That was an excellent one.

It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.

Boy, this movie is terrible. The quality, storyline, characters, you name it were so poorly done. I think they should've restarted this all over again and change the storyline so that it would make total sense.I couldn't honestly understand what the rest of the characters were saying, it's as if they were murmuring some words that were gibberish.I have nothing more to say but the worst mid 70's movie I have ever watched!I hope if they are ever gonna reboot this movie, they will do it better and easier to understand more!

Much acclaimed flick this is. It's clear who the killer is from the first moments. But it's notorious for the reason that no weapons are used to kill the victims. No guns or knifes. That makes it an original slasher. It's not gory or even bloody because it's made just before the gory effects came in with Friday the 13th (1980). It's even not scary like Halloween (1978) but it's worth a look. Just look for a few names to see, Andrew Stevens (Mark) maybe the most famous one but there's also Derrel Maury (David) and of course Kimberley Beck (Theresa) who goes full frontal here and moved further to Friday The 13th The Final Chapter (1984). But not only the thespians became famous in their era, there's also Rene Daalder, the Dutch director who was asked by Russ Meyer to direct this flick, together they made the never-completed collaboration with The Sex Pistols on Who Killed Bambi? Daalder also made video clips afterwards and was consultant and designer for FX for Robocop 2 (1990) and The Lawnmower Man (1992) amongst others. With it's grainy look it do adds something toward this early slasher. It do has a bit of gratuitous nudity when a trio is having sex in a tent. Bring back the time when save sex was out of the question. No adults in this flick are shown, also something weird and it do has political undertones. Almost no blood, maybe it was a love story after all....Having no US release up to this writing it is available in the UK and Germany on the X-rated label still 666 copies were made. A cult classic with a lot of following.Gore 0,5/5 Nudity 2/5 Effects 1/5 Story 2,5/5 Comedy 0/5

The plot = A new student David starting at school quickly becomes a victim of nasty bullying by four of the jocks, after a near fatal accident David turns the tables and kills off the bully's through a series of violent accidents, but things don't change and the former victims quickly become the new bully's so David decides to take drastic action.What sets "Massacre At Central High" apart from other slashers, is the theme of revenge against the school theme and the methods of dispatch, rather than the usual knife or axe, we get nasty fatal accidents, which is rather a fresh idea and still holds up by todays standards. Ultimately though, while containing several murders and a near double gang-rape scene, Massacre At Central High is not a slasher film. Most of the deaths consist of off-screen moments of impact or fireball explosions. There's a minimalist amount of blood thrown around and while the near gang-rape scene is a little out of place due to its sexual violence, it's never shown graphically. But the film is still quite horrific and shocking.I also liked the fact that the gorgeous Kimberley Beck is in this movie, I loved her turn in "Friday The 13th pt 4" and I equally love her in this, she brings true beauty and elegance in the role, as the only likable character in this movie.Of course this movie does have it's bad points, like the fact that none of the cast (except for Kimberley Beck) are even remotely likable and makes it hard to root for anyone, and the pacing is off at times and this movie does tend to drag on a bit.All in all, not perfect but still a hidden gem of a movie.

As a fan these kind of films I sat down to give it view. The premise reminded of the 80's movie Heathers. 4 popular kids, popular only by name who set the tone of the school but for the most part are not well liked. Well this is 4 guys, Heathers is 4 girls. New kid shows up and is befriended into this click, Winnona Ryder has the same thing happen. Both movies, they new kid in school isn't real fond of the so called popular kids are how they treat people. Anyways, Heathers splits the killer up into two characters where Massacre roles them into one. Some of the acting kinda lame and some really average writing. I did like this movie but Heathers should be smacked for ripping this movie off almost to the every end. The killer dies blowing himself up outside the high school. Massacre at Central High should come out on DVD I would buy it. Enjoyed the movie but at the same time it now has me looking at Heathers in a less than original light.
