Christopher "Loin Cloth" Atkins could probably go to the University of California, Berkeley, named by 24 percent of college presidents. Christopher Atkins, we hope you won't recall, stripped for Princeton's Brooke in Blue Lagoon, posed naked with a snake (Nastassia looked better) for a pin-up poster, showed all to Playgirl, and go-go danced for Lesley Ann Warren in his latest flick. A Night in Heaven. At Cal/Berkeley, he could get degree credit for that. Even we could get Cal/Berkeley degree credit for stripping. Need we say more...

...save the flame-tressed Lyssa (Lysette Anthony). His hearty crew: a wizened wizard named Ynyr (Freddie Jones), a sad-faced Cyclops (Bernard Bresslaw), the scabrous brigand Torquil (Alun Armstrong) and Ergo, the inept conjurer (David Battley). The villain: a reptilian Beast who looks like the Alien from the Black Lagoon...

During the past six years, the Army has spent about $50 million in an attempt to tidy up the area. An accelerated evaporation process has shrunk the murky green liquid in one lagoon from 200 million gal. to 55 million gal. The water, however, is still so polluted it occasionally kills birds. To scare them off, the Army in 1976 put flashing lights on barges and ringed the lake with Zong guns, which make siren and gunshot noises. It also built a giant barricade of bentonite slurry, 6,700 ft. long with a foundation 35 ft. deep, to help purify...

Writer-Director Randal Kleiser demonstrated in Blue Lagoon that an air of innocent wonder can disarm all parental harrumphing about a movie that is essentially wall-to-wall sex and nudity. Now he has moved his operation from the Pacific to the Greek islands. Instead of titillating his young audience with a little sanitized incest, he offers them a genial disquisition on the joys of the menage a trois. Visually, however, the formula is as before-plenty of skin displayed before Arcadian scenery. The boy (Peter Gallagher) has a male-model pout for all emotions, and his American girlfriend (Daryl...

...seems that Actor Christopher Atkins, 21 (The Blue Lagoon), has reached that difficult age: no longer a teen crush but not yet an adult lead. He does have a new flick (The Pirate Movie), and following the well-trampled path of bubble-gum idols before him, he has cut some wax before he wanes: his first record, How Can I Live Without Her, is currently No. 89 on the charts. But there was still something missing, so his handlers suggested a take-it-off takeoff of the now famous Richard Avedon portrait of Natassia Kinski, 21, with a languorous python...
