Candy Johnson & Vincent Price

[@romcallis]

The only movies where you look forward to the credits

[@tycrump3581]

I loved how Candy would either open or close the shows. She could dance her ass off

[@coleparker]

I was growing up in Huntington Beach CA. (the Original Surf City) when these Beach movies came out. Use to watch them multiple times at the old Surf Theater. Love the music and the simple story lines.

[@Scrappergal65]

Love Candy! She will always be a cherished part of my childhood! God Bless you Candy!

[@sidneycollier74]

DAMN! HER ENERGY WAS INSANE!!!!😄😄😄

[@arlenerogerswilhite2236]

Loved these movies and trying to dance like Candy!!!

[@MichaelMosesHammer]

Candy was a " rock solid " dancer. I have never seen another dancer like her. What she did, was much harder than it looked. Try to keep up with her! )

[@lettyguerra371]

Michael Hammer , and she did it in that cool super right deess!

[@martyhowell4043]

I've always marveled at the level of conditioning she must have possessed to dance with such intensity. I don't think she had on ounce of fat on her! Aerobics of the pre-jogging generation!

[@m.oriley8260]

Candy would do a show each night in Palm Springs then drive to L.A. to be on a film set by 6a.m. She subsisted on donuts, coffee and soda to keep her energy level up. What we do for art!

[@Bultaco15]

This sure beats watching the energizer bunny. In her day, she would most likely have outlasted the wabbit too

[@CityGirlCountry]

I love that era!

[@michaelstevensmlw]

She was great! Too bad she was taken too early. Hope she had a lot of fun doing those movies. RIP.

[@SuperWolsey]

Michael Stevens indeed

[@arlenerogerswilhite2236]

@MichaelStevens I was wondering if she had passed. thank you she was class

[@allancove4483]

@@arlenerogerswilhite2236 She died in her sleep. Cause of her death was brain cancer. So sad.

[@nice95gle]

To really get the full extent of her talent. Watch this without any sound. Simply amazing 😳😳😳

[@cnoevl67]

The AIP Beach comedies could probably all easily be condensed into a campy stage musical. But where is the next Candy Johnson or Harvey Lembeck?

[@dm19609721]

Never tire of watching Candi dancing 😞

[@MlleCantonVaud]

Ohhwolfy, she did pass away on 10/10/12. She had been in treatment for brain cancer for some time and after all efforts by her doctors failed she went to a hospice in Corona to live out her final days. After her Hollywood career ended in '64 and her dancing career a few years later, she became a recluse and kept a very low profile.

[@kalicokids]

I was an avid dancer in high school , and always wanted to dance with Candy , watched the movies just to watch her dance...

[@phyllisgarber7997]

You too,!! I went to all the dance places back then and I even tried a little Go-Go dancing and of course I used a lot of steps that Candy used. Now in my golden years I am suffering from extreme osteoporosis and I've had about six bones break in my back but what is surprising to the doctors is that I don't need to get around with a wheelchair or a cane or anything because my legs are in good shape yep even at 74 and that's because of all the dancing I did when I was young and even now sometimes I'll dance around the room as best I can and my birds look at me like I'm a little crazy but I don't care. I have to believe that watching candy when I was growing up and trying to do her steps help strengthen my legs for my old goalie years

[@maryscarbrough1797]

I REMEMBER DANCING LIKE THIS

[@efrem1]

First Candy and now Annette. Miss the beach fun movies. RIP to both of you.

[@SuperWolsey]

and Deborah Walley

[@fu2201]

I want Candy

[@kirufusmcclure1]

GO CANDY GO GIRL!

[@jameskearnes1118]

Is it true that Candy Johnson has passed? Loved watching her dance in the beach movies then as I do now. RIP Candy, you will be missed.

[@homelesshannah50]

Yup she passed away

[@WestSideModSquad]

I could watch Candy dance all night....thanks for sharing.

[@ohhhwolfy]

Someday 6-inch-tall holograms on a base will be available to buy for entertainment or decorative purposes. What you see here is what I want: Candy Johnson dancing to Beach Party! I could watch her over and over again!

[@skylx0812]

...that woman was from another universe wasn't she

[@efrem1]

Sorry to see you go Candy. I just found out about this and it seems that you valued your privacy. In a world of internet communication, your continued anonymity was a collossal feat. RIP

[@okgo620]

Doesn't she have strange superpowers from her dancing? 😂 I remember she be dancing and she sticks out some hip pose and some dude would be flying across the room.

[@sidneycollier74]

I remember she was the highlight of all the beach movies!!!she was badd as fuck dancing!...those were the days white girls could seriously dance!!!!

[@BobChippewa]

Just think 60 years ago parents thought this was not suitable for teens.

[@sheliabesemann554]

Anyone know what kind of hair spray she used? All of that and her hair never moved one bit!

[@slc2466]

Love watching Candy on an obvious sugar rush!

[@phyllisgarber7997]

She was my favorite, even over Annette and Frankie. Because of her and Goldie Hawn I danced and danced and now at 74 I have osteoporosis but in my back not my legs because those bones are strong from all the dancing

[@gregoryagogo]

a gallon of hairspray guarantees her style never moves!

[@renesagahon4477]

Dosent get any better than this.

[@ohhhwolfy]

Yeaaah.....OK, too bad. I still had hope because since she left show business nearly 50 years ago no one had heard much - if anything - about Candy, let alone her death. If that's the way she wanted it, so be it. She no doubt deserved her privacy. You seem to know many details on her passing. Thanks for verifying that it's true. RIP Candy, you certainly made ME smile lots of times!

[@TransVangal]

I like this song wow

[@TransVangal]

She was so wild

[@charlesphillips1468]

Ok, so what was Vincent Price doing in a beach party film? Scaring the heck out of the girls?

[@chrisholcombe137]

Ginger Rogers kept better than Fred Astair ! In Heals . I know , I Am old . Awesome Energy .

[@cnoevl67]

They should make fun of these Beach Party Candy Johnson closing credits on American Dad with Roger the alien as her.

[@kduideo]

oh gosh i agree!! Thanks TO THISTV for airing all the moviea this weekend as a trib!!

[@can-man5531]

Candice Johnson is the subject of the song- "I want Candy" -by various artists covers, including Bow wow wow.

[@BalBurgh]

There’s no evidence of that. When the Bow Wow Wow song was released in 1982, it featured a female singer singing about a boy. It’s totally ok if you think of this as a theme song for Ms. Johnson, however, because she *is* pretty awesome!

[@neilg2640]

​@@BalBurghThe original song was from 1965 by The Strangeloves. Bow Wow Wow was a cover. The writers did attribute the song to Candy Johnson after seeing her dance at the 1964 World's Fair in NYC.

[@mannecyberguy]

I agree, I'd love to see any of these hip hop dancers keep up with her; half of them would probably die from exhaustion.

[@homelesshannah50]

I still try I'm going to try again today but yeah I probably pass out

[@shakiya2]

She's still alive. Someone posted on the other video of Candy dancing that their aunt is living in Corona, CA.

[@MlleCantonVaud]

Candy passed away on 10/20/12 in Corona, CA at age 68.

[@margaretgarnto6272]

I downloaded this video because of the funny cameo appearance of my favorite horror film actor, Vincent Price, especially the part where his eyes open wide and make me laugh. They're the funniest pair of eyes he ever had in his head.

[@parkman35]

Candy always danced barefoot...

[@MrBBJane]

@ cnoevl67 : PSYCHO BEACH PARTY is the perfect "campy beach musical"...

[@severusscorpus1175]

I wonder what God thinks about her 🔥

[@treesloth9]

....or Many Moe and Jack, Viva Las Vegas by the DKs or any of the 100s of great up tempo jams of the late 70s and early 80's Punk New scene

[@turbinexman]

Candy Johnson was so beautiful!!

[@treesloth9]

Turn down the volume on this and play the song Fan Mail by the Dickies instead. Pure Energy.

[@ohhhwolfy]

I believe "our" Candy Johnson is still with us. Wikipedia says yes, she passed away. But the Wikipedia site is easily edited and manipulated. Doing a lot of research (Google & news search engines) I found no evidence that Candy passed away. I did find out that another Candy Johnson - a former staff sargeant - passed away this past October. I think the two were confused.

[@twist3535]

@cnoevl67 Make fun of her? She was awesome... I'd like to see about anyone keep up with her step for step!

[@squanto2]

Hey! That's my gramma!!!!

[@roxanneist]

i love candy johnson dancing and twist. i ask u is candy still alive? i want to know

[@tommy2chips]

man she was wiggling shaking, twisting and whatever. awesome.

[@Tommytwothumbs999]

Its a cruel, cruel world were a 15-16 year old guy cant look forward to banging a hot 28-30 something year old broad like this for an adventure !!! Cougar hunting and mad MILF moms ruled , yes i was an over sexed punk ! lol Sad, sad world we live in today i feel sorry for the kids !

[@missyrogers7098]

She looks 65

[@homelesshannah50]

First off who is hot? Not her second she was that age in the damn 60's not now and she passed away already dummy

[@Shahrdad]

Funny how that hair never gets out of place despite her frenetic dancing!

[@homelesshannah50]

Hair spray

[@dkapone]

She should have been my wife.

[@fredtello]

So good....

[@DediJ8k]

Do the wounded turkey!

[@JimyzVegas]

Nice

[@jonathantoole1]

Trying to figure out which one of these females is transgender

[@dougcrawford8055]

This shure worked for me when I was ten, (still does) and I think the bare feet go best during a dance routine . . . somebody tell Beyoncé'. I'm sure everyone in the world would like to witness that

[@zachzaffis979]

Worst C-Walk ever.

[@MrMartybearass]

man we had some great flix and times then!!!

[@MrMartybearass]

would this not be cool redone in 3d????
