After arriving at a high school, a man learns a group of teachers is forced to attend a weekend seminar at a co-workers' house which turns into a troublesome situation when a deranged serial killer arrives looking to seek revenge on a prank gone wrong years earlier and tries to get away alive. This was an incredibly enjoyable effort. Among the more impressive aspects here is the main setup involving the group at their main seminar meetings. The idea of getting together under the pretenses of improving their students' chances at school, including strategies to enhance their ability at scoring higher instead of actual learning and their resistance to those tactics, creates a fun setup here. The veiled commentary on the current status of public schooling, forsaking the actual teaching in favor of finding ways to get them to graduate, offers up a fantastic topical entrance point as the back-and-forth conversations offer enough to get acclimated to the characters in a fun way. As well, the film has a lot to like with the stalking scenes here. As these feature the striking use of red filters to evoke stylish giallo-like sequences, the stalking here is quite fun with ambushes in the school, at one of the teachers' house or the final attacks at the bar showing some great technical skills. The ability to be at ease with both the extended stalking and far shorter outbursts where the suddenness of the killer appearing has a great balance, keeping the pacing up in between everything while doling out stylish kills and plenty of suspense, is the best part of the film. The other positive aspect to like is the entire motivation for the killer to start their rampage. The initial prank from the post, changing the picture in the yearbook that everyone sees and laughs at, manages to serve as a worthwhile and humiliating inciting incident that's appropriately traumatic being followed up nicely by the scene in the bathroom taking the broken glass and committing suicide. What works as a simple, believable prank that would've been positive to pull off and serve as the proper overarching factor to spur her suicidal reaction but also serve as a reason to launch the actual rampage later is fine if simplistic slasher setup, giving this a lot to like overall here. There are a few minor problems here. The first problem here is the clueless rationale for going after the teachers for the prank that was committed. The far more likely targets would've been the people who put the prank together originally or the ones who let it happen, yet the rationale here to not only plan out the rampage as is but also try to sell what's going on here as the proper motivation to begin the rampage is somewhat underwhelming. An attempt at making it connect doesn't make sense with what it wants to pull off as the jumbled delivery is clunky and awkward, furthering that aspect even more. Some might find the red filter for the kills confusing, but beyond that, there isn't a whole lot wrong here. Rated Unrated/R: Graphic Violence and Language.

This movie, imo, is almost as bad as it can get. Keep in mind I think a throwback slasher like Varsity Blood is a great example of a well done throwback style slasher. Unfortunately there's not one redeeming quality I could find in this movie. The acting was absolutely dreadful, with the exception of having cast Brinke Stevens and Tamara Glynn who were underutilized anyways. It's not fun to do a completely negative review and I give a LOT of leeway to slasher movies because there's really nowhere fresh to take the genre, but a nicely done homage to the past can be a great watch. This is just a dreadful film.

Definitely has a low budget indie feel to the movie, but the violence in it was awesome!! I love these little slasher films whether they are bad or not. This one was sort of bad, but absolutely did not disappoint me at all! Excellent to see Tamara Glynn (Halloween 5) in this!

Its a slasher after all, so if youre able to filter out all the germinizing glitches on almost every corner of this octagraphic product, then go for it. I wont dwell too much over the cast, the acting or the production setup, which is visionary and idealistic enough, every effort has been dumped in small heaps in every corner, just say that its on d division cast league., sound , lightwork, and soundeffects are terrible, the hd phonecam or standard hd shoulder cam for students to use, should tell most of what filmographic frights theyve managed to screw together. More interesting is the name that flashes on the screen in the intro, at least 8 times in the production list. Let me just call him huey, dewey and lewey, and his friend uncle donald that directs the whole shalabang of a killer spree, my guess is that this is a media class high school exam product, wher the students has written the layout of the script, and occational school staff has taken the caracters at straight arm, and the music teacher has made and conducted the cheap style pornographical background score, that fits the gory killings like lovemaking with a hardingfiddle doing a slått in the background. Its so utterly tasteless. So the final conclusion must be that this maybe a good ''how to avoid glitching your film'' when diy. A little plus though must be the realfeel of the visual effects and esp. The blood coming as a result of killing teachers. Have they robbed the nearest bloodbank?, or just got the surplus for free. I know im grumpy and old, and can make a loose connection to'' the city of the living dead''(1980), and that making film is fun, but this is mostly for the highschool virtual yearbook, and not for the masses of the world to see. I wont recommend a look unless using ure harold filtermaier glasses on.tough it has its moments when ffwd'ing it ...

It's a Rip-Roaring Blood Fest Centering Around the Effects & Consequences of Bullying , that begins with the Suicide of a Young High School Student & Ends in a Complete SlaughterFest ! It takes an Outstanding Cast of Professionals to make this oddly transformative Flik flower to Fruition ; & this Sparkling Crew delivers the Goods ! The Crux of the Story Centers around a Get-To-Know-You Teacher's Dinner presided over by "Sue Steel' a long time Teacher & Head of the English Department who's beginning to Embrace the Easy Way out ; & She's played by the Remarkable Debra Lamb , an absolute Legend in the Entertainment Industry ! Original Scream Queen Brinke Stevens still Packs a Wallop as 'Kathryn' , a dutiful Teacher trying to do Her job Fairly & Equally . Magnificent Mel Heflin , who's Traveling a Quick Road to Stardom is the disgruntled 'Valerie Battles' , Cool as a Cucumber & Sweeter than Cherry Pie Kaylee Williams is the Accommodating & Attractive 'Lauren Parker' , Then there's the Relative Newcomer to Film with the Astounding Screen Presence Samantha Marie as the Slightly Stuck-Up 'Alice Meadows' , & Iconic Tamara Glynn as 'Linda' , the Understanding Teacher with some personal Issues . Roger Conners as 'Michael Perry' & Chris Jehnert as 'Ryan Billings' play a couple of Teachers who have developed a Real Bond ; David E. McMahon is the obnoxious 'James Curtis' , & Michael Tula is the Fun Loving Skirt Chaser 'Brandt Carpenter' ; & Gorgeous Julie Anne Prescott Portrays the Tatood Bartender with the Perfect Top Shelf ; & the one that Started it All ... It's a Great Retro 80's Showpiece with some Modern Twists & a Climactic Ending ! They may be Short on Teachers ; but " TEACHER SHORTAGE " Possesses just the Right Amount of Blood , Action , & Frightening Fun !

The film opens 2010 with a girl being bullied and then kills herself. Some years later teachers are being killed in the same school by a masked killer who gets around rather quickly. This is a low budget Troma-wanna-be type of film. Some of the sound had a background noise. Brinke Stevens who is top billed, PLOT SPOILER is the first to die. Not on the screen very long. The killer has a long rant against teachers which became boring. Not well acted or scripted. Guide: F-word. Implied oral. No nudity.
