Pacific Banana is a 1981 Australian sex comedy film which reunites the star and writer of Alvin Purple.

Production

John Lamond had been impressed with the script for Alvin Purple (1973) and approached its original writer, Alan Hopgood with the idea of making a comedy about a broken down airline in the style of the Carry On films. Hopgood thought it was a good idea which could have led to a long-running series of comedies set in exotic locations around the world, with titles like Tokyo Banana and Guyana Banana.

The film was funded by the South Australian Film Corporation. According to Lamond, this led to the film being toned down when it should have been more like Alvin Purple.

The movie was shot immediately before Nightmares (1980), also from Lamond, and edited at the same time. Filming took place at Odeon Theatre in Norwood, South Australia, Norwood Studios, Adelaide, and Tahiti. Lamond later said he wished the island scenes had been shot in Queensland "because when you go overseas with a low budget, people want to stay in nice places and you can see the money going out the door.

Deborah Gray and Luan Peters wrote a theme song for fun during the shoot and Lamond liked it so much he decided to use it in the film.
