3.0 out of 5 stars Standard horror with a rumored real-life tragic footnote, September 23, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Slaughter High [VHS] (VHS Tape)

There's nothing really new here except for a rather eye-opening sequence where the nerd-who-will-become-the-slasher is soundly humiliated in front of "the gang"--complete with extended and rather graphic male nudity. Supposedly, the actor who played the nerd, Simon Scuddamore, committed suicide shortly after its release, which makes watching this scene a faintly queasy experience.

I saw this movie almost ten years ago with my brother on one of our weekly horror movie nights. This one always stuck out in my mind. I loved it so much because it didn't really take it self so seriously. Sure, the acting is stilted, and their accents make them sound like deaf people learning to speak! The movie's about a nerd in high school who gets pranked by the popular kids and the prank turns deadly. Or so they think. Turns out that the nerd is alive and ready for revenge (years later, though!). My favorite part of the movie is when the popular kids are reuniting at the abandoned school, and this big motorcycling oaf from the gang comes roaring in on his bike and falls off (even though he clearly is safely getting off the bike and lands on the grass), and the camera closes in on him as he says "Oh, man, that-bike-has-got-to-go". And he says it so slowly and pauses after each word. I used to tell my friends about that scene, and they never believed me that the actor said it that way. But once they saw it, they knew my impression was dead on. All the actors smoke a cigarette in the movie, and smoke them like they're supposed to be smoking pot, which is wierd. Was it supposed to be pot? I don't know. All of the deaths in this movie are hilarious, one funnier after the other. I wont tell you about them because they are to funny for me to spoil them for you. And make sure to keep an eye out for the stereotypical black janitor. Also look out for the great soundtrack of one intsrumental tune over and over, and a rock song with some crazy singer saying,"April Fools, HA HA HA HA"!!! That is the cherry on the top of this garbage heap. This movie is so worth renting, and or buying. Enjoy!!

4.0 out of 5 stars The Best of the Worst !, October 5, 2007

...or should I say the best AND the worst? Oh horror fans what a treat "Slaughter High" is to any child of the 80's. When I was 7-8 years old this one scared the hell out of me. I'm a horror film collector and the core reason for being a collector is to take a stroll down memory lane and capture some of my childhood. This great and goofy flick does just that. Slaughter High has it all! Half decent to horrible acting, some excellent atmosphere to no atmosphere at all, some damn good kills as well as some truly lame ones, a somewhat creepy masked killer and we can't forget that brilliant 8o's synth/keyboard score. This flick truly is the mixed bag of mixed bags and I love it! All kidding aside "Slaughter High" really does have a creepy backbone to it. Although it has some truly hilarious bad moments it also has spurts of brilliance throughout and that nerd getting back at the cool kids twist seems to really hit home these days. I really hope this one goes back into print and gets a dvd release sometime soon. This 80's gem desrves it!
