Hard Ticket to Hawaii (1987)

[Catchmoriarty 2]

This is my top reccomendaion for a terribly awesome movie http://m.imdb.com/title/tt0093146/

 

At first glance this movie just looks like any generic 80's cop movie, but hold on to your hat!

You follow the lives of two attractive blonde female Drug enforcement agents to Hawaii to take down a drug ring. Explosions, deadly loose snake, nudity, bad 80's hair. What more could you want? Seriously, watch this movie right now.

Dude all of those Andy Sidaris movies are like that. He went from being a sports director who covered things like Monday Night Football and the 68 Summer Olympics to making these softcore porn action flicks. The series has like a dozen movies in it and features some character actors like Pat Morita, Danny Trejo, Erik Estrada, and even pro wrestlers. These movies were nuts in that the Playmates, Penthouse Pets, and porn stars were trying to play their roles straight but looked horrible and then totally went all in during their numerous sex scenes.

Amazing movie. Might be a little obscure for the podcast but plenty of stuff to talk about.

 

There is an Andy Sidaris dvd collection on Amazon that is really cheap and great.

I am begging you guys to do this movie.

I think this would be just as great to cover as Miami Connection. It's super bonkers. Here is the imdb page http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0093146/ and check out this amazing scene with the skateboard assassin

. It's also got a frisbee game that ends in decapitation, an exploding blow up doll (see youtube clip above) and an extremely large-breasted woman shooting a snake in the face.

This film is amazing.

Red Letter Media did this recently, maybe a bit too recently for another podcast to do it? Don't know.

I guess that's why they call it *puts on sunglasses* a blow up doll.

A Skinemax flick from the 80s. You really have to see it for yourself and it's up on youtube. I'm not sure how HDTGM would handle this but it's just a suggestion. If it had a rating it would either be a R or NC-17 for topless scenes.

Let's not forget that a subplot of this movie involves a snake with cancer or somesuch disease that makes it incredibly dangerous and that Ridge Forrester from The Bold and the Beautiful kills a guy with a Frisbee surrounded by razor blades.

Just recently watched this and it is crazily brilliant, they should definitely do this on the podcast, woudl love to hear June's thoughts on the snake and the diamond smuggling ring not to mentions everyone's thoughts on Shades and his Frisbee related fatality and skateboard dudes failed drive by attempt

[HilahMae 14]

So this movie is available in it's entirety on youtube.

 

Here is a link to one of the best bits -

Sorry, I couldn't find any other way to share it.

[SamLoveridge 1]

I have never seen a movie more suitable for How Did This Get Made, and I've seen Sgt Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band twice.

[RyanSz 3140]

They could easily do a run on the first 4-5 movies in by Sidaris in the same way that they did a string of Cannon films. What's great is that basically all of the series outside of the really softcore ones, have been posted in their entirety by one dude on Youtube.

A great movie with a great story behind it. They should definitely tackle this.

[NathanGordon 1096]

Most of the Sidaris movies are fun as hell because they're totally self-aware. Sidaris knew exactly what he wanted in his films -- hot chicks with big boobs! tough guys with cool cars! guns and explosions! and then ninjas! -- and he created exactly that. He's one of the best directors of exploitation cinema in the 1980s and early 90s. His movies are the fever dream of a 12-year old boy whose parents let him rent R-rated videos -- just pure, unironic, dumb fun.

[MarcNado 28]

I just watched another Sidaris film "Picasso Trigger" at the weekend, which is no where as good as this so I ended up re-watching Hard ticket to Hawaii, Still can't believe they have not done this on HDTGM it is perfect for them

One of the live shows this week!

AT LAST!!

Ronn Moss .......of "The Bold and the Beautiful" fame? I never knew he did movies. His acting on the soap is quite infamous. After this podcast, I'm sure his movie acting will be as well.

 

Ronn Moss as "Ridge Forrester"

 

"RICK!"

[Bae of Pigs 15]

Prediction: Jason will like this movie, June will not.

[KLK 12]

Oh and I forgot. Ronn Moss, bass player extraordinaire of the band Player! Baby you can blame it all on me, but Ronn, your bad acting in this movie I'm gonna blame all on you.
