Three Buzzword Gem

Often times, the combination of 3 words in a title can make or break something. For instance, Vacation Bible School. (I stole this joke for the good of the argument). Those are 3 things that no kid really likes. And furthermore, you can't put any 2 of those words together and get excited...

School + Vacation
Vacation + Bible
Bible + School

Now let's take a look at the genius of this movie's title...

Computer Beach Party. All are winning combinations here.

Computer + Party - of course
Beach + Party - what are you, an A-HOLE?
Beach + Computer - it's a stretch for the 80's culture but I'll allow it here.

Bonus points - we get to go backwards in time and make fun of not only the fashion and haircuts of the past...but also of their stupid understanding of their lame Utopian Future.

The only other time I've observed such wizardry in nomenclature was a place in Acapulco called, "Sexy Club Gym". Didn't go in but I'll bet you 30 pesos and a Jarritos Grape drink that it kicked ass in every one of those categories and there wasn't a Bible or classroom to be found.
