Movie Loft presents “Shag”

Movie Loft’s filmed in the Carolinas series goes beyond South of the Border this month!

For your summertime fun, Movie Loft presents the summertime blast Shag (1988)! The year is 1963, and four friends motor down to Myrtle Beach for a last hurrah before one of them gets hitched. Hijinks and dance contests ensue, it’s like ‘Where the Boys Are’ meets ‘Dirty Dancing’ on the boardwalk!

Zelda Barron directed Phoebe Cates, Annabeth Gish, Bridget Fonda and Page Hannah as the teens on a spree, all set to a super killer soundtrack! We’ll partake on VHS as well to get all of the original tunes (many of which didn’t make it to the DVD release). There will be an instructional shag video playing and dancing is both condoned and encouraged!!

Shag was very much a South Carolina product, with scenes filmed in Florence, Georgetown and Myrtle Beach.

Beach and shag records blastin’ and wieners grillin’ startin’ at 7! Movie to roll around 8. FREE! Donations appreciated. BYO or sample what’s on hand
