Grant Cramer, Courtney Gains, Roberta Collins, Gary Wood. Written by Eric Alter, Steve Greene, and Mark Griffiths. Directed by Mark Griffiths.

Shat The Movies was made for movies like "Hardbodies," a motion picture originally planned for the Playboy Channel but released in theaters because America needed boobs. This 1985 skin flick has all the tropes you'd expect: women in bikinis, beach parties, waterbeds and cheesy lines. But "Hardbodies" surprised us with a few unexpected moments: a no-means-no stance on sexual harassment, a heartwarming makeover scene, an exploration of aging and a woman banged so hard she bursts through the roof of a limousine. In this episode, the Shat Crew explores the charm of bad writing, what qualifies as transactional sex and how marketing ruins everything. Gene marvels at the many kinds of breasts he didn't know existed, and Dick debates with Ash on whether America has gotten fatter or cinema has become more inclusive.

First though, Phillip promotes his friend Tim's new project, The Ones Across The Pond, and his older projects https://www.youtube.com/@indyfilmfanatics6248/videos So check those out. Dave then asks a question for the listeners; What is a good movie for his 6 almost 7 year old son to watch? He had his son watch Wizard of Oz and they tried to show him Jacques Tati's Playtime, but he didn't like the later. They talk a little about their New Beverly experiences. Phillip then reads a little of the surfer style production notes that he received from Erik Clapp. After playing a tv spot for Hardbodies from 1984, Phillip reads the general information about the movie. It's then time for Listener Opinions from Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook. Then the two of them discuss the movie and a little bit about the Frankie Avalon and Annette Funicello beach movies. It's a silly and fun conversation. They then answer the question of whether they notice anything that Quentin may have liked or used in a film. Then it's time to individually rate the movie. It's then time to talk about whether they would buy, rent, or find this movie for free. Phillip gives his Phil's Film Favorite of the Week which is Poor Things. Dave then gives his favorite that he watched this week; The Greatest Night in Pop (2024) (Netflix). He also mentions a great documentary called Who is Harry Nilsson (And Why Is Everybody Talkin' About Him?) (2010). Then it's time to tell the listeners what's coming next week. Rob Papp from The Cinemigos Podcast and the Circle of Jerks Podcast will be back to discuss The Wrecking Crew (1968). So come back then.

Lee is back with the second part of his look at the soundtracks and scores of the sex comedy genre, focusing on the more lurid side of things. This time everything has gotten far bigger and far hornier as he moves into the 1980s. Much like with slasher films, and other assorted cinematic junk food, the sex comedy genre exploded in North America during this decade, getting far raunchier and problematic that it had previously been. Because of the exponentially larger amount of music to put on the playlist, Lee put out a poll to the listeners asking them if they wanted this split into two parts or if they wanted a super-sized summer blow-out. Apparently the listeners are all size queens, so enjoy this 3hr episode! --Pinball Summer & Voyeur's Motel from "Pinball Summer" (1980) --Jay Boivin & Germain Gauthier --I Don't Need To Love You & Try Not To Break My Heart from "The Beach Girls" (1982) --Linda Stevens-Foote --Better Luck Next Time from "The Last American Virgin" (1982) --Oingo Boingo --Shake it Up from "The Last American Virgin" (1982) --The Cars --Teen Angel Eyes from "The Last American Virgin" (1982) --Tommy Tutone --Girls Like Me from "Valley Girl" (1983) --Bonnie Hayes --Marina Men from "Valley Girl" (1983) --The Valley Girls --Pocket Pool from "Valley Girl" (1983) --Killer Pussy --Angst in My Pants from "Valley Girl" (1983) --Sparks --Shake that Thing & This Heart's On Fire from "Screwballs" (1983) --Johnny Dee Fury --Joysticks from "Joysticks" (1983) --Legion --My Tutor from "My Tutor" (1983) --Webster Lewis --Sleepover from "The First Turn-On!"

Bobby, Mann, Eddie and Mike oil up and hit the beach to talk about a recent Patreon Poll winner, Hardbodies (1984). Based off a Penthouse letter (not a joke) Hardbodies is about the laziest movie you could ever imagine... and it's amazing.
WHOOO!!!! It's Spring Break!!! We're taking a brief respite from blood and guts, to enjoy a beach vacation with a movie that has both visuals and sound. It features actors and people both shooting and editing film to create a narrative of sorts. Oh...Just as an afterthought, and strictly in the most tasteful and artistic of settings, there's boobs. Join Matt and Tristan as they decide if they are Sex Geezers, or members of the Geek Squad during a discussion of 1984's Hardbodies.
Josh Annand shares his tips on how to chase jewfish on the north coast of NSW and surrounds using lures.
We are talking with Actor, Director, Producer Dimitri Logothetis about his directorial debut, PRETTY SMART. Dimitri shares with us the origin of getting the film made including Tony Randal's ulterior motive for getting New World Pictures involved. More importantly, we learn that playing with an Ouiji board in a Greek hotel while high can drive you to make some pretty rash decisions. We also learn about Dimitris's pitch to direct HARDBODIES 2. He talks about the making of SLAUGHTERHOUSE ROCK and shares a story about the ghosts that may or may not live in solitary confinement. We also talk with Dimitri about his latest production, JIU JITSU featuring Nicolas Cage. Plus, if you take a shot every time Marc says, "right", you will most certainly be drunk by the end of the episode. Good luck.

She's been in dozens of movies and television shows since the early 80's when she was the star of a video series called "Aerobicise" at the beginning of the 80's aerobics craze. She recently wrapped up filming and reprising her role as "Nikki" from F13 Part 6 in "Vengeance 2: Bloodlines" the sequel to "Friday the 13th: Vengeance" a Friday the 13th fan film.

Yes, we're still examining every "backdoor pilot" episode of The Facts of Life, and we've arrived at "Jo's Cousin," which features, you know, Jo's cousin. She's 14-year-old aspiring mechanic Terry, played by the star of Kornflake's beloved Anne of Green Gables! We also meet Terry's angry father (you know him from Soap and Battlestar Galactica), her goofy brothers (including the star of Meatballs Part II), and their creepy friend (from the creepy classic Hardbodies). Armed with a Laura Ingalls dress and makeup advice from Blair, Terry arrives at her birthday dinner, everybody freaks out, and hilarity sort of ensues. Did this episode launch a successful spin-off series? Of course not. But do we love it anyway? You bet. Also discussed along the way: Jo vs. Amtrak, short-lived Italian family sitcoms (Mama Malone, The Tortellis, The Fanelli Boys), Birdie the Early Bird, mailing your children, and the horrors of early 80s frozen pizza.

Hey guys, why not cruise down to the beach, pop open a few brewskis, and dialogue it up with the hosts of Cult Film in Review as they discuss the 1984 comedy, Hardbodies. In this episode, Cody gives a little background on Hardbodies, the Playboy produced skin flick turned Hollywood comedy. It was the 80s, […] The post Hardbodies appeared first on Cult Film in Review.

PLUS: Mr. Skin, Gilbert Gottfried talk and more. Follow on Twitter: @mikemcbeardo Teen Movie Hell: A Crucible of Coming-of-Age Comedies from Animal House to Zapped! Born in the drive-in theater backseats of the 1970s, the demonic visions of Teen Movie Hell fueled the VCR, cable TV, and shopping mall multiplex booms of the 1980s before collapsing in the 1990s in a pixelated pile of cable dissipation and Internet indulgences. Between George Lucas's American Graffiti in 1973 and Richard Linklater's Dazed and Confused twenty years later, lust-driven laugh riots on the order of Animal House, Porky's, Fast Times at Ridgemont High, and Revenge of the Nerds boomed at the box office and conquered pop culture by celebrating adolescent misbehavior run amok.

How could we resist this? ABBA songs, Pierce Brosnan yowling, Stellan Skarsgaard shirtless and a sequel potentially less necessary than Hardbodies 2.
Seeing as it's Summer (and with Summer comes long vacations) we had a giant gap between us recording episodes giving us lots of time to watch movies - and watch them we did. This time we're talking about 19(!!) films including a return of waterbeds, a sci-fi series that Josh thinks was unfairly treated, legendary director William Friedkin's new documentary The Devil & Father Amorth, a 60's trip to the beach, a film that proves just how rad the 'kumite" really is, a duo of Lifetime Network films, a continuing trip into the collaborations between Vincent Price and Roger Corman, and so much more!

Kevin Duck, founder of DuckyWorld Products and creator behind the award winning Yeowww! brand of catnip and catnip toys, he’s made some real changes to the catnip industry. He is a man of many lives and talents, from production manager for Pink Floyd to selling cars, Kevin is a been there-done that kind of guy. Some would consider him to be a career connoisseur. His creativity and curiosity kept him on the hunt for work that really satisfied him, as an office job wasn’t going to work and he wanted to find something that people dream of and would be fun. Being a part of something creative like film got Kevin’s own creative juices flowing. The work really set him up for wanting to do something on his own. He started off in the pet industry by making disposable dog beds out of coffee bean sacks but became frustrated with the issues with making and shipping large, bulky items. He loved making things for animals and that lead him to catnip toys. In the past, he made his own cats toys and stuffed them with catnip, from that idea a company evolved, Duckyworld Products, Inc. This program has been sponsored by The International Culinary Center. Today’s music provided by Hardbodies. “We put the kitten back in the old puss.” [3:45] –Kevin Duck on Animal Instinct
