    Storyline

    • Trivia
      While filming No Way Out (1987), Kevin Costner contacted Eric Louzil to buy the rights to Malibu Hot Summer (1981) and Shadows Run Black (1984), which Louzil produced. But Louzil had already sold the rights to Troma. Costner was pissed. He had appeared in both movies early in his career and he didn't want anyone to see them now that his career was starting to take off. Louzil said in 2002 that he'd given about 300 interviews about Costner once he became a star because of the two films.
    • Goofs
      (at around 57 mins) When Victoria Taft gets out of bed and answers the phone, she is nude. As she brings the phone up to her ear, she has on a white bikini bottom.
    • Alternate versions
      The German video version released in 1992 misses two scenes (some talking in an office and a sex scene). The new video release by Troma includes the sex scene but still misses the talking in the office.

    is it really a pre Boogie nNights?
    I have seen Sizzle Beach on a DVD and gristly to say, the extra's Troma Studios put on the DVD are more fun than the movie itself. The movie is originally released as Malibu Hot Summer in '74 starring Kevin Costner playing one of his first roles. In this film he is playing a rancher that meets a couple of women who just arrived in L.A. He is showing them the way in the hard and quick city of Los Angeles. If you like Troma movies this is a must see. All the typical Troma aspects can be seen: bare cheasted ladies, a "pimpy" midget, some lesbian scenes, lots of topless swimming and on top some great music. If you are into that and don't mind the absence of acting Sizzle beach might be the predecessor of Boogie Nights.
