Review of Return to Horror High (1987) by Erik O — 02 Aug 2008
It does a pretty nice job of establishing itself as a Horror-Comedy; the jokes are decent, and the kills are creepy and gory. It's not perfect, by any means, but it's entertaining. My only real problem is that the story gets pretty convoluted towards the end; I've never been so confused by a Slasher Flick before, and I've certainly seen my fair share.
But I'm a sucker for the "movie within a movie" angle, so, needless to say, a great deal of my enjoyment can be credited to that. Most people watching this will only be interested in seeing George Clooney's debut; but you're going to be disappointed, because he only gets about five minutes of face-time before he is, thankfully, disposed of.
More importantly, however, Slasher Flick fans should love this movie... and isn't that all that really matters?
