An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

This uproariously atrocious piece of cheerfully cheap'n'chintzy low-budget horror splatter schlock has to be one of the funniest things I've had the pleasure to watch in quite some time. Granted, most of the humor is strictly of the unintentional kind, but it's still often sidesplitting just the same. A toxic chemical gets into the water supply at a New Jersey high school. A bunch of folks are transformed into fanged, growling, blue-skinned flesh-eating zombies who go on the rampage. Trapped inside the school with the ghouls are two irritating horror movie fanboy geeks and a severely talent-challenged wailing, roaring, head-banging heavy metal hair band. Boy, does this delightfully dreadful doozy possess all the right-so-utterly-wrong-they're-paradoxically-right schlock flick stuff to measure up as a real four-star gut-busting stinker: sloppy direction, a crude wafer-thin script, obnoxious foul-mouthed dialogue (the ridiculously excessive overuse of the almighty "f" bomb is downright mind-numbing), terrible acting, a tacky hum'n'shiver synthesizer score, cruddy make-up f/x, a hopelessly dated groovy-bumping rock soundtrack, laughably hokey rinky-dink over-the-top gross-out gore, and a horrendous abrupt ending. Poor Richard Bright (Al Neri in the "Godfather" features!) pops up as the jerky principal. Befuddled talk show host Joe Franklin and annoying comedian Jackie "the Joke Man" Martling briefly appear as themselves in an especially awful drawn-out sequence (Martling tells Franklin some of the worst, most groan-inducing and painfully unfunny jokes you never want to hear). Favorite line: "This is one very *beep*ed-up nightmare." Filmed in Wayne, New Jersey, where stuff like this happens all the time. A shamefully unsung should-be camp crap classic.

So I'm checking out this movie I received recently called GHOUL SCHOOL. Originally it was filmed in 1990, sad thing is…it shows!! The story starts out with a couple of school punks searching for a hidden treasure, and mistakenly unleash a chemical into the school's water supply. A chemical that causes everyone it comes into contact with to become flesh-eating ghouls. Actually it just turns them this blue. Now it's up to a couple of geeks and a really crappy metal band to escape the mayhem before the students consume everyone in sight! As stated prior, GHOUL SCHOOL plays like a cross between Class of Nuke Em High and Saved By the Bell. Though it's really not fair to compare it to Class… The story itself was a really good idea, and could be a cool movie, given that the effort put forth were better. Watching the extras and hearing the commentary from director Timothy O Rawe, even he wishes he could have redone it. They even try to bank off of Howard Sterns' sidekick Jackie the Joke Man. His scene really has no bearing at all to the film. All he does is set and tell these dumb ass jokes. The effects of the ghouls were weak and had no heart at all. All they do is paint them blue. That's it..Bottom line is this was really a waste of my time and was beyond cheesy. although I'd really like to see him redo this with his assets today.www.unspeakablemag.com

Don't bother. I'm a self-made authority on "good" B-movies, and this ain't one of them. It might have been alright were it not so self-conscious in its clearly purposeful attempts at badness. In other words, if the stuff in this straight-to-video yawner were unintentional (as in "Troll 2," for example), it might be worth a look. But, since it's not, neither is this movie.

This movie is a riot! It must have been directed with the idea of adding all the bad production values of a B rated picture. Favorite moments are the pool scene with the two swim coaches. The woman coach has an obviously fake blonde wig and the guy doesn't have the sound match what he's saying at one point, so it looks like the old Godzilla movies. The expressions on their faces when they see the ghouls are PRICELESS! Also the (meant to be bad) editing of the Jackie Martling scenes with Joe Franklin are a hoot. This intentional laugh at itself movie tickles you just as it's grossing you out. This is destined to be a cult classic!
