Subject: Filmed in the run down part of Mayberry
This is a great bad movie. It looks like it's an episode of "The Andy Griffith Show" gone horribly wrong. Beehive hairdo's on the old Aunt Bee's, chubby guys wearing clothes from Mayberry's Fashionable Man line who think they're beatniks ... it's just loads of fun. You even have the beatnik who talks tough but thinks he's a cross between Frank Sinatra and Frankie Avalon. Actually, Tony Travis was a pretty good singer, but the Beatles were just over the horizon ...

A tale about some middle aged " beatniks " that just can't make the scene. Dreadfully awful in a flat out funny way..man it's swingin.

If you'd like to see a good version, watch the MST3K.

The mp4 plays fine for me with vlc or quicktime. The flash player version works in-browser. I didn't try the other ones.
