STUCK ON VHS: Computer Beach Party (1988)

Many Sundays throughout the year we will be highlighting a few titles that are considered to be "stuck" on VHS, with no physical releases since the format (discounting VHS transfers on DVDs, etc.) for various reasons, i.e. legal ownership disputes, music licensing issues, or perhaps just perceived lack of interest.

From the back of the box:


"All circuits are go in this old-fashioned high-tech COMPUTER BEACH PARTY! Toss around the floppy disc, open a bag of micro chips and interface with a sexy comedy that will light up your terminal.

Surfing buddies, Andy and Dennis, find their prime surf turf is going to be radically changed by uncool Mayor Dawes for a private development - a real beach bummer! Realizing that things don't compute, the guys plan a major mayor protest party on the beach by linking up hundreds of friends on their home computer. Using their hardware to attract software, they have created a whole new version of The Data Game! Come down to the shore for a totally gnarly bash that Annette and Frankie could only dream about."
