Viewing Notes
Another fun Horror Movie Night film, Slaughter High is a typical 80s slasher where a group of people torture a nerdy guy in high school by getting him naked with the chance of sleeping with the most popular girl. Then they film it, and dunk him in the toilet. In fact, he\\‘s totally buttass naked and we see his junk. A weird thing for a horror movie, much less an 80\\‘s horror film. Then in another act of an April Fools Day joke gone bad, this kid, Marty ends up getting severely burned by fire and acid.
Cut to years later and the gang is back together heading to the high school for a reunion. They break into the closed school and then start getting offed by a jester masked killer one by one in pretty fun and awesome ways. One is killed by drinking a beer that causes his stomach to explode, another dies in an acid filled bathtub, one drowns in a sewage tank, and the best kill of all is a couple is banging on a wrought iron bed and the killer electrocutes them by hooking up a batter to the bed. Classic shit there.
The movie is paced a little on the slow side, but the laughs and fun is there for the cheesetastic acting, good kills and twist ending.
Another great horror movie for HMN.
