10/10/2022 It's soo shamelessly Grindhouse, as with most Troma, but it doesn't quite thrill as much as a title like this would lead you to believe. It gets extra points though for the satisfaction of this particular revenge story. See more 03/13/2022 I may have gone on record numerous times of my intense displeasure with most Troma productions, but this was actually produced by The institute, a production company formed by George, Craig A. Colton and Robert Tinnell, and distributed by Troma. After the earthquake that's always been prophecized that will destroy the coastline of California finally arrives, Adolf (Barry Brenner) declares himself the Führer of the new beach and has his Surf Nazis attack all of the other rival surf gangs*. But when he murders Mama Washingon's (Gail Neely) son, he's finally made the mistake that will undo his foamy Fourth Reich. The original box of Surf Nazis Must Die used to practically shouts "Rent me!" from the shelves of every video store I ever went to, yet somehow I've never seen it until now. Probably​ the biggest selling point to me was the appearance of Bobbie Bresee, who won my heart in Mausoleum, showing up as Smeg's mom, who is very concerned about the path her son is going down. Somewhere in here is an idea for a really fun movie, more of The Warriors on a post-apocalyptic beach, and I love that. But it doesn't really have a focus, but then again, Mama Washington is such a great character and I love every moment that she's on screen. So…secret success? *The Samurais, The Pipeliners, the Skate Rats, Biker Bar and Designer Waves, made up of Curl Blow and Dry. Thanks Edith on Letterboxd!

See more 08/13/2018 Boring Troma film, slow-moving and stupid. See more 04/19/2018 I joined RT just so I could post a review of this movie. I discovered this on VHS at a Blockbuster in the mid-90s. I have watched it twice and never knew that is was post giant earthquake. But at least after the Big One they still have nursing homes and lots of people still go to the beach. This is definitely one of the "so bad it is good" movies. 3 fave things. In between scenes they cut to a shot of a single tree in a field - every time. There is a scene of a biker gang in a bar talking about drug deals and I never figured out how it related to the movie. Best line. A surf nazi wanna be talking to these girls says "Surfers rule the waves, surf nazis rule the surfers" Good but the best is the girl in the pink bikini says "Well nah nah" See more 10/30/2016 A bunch of fun The Warriors style themed gangs rival over the beaches. The surf nazis kill a black guy and the mom becomes hellbent on revenge. Lots of fun costumes and silly characters. Really cool synth soundtrack. Would be a great movie to see in a small theater, but still fun at home. See more Read all reviews
