It's the 1980's and a group of typical horror movie high school kids are getting together to hold a séance in a haunted house. Naturally, people start dying preposterously bloody deaths, girls are getting naked for no apparent reason and people walk into pitch black rooms and say things like "Is someone in here?" Will any of these poor, hapless kids survive? Or will their bodies fill the house with blood and...well, you know!

Good concept, poorly executed.

I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible

I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

After seeing Christina DeRosa in Run! Bitch! Run!, I just had to see more. This was her first film with a credited role, and I would expect it be on the same level.Now, this is a B movie, low budget horror movie that pokes fun of other slasher flicks. Don't expect great acting, fabulous sets, or anything but blood, zombies, and gratuitous nudity, and you won't be disappointed.Nothing special.Mindless entertainment.Easily forgettable.

... had it been funny, sexy, and not taken itself too seriously. The acting talent is pretty much the same, though the audio and visual FX are better too, which is surprising given that this appears to be on an even lower budget.A horror/teen/college film. Young people finding new ways to party in an abandoned house. Combine stories of a killer and ghosts with a wedgie board and some nerds trying to crash the party.Unlike paranormal activity, it doesn't take itself seriously so it works. It's also far sexier. Otherwise, it's very similar, taking place almost entirely in a house set in the 1980s.

Microbudget, tongue-in-cheek, horror homage to the 80's slasher/demon possession sub-genres has a group of friends messing around with a Ouija board inside the house of a notorious killer who slaughtered his entire family before committing suicide. They conjure his dark spirit which inhabits various individuals in an endless spree of violence, certain characters dying in the exact same method as the family members did. Two geeky horror fans have created plastic amulets which actually work at warding off spirits which will, at the very least, give those who are still alive, a fighting chance.Shot on video often with color drained, this film looks like a no-budget operation. Three people, and one major financier, put this flick together, shooting in a singular location on Long Beach, California. Once named "Blood & Guts", a film director Jeff Smith, Writer Curtis Andersen, and producer Sara Parrell all sought funding for, before a pal, Wayne Watson(..playing an intruding police officer at the very end)forked over the much needed dough, "Stupid Teenagers Must Die" is really a goofy slasher outing with 80's references galore and "costumes" representing wardrobe worn by many influenced from Michael Jackson and Madonna. While the cast give it their all, each inheriting a specific stereotype(..although the token black character, who mostly died in 80's slashers, portrayed by Jovan Meredith, is the heroic leader), the movie has a hard time escaping the shortcomings of a budget stretched very thin. The gore isn't really that effective, with most death sequences splattering syrupy blood all over the place, with characters often entering rooms with victims already massacred, their intestines visible(..an "intestine gag" has one of the "theatrical nerds" walking in on a crime scene where guts are hanging like chandeliers). Constant profanity, attractive women baring their impressive chests, and a lighthearted approach perhaps will work for the affectionate slasher fans who embrace the genre-s excesses. The use of video for this film and merely acceptable sound display the limitations the crew faced. A forgiving audience might look over such things, but most will look elsewhere for their slasher entertainment.

Loved this movie! Kicking it old school! Love the idea. Love the script. Love the characters. I really really really loved the Geeks! I was excited to see the silly slapstick horror flicks still being honored. This was right up with my favs such as Saturday the 14th and Pandemonium. If you are a big fan of scary AND silly then this is your movie! Only taken off one star because I would love to have had better sound. Not bad sound but would have liked to have more. Great blood splatters. Great murder weapons. Great costumes! I really love the nod to the great 80's teenager stereotype ala breakfast club. And I can appreciate the non-CGI suspense. Really good camera action and light suspense instead of cutting to CGI. I would rather have good fake that really fake fake.Kisses to the cast and makers! oh, loved the "making-of" too!
