Hot Dog... The Movie
The film stars Patrick Houser as Harkin Banks, a young and ambitious freestyle skier from Idaho who is determined to prove himself in a freestyle skiing competition at Squaw Valley. Along the way he teams with a pack of fun-loving incorrigibles who called themselves the "Rat Pack" (whose leader, Dan O'Callahan is played by David Naughton), picks up an Austrian nemesis named Rudi (John Patrick Reger), and enters a love triangle with a pair of blondes, a young woman named Sunny (Tracy N. Smith) and the more mature Sylvia Fonda (played by 1982 Playboy Playmate of the Year Shannon Tweed in just her second major film role). The movie ends with an extended race scene, all of the characters take part in a "Chinese Downhill" race to determine the real champion of the competition. Hoping to prove his skill at freestyle skiing, Idaho farm boy Harkin (Patrick Houser) heads to a competition at California's Squaw Valley ski resort, offering a ride to hitchhiking musician Sunny (Tracy N. Smith) on the way. Harkin's main rival in the contest is Rudi (John Patrick Reger), an arrogant Austrian. With guidance from former professional skier Dan (David Naughton), Harkin sets out to win the prize while being pursued by the gorgeous Sylvia (Shannon Tweed), making Sunny jealous.
