MST3K: Catalina Caper

Joel and the Bots must endure the cheese that is Lee Sholem's 1967 beach blanket blunder.Tommy Kirk, Venita Wolf, and Lyle Waggoner in a plot that involves beach parties, scuba diving, crazy dancing, and the search for a stolen artifact. If that doesn't sound campy enough, just wait until Little Richard shows up to sing the song Scuba Party. Let's just hope that's where most of the budget went. For ages 10 and up. 84 min. Beamed from DVD, which is more than it deserves.
