4.0 out of 5 stars Totally wrong, awful... and yet, July 18, 2000

I think it's safe to say you will either love this film or hate it. I am one of the former, but am hard-pressed to tell you why. It's one of those movies that's so completely without any redeeming value that it actually ends up being enjoyable. If I had to describe it, I'd call it a cross between "Repo Man" and "Plan 9 From Outer Space"... with nazis and surfing thrown in for good measure. If you can enjoy something lewd, crude, bizarre, and outrageously bad, you'll probably laugh yourself silly and enjoy this movie. If not, you'll probably want to burn it.

3.0 out of 5 stars A Guilty Pleasure!, May 26, 2006

This review is from: Surf Nazis Must Die (DVD)

In the near future, a Californian beach has been taken over by a ruthless gang called "The Surf Nazis" whom are modern day neo-nazis and their leader nicknamed Adolph who literally can surf and would hurt anyone who enters their territory or gets in their way. When an African-American fellow named Leroy gets murdered by them, his mother sets off to buy weapons as she plots to take revenge for her son's death.

Silly and entertaining Sci-fi action comedy romp from Troma which is not as bad as some people say! what can you expect from the studios? yes there is bad acting and cheesy special effects but there's some nice action sequences, nudity and violence abound, if you can suspend your disbelief then you'll enjoy this movie like any B-movie or Troma flicks.

This DVD has good picture and sound quality as the movie is the unrated director's cut with scenes cut out when it came out to theaters back in 1987 and has goodies like an introduction by Troma's founder Lloyd Kaufman, a interactive tour of the Troma studios building, the original Theatrical trailer and other Tromatic trailers, Troma Intelligence Test, interviews, deleted scenes, and more.

Also recommended: "Battle Royale 1 & 2", "Terminator Trilogy", "A Clockwork Orange", "Mad Max", "The Road Warrior", "Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome", "The Warriors", "Escape from New York", "The Running Man", "Barefoot Gen", "Fist of the North Star (Anime)", "Troma's War", "Combat Shock", "Akira", "Natural Born Killer", "Rock & Rule", "They Live", "Leon The Professional", "Shaft ( 1971 and 2000)", "Cannibal! The Musical", "American History X", "Riki-Oh: The Story of Ricky", "I Spit on Your Grave", "Total Recall", "Robocop", "Tank Girl", "Wizards", "Blade Runner", "Waterworld" and "Sgt. Kubikiman NYPD".

5.0 out of 5 stars A beautiful film, December 12, 2010

This review is from: Surf Nazis Must Die (DVD)

I must say this is one of my all-time favorite films. It's beautifully filmed and choreographed, with interesting characters. It also features one of the best film scores of all time. However, it is probably not what people expect given the title and cover art. This is more of an artistic work in independent film territory, than the regular sorts of pulp films put out by Troma. It doesn't really fit in well with the rest of their catalogue. And while the Toxic Avenger is slightly amusing, I'm not much of a fan of Troma's other work, so perhaps that is saying something.

This is also not a film for the ADD generation. It has a leisurely pace and isn't non-stop explosions, which is why I imagine so many people here find it boring. They would probably find "Conspiracy" (another nazi related film, w/ Kenneth Branagh), boring as well, even though that is an excellent, excellent film. If you can't be pulled in to the mood of this film and be compelled by the beauty in it, then I don't think you are going to enjoy this one. It would also help if you are a fan of the 80s time period.

By the way, I do like watching horrible movies for comedic value (a'la MST3K), so I can definitely appreciate that sensibility. But I don't put this film in that category.
