Cameos from Spring Break

I love that one of the guys who was one of Dalby's henchmen (John Archie) and Alex Panas, who was the drug dealer ("15 watts, 100 dollars.") in Spring Break were both in The New Kids. Archie was the algebra teacher and Panas was the guy who ran the paint store. Spring Break was one of the greatest movies of the '80s, and it was good to see that those guys got work after it wrapped.

I think this is one of the greatest of the 80's teen movies. I can't believe so many people do not like it. Another lesser known movie I wish netflix or crackle would show is Paradise Motel. It it is from this same time period. I would like to see Tuff Turf again as well. Spader is great in The New Kids and even better in Tuff Turf.

I agree! He plays the complete opposite role in Tuff Turf and pulls it off nicely!
