Zombie High

This film is according to me not only about zombies it is actually made by them. Unbelievbly stupid, boring, sick movie, made by and directed by zombies.

Virginia madsen was 26 when this abomination was made and sherilyn fenn was 22 both way too old for prep school and should have graduated college by that age ... i think the producer missed the boat by not showing t&a of the well built female stars .. it might have become a cult classic

This movie isn't bad for an 80's "school-based" horror film, but it's name is misleading. It has nothing to do with voodoo zombies, or undead zombies, and although it has a single scene which delivers something similar to those types of zombie flicks, it's just not enough for the hardcore undead enthusiast. The "High" part of the name is misleading too. It certainly seems more like a College to me. That's why it scores so low on the star meter.. Most folks that are buying it now, are expecting a high-school invaded by undead folks, even the movie description doesn't really dispell this notion. Why would folks choose such a misleading name? This should have been called "tranced college" or something, not "Zombie High" In any event, if you're looking for undead folks, this is NOT the movie for you. However, if you like cheesy 80's teenage school rebellion films (complete with references to preppies, but little, or no drugs/alcohol) mixed with horror, this one is DEFINATELY for you.

Zombie High (1987) is a movie I recently watched on Shudder after seeing it highlight in Into the Darkness. The storyline focuses on a woman off to college when she discovers her university has a checkered past. When she starts falling for one of her college professors she discovers the faculty may have something to do with the treacherous history. This movie is directed by Ron Link as his only major motion picture and stars Virginia Madsen (Candyman), Richard Cox (Cruising) and James Wilder (3 Holes and a Smoking Gun). This movie was such a disappointment, especially if you want to see a zombie picture. The focus was much more about the cult. There are a couple good scenes like the "sieze the day" classroom sequence, the professor's "pin board" and the fight in the library when the guy punches the professor then immediately says, "Sorry, I'm immature;" outside of that, not much to see here. I'd score this a 4/10.

I can live with the fact that this isn't actually a zombie movie, the bigger problem is it's barely even a horror movie. You have to sit through 45 minutes of a boring 'teen' drama, with some of the worst dialogue ever put to film, before anything even remotely 'horrific' happens. Just because Virginia Madsen is the movie doesn't mean it's any good

A very exclusive school is lobotomising (what is it about lobotomies in my choice of films for this year's 31 Days of Halloween?!) it's students so that they become the kind of upstanding captains of industry that makes society great. This is the High School version of The Stepford Wives. Played more for comedy than horror, this film isn't as irritating as many other horror-comedies. Great characters, especially the unconventional supporting players and nice art direction help proceedings pass very well indeed. The idea of the school being a kind of sausage factory to make capitalist highflyers out of isn't really explored enough but who cares as this is a late 80's horror comedy yarn after all. Notable for it's cast which includes Virginia Madsen, Sherilyn 'Laura Palmer' Fenn and Richard 'Cruising' Cox all of whom should be known to cult film/TV fans.
