The audience of New Hollywood film

By the early 1960s, an estimated 80 percent of the film-going population was between the ages of 16 and 25. At first, the major studios largely ignored this audience, leaving it the hands of smaller studios like American International Pictures, which produced a string of cheaply made horror movies, beach blanket movies like Bikini Beach (1964) and How to Stuff a Wild Bikini (1965) and motorcycle gang pictures like The Wild Angels (1966).
