Mr. Magic, the beach party movie genre of the '60s was great fun. I definitely recommend checking out at least one or two of them one day. I'm a big enough fan of the genre that I could definitely help recommending some of the better beach party films. Beach Party and Beach Blanket Bingo are considered by most to be the best of the bunch. You might want to check out one or both of those. Beach Blanket Bingo is often considered to be the best by critics, but Beach Party came first and is my personal favorite.

As for that clip, I remember first seeing it while watching AMC's American Pop, which was a short-lived block on AMC where the network would air an old movie (often a beach party film) and then follow it up with old trailers, music clips, and drive-in movie ads to round out the two hour time slot. It makes me very nostalgic just thinking about it because that block was the beginning of me becoming fascinated with '60s pop culture.
