Horror High

Actors: Pat Cardi, Austin Stoker, Rosie Holotik, John Niland, Joye Hash  
Rating: 1 out of 10, The latest in my journey through 100 bad sci fi films got me a little revved up as the opening credits rolled because I recognized a number of names as NFL players from the 1970s including a fair number from the Dallas Cowboys. With the exception of Niland they were all just briefly glanced on screen, which is probably a good thing considering how bad this was. A high school nerd bullied by both faculty and students discovers a potion that grants him Mr. Hyde like powers. Bullies are soon dissolving in a vat of acid left in the middle of high school science class (huh?!) and having their heads lopped off with the old paper cutter ploy. The monster is kept in the shadows for his entire screen time which must have saved the obviously severely limited special effects budget. Totally forgettable.

MVP: Pat Cardi as the nerdy monster Vernon Potts
