Cutting Class (1989)
4/10
a perfect example why slashers died after 1985

Cutting Class, what can I say about that one. After half a hour watching nothing really happened except for one killing that isn't worth watching. Other things I saw were bikini's and underwear and of course cheerleaders. And still there is a killer prowling around. If you are into horror you will immediately know who the killer is so no suspense there. Yes, they are trying to mislead you by solving who the killer is but it is too late. By then you know that it really sucks. It's not bloody or scary even as they have put some nudity in it and first person shots of the killer. It's really a flick you watch as a teenager and to see Brad Pitt in his earlier performances. But it is also a perfect example why the slashers killed their selves. If it wasn't for Pitt the movie surely would vanish in the VHS era and would never be released on DVD, watch the sleeves, it's Pitt on it and that's all. For the teenagers around '89 there was another reason to watch this flick. Jill Schoelen. She was one of the idols around then and here she shows a bit of herself and she also was a bit of a name in the PG13 horror of that time. She's also know for Popcorn, The Bite 2 and of course the original The Stepfather were she's nude too. Admit it, with all the tools seen at the end they surely could have made a real slasher but instead they choose to make a copier as a killing subject?! This one is easy to find in bargains so don't hesitate to see a cutting crap.
