It features appearances by The Supremes, The Walker Brothers, and The Righteous Brothers.[2]

Production
The film was produced by Bart Patton, an actor who did some production work for Roger Corman. Corman gave him $100,000 to make a beach party movie, of which $22,000 was already earmarked to Edd Byrnes. Patton wanted to direct but Corman did not let him having already hired comic Lennie Weinrib to make his debut as director. (Patton and Weinrib would later form a production company.) [4]
Stephanie Rothman worked on the movie as a production assistant, shooting second unit for the car chase scene with Aaron Kincaid. Gary Kurtz was assistant director.
In November 1964 Tommy Kirk was originally announced as male star along with Noel Edmonds.[5] In December 1964 Chris Noel signed and Kirk was still attached.[6] Kirk eventually dropped out of the film and was replaced by Edd Byrnes.[7]
Noel says Byrnes was "a jerk" during the making of the film although the two of them later became friends.[8]
The Supremes were paid $2,500 to appear in the film. The Righteous Brothers got $500 and the Hondells $400.[9]
Reception
