It's not too surprising that Shag flopped on its 1989 release but found a devoted cult following on cable TV and home video. This featherweight comedy looked like a waste of space on the big screen, but it plays very cozily on the tube, where it lends itself to popcorn breaks and pajama parties. (The lousy title must have had something to do with the movie's initial failure, a problem worsened by the film being marketed as Shag: The Movie, a truly dumb idea.) Shag is in the tradition of Spring Break pictures, a thoroughly formulaic stroll through the conventions of the minigenre: beachside romance, a wild party, one tender deflowering, and lots of rock & roll. The time is 1963, as three gal friends trick their soon-to-be-married pal (Phoebe Cates) into one final all-girl fling in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. Cates is engaged to a local well-bred stick (Tyrone Power Jr.), but soon she's tempted by a beach boy (Robert Rusler) bound for Yale (mm-hmm). The so-so material is buoyed by lovely Annabeth Gish, as the supposedly pudgy one in the group, and Bridget Fonda, as a prematurely sophisticated sexpot. After a while it's easy enough to relax and enjoy the girls' breezy adventures, which are served up without the soap opera melodrama of the similarly tooled Where the Boys Are. Oh, and Austin Powers notwithstanding, the title refers to the dance, not something else. --Robert Horton

 DVD remaster Sucks...Buy it on VHS instead. November 30, 2008
Don't buy Shag on DVD. You will be very disappointed. Buy it on VHS because that is the original one. The person that remastered it to DVD did a lousy job by replacing the original songs with horrible ones that I never heard of. It made the movie uninteresting.
 perfect condition November 24, 2008
I'm very satisfied with my purchase, the video was in perfect condition inside and out.
Great Service October 3, 2008
This movie was sent in a great timeframe after purchase and I did not have to wait for anything on this item. I would recommend this seller to anyone looking for a great turnaround time.
Thanks.
Great Summer Movie July 8, 2008
If you can't make it to the beach this summer - check out the Shag. Escapism at it's all time best
 Fun movie June 16, 2008
This item arrived quickly and in good condition. This is a good-time movie. The music (on the VHS version) is great.
