This is the one where the students torment the school teacher at her house in creepy masks, right?
There's no appeal to the DVD cover with a bunch of preppy kids in Daddy's car looking like it's from a Charles and Eddie music videoclip.
The title is bogus as well; what's so hellish about it? I think it should have been called 'Hell Students' instead.
And what the hell is the opening score supposed to convey - that we're on a merry-go-round?
What looks like the little girl with the skipping rope from the Freddy movies or just Little Girl from 'Chainsaw 3' takes a stroll down the Green River Killers driveway, and I remember this scene. She throws a bucket of slops at the abusive biker fella from 'Porky's.' (I always thought he looked like Martin Brody.)
We're then introduced to a bunch of immature twenty-somethings in biology class who all think anything they say and do is hilarious.
Apparently, we're stuck with them as leads. (If they're high school students, then I'm a senior citizen.)
I don't know what this "Bud Light" tip tap music is they've gone with.
Is that the backpacker from 'American Werewolf in London?'
A body double is used in this shower scene for the Cynthia Nixon lookalike. (That's a different body, trust me.)
Boy, what's the unusual music they've gone with? It's not a John Hughes movie.
A football game between the Vikings and the Washington Red Commanders brings the community together.
There's no 'Wanderers' intensity about it, and no Ducky Boys invade the pitch either, but the preppy twits in Daddy's car do so without impunity or yellow flags.
Do I detect John Carpenter music?
The immature four, a strange odd mix indeed, gather bags of moss water from the Green River Killers property and go on some hazing ritual to induct the biology teacher in 'Hell High's' class of '86.' She's given the Nickelodeon treatment, and they don't miss the target. SPLAT.
Petty torment, break and entry sees Cynthia Nixon terrorized like it's a 'Last House on the Left' movie. She throws a wrench in the mix and turns the tables on the home invaders by diving out a two-story window, leaving the intruders under the impression that she bought it.
Feigning death Nixon is raised from the dead, and the movie transitions into 'I Spit on Your Grave' where she starts stalking and murdering twits.
This all came about because one sensitive baddy, Dickens, was asked to collect term papers. What build-up to seek retribution! And what was with his mouth?
You can't stick a pencil through someone's temple. Bone is as hard as rock.
Everyone kills each other at the end, and the American Werewolf fella frames a star quarterback for it all by planting his jacket at the crime scene.
He howls at the end in school for some reason to close proceedings out.
This is not a movie to watch at Halloween time.
None of the actors are likeable.
I wouldn't recommend it.
I would probably go with 1981's 'Bloody Birthday' instead.
