"Why do movies with high schools always have to show someone being late for class?" I'd guess it's because you can film a cheap establishing shot, using a location on its off day, with no need for extras. 😁

That really makes perfect sense.

They can establish the school with a minimum of extras if the lead is always late. It also informs the audience that our hero is a maverick scoff-law cool guy. Also, This guy has the coooooolest room.

The thought of a monster in the toilet had never occurred to my child-brain. And then a cassette cover informed it that that was a possibility and I was afraid of toilets for a few years. I'd throw a piece of toilet paper or two in as a peace offering before using the toilet. My adult brain laughs at the logic: oh yes, two pieces of toilet paper will surely satiate a butt-eating beast.

I think some viewers thought with Shannon Tweed this flickwas going to be a whole different type of flick.

They way this was reviewed in this video made me feel like it was not a suspense-thriller but a comedy

I had the pleasure of meeting Mr Gould when I took a drama class at ASU in the 90s, he was great. At one point he was answering questions about his work, and while most of the other students wanted to know about The Long Goodbye n such, I couldn't help but ask him about this movie, in particular - why? He got a good laugh out of that.

4:53 I think I heard LGR screaming in the distances.

You knew the sound was from the ATARI version. Either you're my age, or we've reached peak nerd. Either way, rad.

The Clarrisa Explains It All sound. Brilliant.

I’ve always LOVED this movie! I recently talked about on my podcast, Dark Notes. Thanks for covering it!

A little known scifi thriller that i thought was great was Last Lives (1997). Starring: C. Thomas Howell, Billy Wirth, Judge Reinhold and Jennifer Rubin. You should check it out. Definitely underrated!

Okay I'll check it out.

I had 2 separate teachers in my high school, about 5 years apart, who put poison in candy and left it in the teachers lounge for the rest of the teachers.

Would have been bigger if it came out during or after the crazy satanic panic era. They had some well known character actors like Elliot Gould was an A lister in the sixties and seventies. Allen Garfield , Richard Rondtree and Michael J Pollard alone have hundreds of credits. Definitely could have been much bigger if it was released at the right time

You make all these films almost watchable. I believe it has something to do with you noticing simple things that are easy to miss. Like LEAVING THE FREAKING LENS CAP ON! Was the watermelon frozen? 17 victims and they get caught by a Scooby gang reject, yeah ok. Chuck Conners would have been a much better choice.
