Thrashin

Ok, this is the SwampCat 2007 movie nomination for best movie of all time. And the winner is obviously THRASHIN!!!! This movie has been rocking since 1986 and still totally rules. When I was seven my dad bought me and my brother this movie on Beta. Do you even know what Beta is?? (It's like mini VHS tapes.) Me and my brother watched this movie everyday, and soon after, bought skateboards, and cut up black electrical tape into post-punk sayings like "SKATE THE POOL" or "LOCALS ONLY." The plot of Thashin is awesome! Cory Webster, the hero, goes to LA to enter a bunch of skate competitions and hook up with his Valley boy buddies . . . but, there is a bad guy gang of skaters called the DAGGERS!!!!! Who are friggin bad-ass. And of course Cory Webster falls in love with the main Dagger's sister. Which pisses everybody off. So, it all ends in this narly downhill battle. And Rodney Mullen does stunt skating in it, and the Red Hot Chilly Peppers are there too. This movie is rad and I give it the SwampCat Movie Award of all Time.
