April Fool's Day

Slaughter High

Slaughter High embodies everything one would want in a late 80's slasher film. The deaths are inventive and over the top, the killer is creepy, the location is drenched with atmosphere, the high schoolers look like they haven't set foot inside a school for about 2 decades, the fashions and hair are ridiculous, and there's a thick layer of cheese sprinkled on top. The plot might not be anything to write home about, but Slaughter High makes up for it with sheer bravado, a sense of fun, and some shockingly mean spirited death scenes. Caroline Munro will probably be the only familiar face in this for most people and she handles her flimsy role nicely and makes for a great Final Girl in the film's occasionally tense finale. If there's anything Slaughter High misses the mark on, it's the silly ending, but after doing so much right, it's hard to complain too much,

YES, the plot is hardly plausible and very thin. YES, the acting does range from average to laughable. YES, it has been done so many times before. However what we are dealing with is a film that does not shy away from these facts and pretends to be nothing more than it is. There are indeed some original death scenes and the tension does increase throughout the movie. In addition you are never more than a few minutes away from a gory killing. I urge everyone to watch this film with an unprejudiced eye and see it for what it set out to be; a scary, funny slasher flick with a theme tune second to none.

The middle was kind of boring, but beginning and end were pretty good. Nice twist in the end! What yoy can expect from 80s slasher I suppose.

Slaughter High is one of the better 80s Slasher Movies Starring the nice looking Caroline Munro (known from another 80s Horrormovie Maniac) There are similar Revenge Slasher Movies from the 80s like The Burning or Terror Train. Slaughter High has some witty kill scenes and a decent Soundtrack, and a creepy setting however the ending was a bit weird. Overall a entertaining Slasher. Recommended for Slasher and 80s Horror Fans.

A group of people are invitied to there high school reunion, but after they arrive they discover it to be a scam by an old classmate they played an almost fatal prank on. Now, he seeks to get revenge on all those that hurt him by sealing all the exits and cutting off all telephone lines. Dark salsher film with an unexceptional premise. Bringing it up a notch are a few good performances, some rather creative death scenes, plenty of excitement & scares, some humor and an original ending. Unrated; Extreme Violence, Graphic Nudity, Sexual Situations, Profanity, and Drug Use.

This slasher movie is the epitome of 80's slasher films. Before people bullied on Facebook, they did it in person. Marty was the victim of such bulling done by a certain click. During one of the pranks, Marty is disfigured by both fire and acid. After 5 years a class reunion, consisting only of the click is held at the abandoned school house. After the first person is killed, the crowd decides to stay together, but then separates to get slashed one at a time. While the slasher wears a joker's mask, it really isn't meant to be a who-dun-it. Nudity, including male nudity (poor Marty)
