One Crazy Summer is a 1986 American romantic comedy film, written and directed by Savage Steve Holland, starring John Cusack, Demi Moore, Bobcat Goldthwait, Curtis Armstrong and Joel Murray.

En route, they pick up a young rock singer named Cassandra Eldridge who is pursued by a motorcycle gang at the time.

Once on the island, Hoops and George, along with twin brothers Egg and Clay Stork and outcast Ack-Ack Raymond, must help Cassandra save her grandfather's house from the greedy Beckersted family (led by the callous Aguilla).

Before Aguilla could shoot the mast again, he is thrown overboard by Squid, who is operating a mechanical dolphin from a nearby movie set, as retaliation for when he kicked her beloved dog earlier.

Hoops and his friends celebrate their victory—they are awarded the prize, Squid's dog turns out okay (after giving birth to puppies), George hooks up with Cookie, and Ack-Ack wins his stern father's approval for his heroics.

In the final scene, George's uncle Frank finally wins a $1 million prize from a radio contest (having been driven insane every summer for trying to win), but his phone gets disconnected and his prize is given away to someone else; he snaps and promptly uses Ack-Ack's rocket launcher to blow up the radio station, and shortly thereafter the Stork twins arrive and head to the still-burning station to roast marshmallows.

The inside of General Raymond's Army-Navy store is Mass Bay Company, located at 595 Main Street, Hyannis, Massachusetts.

Hoops McCann is named after the protagonist in Steely Dan's song "Glamour Profession" from the Gaucho album, who is described as a professional basketball player in Los Angeles.

"[4] Pat Graham of the Chicago Reader found it "Not a bad film, and certainly more polished than Holland's Better Off Dead debut, though it's marred by unevenness and the director's ineradicable penchant for infantile clowning.
