Bradley Brinkman is just an average guy, but he wants to be someone special when along comes a sexy apparition who offer to make him the sexiest guy in Sea Spray, a lush California Beach spot. For just a piece of his soul, Dr. D (the Devil) will transform him into a stud. He signs on the dotted line and is now turned into Hunk Golden. Suddently women want him and guys envy him. After a television appearance, he becomes a national sensation... but is Bradley going to be happy with his newfound success... or is there hell to pay for being a hunk?!

My friends and I however, who stumbled across this film nearly 20years on, believe this to be a genius attempt at spoof "magic comedy". It is more eighties than the eighties itself, and has a wonderful soundtrack which is a symphony of the decade's charm! Everyone knows the styles and mindset, and almost everything else about the eighties are funny, and with these amazing characters what can go wrong! It has a really great feel and dialogue. I loved the humour, a few things verging on weird but only one or two. It was so great to laugh at the stupid way of life a hunk leads! Like bedazzled but really focused on taking the Mick out of people. Ben stiller, Owen Wilson and Vince Vaughn would be great in a modern version of this film. pretty cheesy but i love it! They're just trying to have a laugh! A few nice ladies as well :D We liked it so much we went out and bought it the next day! Wicked stuff.
