Stomp! Shout! Scream! is a 2005 retro beach-party rock-'n'-roll monster movie film directed by Jay Wade Edwards. It was Edwards’s first feature film as writer/producer/director and premiered at the Austin Film Festival in October 2005 to good reviews.[1][2] The film has gone on to screen at more than twenty film festivals and won several awards, including Best Feature Film at The Magnolia Independent Film Festival and nominations for Best Cinematography and Best Set Design at the B-Movie Film Festival. It had a theatrical release in 2009 by Indican Pictures with the title Monster Beach Party (AKA Monster Beach Party A-Go-Go) and later DVD and streaming distribution.[3]
Synopsis[edit]
The movie is set in 1966 and intertwines the adventures of an all-girl garage rock band with the legend of the Skunk Ape (the Florida Everglades’ version of Bigfoot). Theodora, Jody and Carol, collectively known as The Violas, are on tour when their van breaks down in a small southern beach town. Meanwhile, the local police are investigating the disappearance of the parents of a little girl who was found walking the beach in a state of shock. But they are also trying to determine the origins of a strange pile of pungent debris that has washed up on the beach. Scientist John Patterson is called in to help investigate. Both John and a local mechanic, Hector Garcia, fall for The Violas’ lead singer, Theodora. She initially shows little interest in them, however, and seems to be harboring a mysterious past. Hector convinces the girls to stay in town when he offers to repair their van in exchange for playing at his party, but a strange and menacing creature appears to be on the loose…
