I recently viewed Cemetery High (1988) on Tubi. The plot centers on a group of high school girls who have grown tired of scumbag men getting away with their actions. In response, they arm themselves with guns and chainsaws, turning into vigilantes and unleashing a killing spree unlike anything their town has ever witnessed.
Directed by Gorman Bechard (Galactico Gigolo), this film stars Debi Thibeault (Death Collector), Ruth Collins (Sexpot), Frank Stewart (Thrilled to Kill), and Carmine Capobianco (Psychos in Love).
Cemetery High is a horror comedy that successfully embraces its 80s roots without taking itself too seriously. It exudes the quintessential 80s aesthetic, complete with the iconic hairstyles, fashion, and a brand of humor reminiscent of films like Porky's. While the acting, dialogue, and kill sequences may not be particularly outstanding, the film compensates with its attractive cast and ample nudity. Notably, there's also a hilarious "Rock Jock" commercial that stands out as one of the movie's most redeeming aspects.
In summary, Cemetery High isn't a groundbreaking cinematic experience and is primarily suited for diehard 80s horror enthusiasts. I would give it a modest 3/10 rating and recommend it only if you approach it with the right expectations.
