If you like Bikini Carwash Company then you'll like California Hot Wax. It's not quite as good as BCC, but story is almost exactly the same. It's filmed in the same vein as BCC, with a hard rockin' guitar score. There are some genuine funny parts in it. But most of all, the women...there are some gorgeous women in the movie.

e737 April 2001This movie is not worth seeing, unless you're looking for really bad movies. I saw it a couple of years ago and is now thinking of seeing it again just to laugh at the bad acting, the lousy story and the 8-10 cars always beeing washed at the carwash. The budget was probably not big enough to use more than a few cars... This movie is only remembered because it's the worst I've seen...

BandSAboutMovies30 September 2023California Hot Wax is also Bikini Carwash.
However, it is not 1992's The Bikini Car Company or 1993's The Bikini Carwash Company, both of which also aired on USA Up All Night.
Neither are All American Bikini Car Wash from 2015.
This movie is also not Starhops even though it's the same exact story.
Three Southern Californian women - Kelly (Gloria Nelson), Lita (Tess Martinelli) and Monica (Augusta Lee) - have lost their restaurant to an evil landlord named Rocky (Steve Rothman), who has sons named Rocky II (Dexter Everhart) and Rocky III, kicks them out. They throw all their food at him and all over themselves, which means they have to go to a carwash to clean themselves up and all the boned out dudes watching them start paying them money for no reason.
Scott (Jody Bradley), the owner of the carwash, goes into business with them as the Bikini Carwash as long as he opens a restaurant for them which is called Eat My Taco.
Butch Hartman - yes, the guy who created Danny Phantom and The Fairly OddParents, acts in this movie. It was probably made when he was just getting into animation as he was also on Growing Pains, Days of Our Lives, Generations and Just the Ten of Us from 1987 to 1991 while he was also on working on movies like An American Tail, My Little Pony, It's Punky Brewster, Dink, the Little Dinosaur and Pocahontas. He was also a contestant on the Match Game Hollywood Squares Hour around this time.
Other cast members of note include Carla and Carmen Morelli, twin sisters who appeared in several issues of Playboy and Basket Case 3 together; adult star Carol Cummings (who also used the name Kimberly Spiess for mainstream movies like this, Psycho Cop Returns and Last Dance); Darlene Sellers (Dinosaur Island); Elizabeth Young (Class of Nuke 'Em High Part 2 and 3); Sandra Wild (Sandy from Fit to Kill) and Sharon Kane, who is a member of the AVN and XRCO Halls of Fame who you may know best from Alex De Renzy's Pretty Peaches.
California Hot Wax was directed by Jan Marlyn Reesman, who acted in Fatal Instinct and Crystal Force, and written by Karl J. Niemiec, whose IMDB claims is the grandson of Detroit Polish mobsters.
Cool. This movie isn't all that good, but if you were in puberty, it was probably pretty good while it lasted. -
azcat1219 August 2005I get it.. no money and it needed to sell. The regular cast was wonderful. the "babe's" bad. The script not so good overall. but it was a near perfect"no money l"et's get it made" type film. I recognize some of the players. Love The Rocky son's.. They seem to be improvising and doing it well. Love to know what everyone is doing now. Okay, the music a "sucky"and the pretty babes were repeated shots, but that's what this audience wants, I'd guess. That looks like Butch Hartman the animator? He was lots of fun to watch. Boo to the spoilers who don't get this. The photography was very well done. Low budget, wet streets. This was more then "let's get a barn and put up a play".
