Wait a minute! Nightmare Bay is NOT the pilot!
Just swell.I bought this DVD thinking that 'Nightmare Bay' was, as described, 'the feature-length movie that started it all'. Wrong. As I discovered upon watching it, and remembering back about ten years, 'Nightmare Bay' is actually the two-parter that started the SECOND season. 'Panic At Malibu Pier' was the real pilot film, and the one I was really after. I wouldn't mind so much, but it was neither the film I was after, nor was it very good. The second season was made with a small cast and lacked any of the glamour of the first or subsequent few seasons. 'River of No Return' is a bit better, being the start of the 3rd season and the story where Pamela Anderson, Nicole Eggert and David Charvet were introduced (and where Billy Warlock and Erica Eleniak bowed out).So, if it's the pilot you're after, this isn't it. The only place I have found it is on Amazon.co.uk, on the VHS PAL format. That's okay for me, but most Amazon.com shoppers are probably live in the US and need NTSC. Hope this helped.
