<I>Return to Horror High</I> is a convoluted cheesefest that tries to be spoof and horror movie at the same time, feebly prefiguring <I>Scream</I>. A movie crew is filming a slasher picture at a high school where a series of murders actually occurred; the killings begin again--or are they simply staged for the production? The answer to this question is distinctly uninvolving, but it involves a lot of fake blood. Familiar faces include Vince Edwards and <I>Brady Bunch</I> star Maureen McCormick (a uniformed cop), plus--until he becomes the first victim--George Clooney. <I>--Robert Horton</I>
Viewer Reviews I hate to say it, but this movie is precisely what I enjoy about B-Movie horror...buckets upon buckets of blood, characters with little-to-no development (that you'd care about anyway), and willingness to not take the subject material altogether too seriously.
On top of all of that is a genuinely fascinating, though implausible, twist in the narrative. It's quite wonderful.
I would sincerely recommend this movie to anyone who enjoys horror and comedy.
