Would you want to go to this school???


"Night School," also know as "Terror Eyes." It stars Rachael Ward who was kinda big around early 80's. She would go on to star in the Burt Reynolds film "Sharkey's Machine." Here she plays a college student (looking a little older than the usual), where a killer is on the loose wearing motorcycle gear and brandishing a large silver blade.


Now, beheadings are the way to go here. Who's killing these college women? There's one scene that stands out, for me. A young college girl goes over a college teacher's (older female) place, and does the nasty! Yes, you heard it right... they get it on. This is a little ahead of its time. Then, later you find the younger girl's head in the toilet! No, I'm not making this up. This is the third horror film between 1980-1981 to have a head in a fish tank.


So, the killer seems to be stalking Rachael Ward for some unknown reason. "Night School" was shot in Boston. It was released in theaters around spring of 1981. I saw it on cable in 1983 on the Movie Channel, as I did most horror films back then. Okay, wow for a little spoiler: This is a 28 year old movie, so if you haven't seen it by now you probably won't, since it hasn't been released on DVD. I doubt this will replay again either. Alright, for the spoiler, here we go----------Don't look down any further!!!! You have been warned...

Rachael Ward turns out to be the killer at the end!!!!! The reason being, that she wanted to pass some stupid test, so she decided that by killing off her competition, it would get her the highest grade.



Now, this one doesn't get high grade. Only 1 and a half stars... Although it does have some decent nudity and a lot of blood shed. Oh, those early 80's cable days are so missed...
