Notes: 4/6/11
One of those snapshots of the world of rock & roll.
Not as amateurish or dumb as others of its kind.
Title song is catchy. Can't imagine the twist ever being popular.
The Wanderer and Runaround Sue are such good songs.
Dion is probably the film's highlight.
The film's plot is silly, but not entirely stupid.
Checker perform the songs and dances they originated.
Review: C
Yet another snapshot of Americana, this time depicting the rise in popularity of the dance craze 'the twist'. Not as amateurish or dumb as previous films of its kind. The opportunity to see Dion perform The Wanderer and Runaround Sue is reason enough to check this out. Chubby Checker also appears to perform his hit songs.
