The Beach Party at the Threshold of Hell is a 2006 American science fiction comedy film directed by Jonny Gillette, written and co-directed by Kevin Wheatley, and produced by Jamie Bullock and Ryan Turi. It stars Wheatley and Bullock, amongst others.

Plot

The film is set in New America in the year 2097, two decades after a nuclear apocalypse. Tex Kennedy, the last survivor of the Kennedy family, two robotic ex-secret service agents, and a female cannibal journey to find the "Threshold of Hell" to gain access to a radio tower to unite the survivors of the apocalypse.[1]

Production and release

The movie premiered at the Los Angeles Film Festival on June 23, 2006, and then toured the country screening at various film festivals.[citation needed] The movie was picked up by National Lampoon for a theatrical release in October 2007.[2]

Critical reaction

Rotten Tomatoes records an aggregate rating of 67% from six reviews.[3] The Village Voice found it "self-impressed film", and considered it an over-deliberate attempt to create a cult film, which failed, "funnier on paper than in reality", making a negative comparison to the Mad Max franchise.[4]
