campy without being funny
28 January 2016
Prom queen Mary Lou Maloney has escaped from Hell and is killing in Hamilton High School once again. Alex Grey is an average student and unlikely to get into medical school. His best friend Shane Taylor is another idiot. He is always bullied on the football team by star Andrew Douglas. He forgets his anniversary with girlfriend Sarah Monroe. Late one night, he has a sexual encounter with Mary Lou. Mary Lou starts appearing helping him academically and athletically. He helps her bury the bodies.

This is trying to be campy. The problem is that it's not funny. When it tries to be funny and fails, the movie feels deficient. Courtney Taylor has the pin-up beauty of Mary Lou but she doesn't have the charisma of Lisa Schrage. None of the movie is actually scary. The last act in Hell doesn't have any real intensity. In fact, the people suffering in Hell are so lifeless that it makes the movie stumble crossing the finish line.
