Steven Lyon in Valet Girls


'The cuisine here is great, but the parking sucks!'


In the 1986 music comedy, Valet Girls, a young woman who aspires to a singing career gets herself and her best friend a job as valet parking girls at a Malibu party. They take the job in order to meet people who can help them achieve their dreams.


Steven Lyons, (credited as Steve) plays Ike, one of the Valet boys working alongside the valet girls.  Unlike Campus Man, which was an enjoyable flick to check out, Valet Girls was difficult to get through.  The acting wasn't great and there wasn't really much of a story, or characters to care about.  


Every year of the 80's was stuffed full of silly comedies, and there's a reason this one isn't really remembered by many.  If there was a saving grace, it was the movies last few minutes.  Sadly, audiences who saw the film in the theatre, had to sit through 82 minutes to get there.


Since I watched the film on-line, I got to fast forward through most of the film and get quickly to the end, and another quick flash of Lyon's end.  Given this was a 'teen comedy' they could have given us a bit more skin, but given Lyon appeared in so few films, I'll take what I can get.  You can download the video on SENDSPACE HERE:
