Andy Sidaris
Feb. 20, 1931 - Mar. 7, 2007
Andy Sidaris was the man. Period. After a long career as a respected producer for ABC Sports, he retired and moved to Hawaii. It was there he began his real career...making movies. And not just any movies. Ambitious films with lots of car chases, secret agents, and explosions. And tits. Lots and lots of tits. Almost exclusively former Playboy Playmates, Andy Sidaris' actresses found an excuse to get topless at almost every turn. It was a beautiful thing. He had some earlier directorial credits on various TV shows and movies, but is best known for the so-called "Malibu Bay" series of films. Between 1985 and 1998, Sidaris made 10 connected secret agent films, all concerning "The Agency" and the frequently naked agents employed by it. These included Malibu Express, Hard Ticket To Hawaii, and Picasso Trigger. And they weren't made with a penny of studio money...he financed them himself. After he stopped directing, he made appearances in all three of Jim Wynorski's Bare Wench parodies as sleaze mogul "Dick Bigdickian". Not bad, not bad at all. Good job, Andy. We need more guys like you.
