School Spirit - Good Bad Flicks

[@ralaun2000]

Larry Linville came to our college to speak in the late eighties and I was in charge of videotaping his lecture. He talked about the various shows and movies he’d been in, and he mentioned “a horrible teen sex comedy that was no one saw.” I knew it from the video store at the front of the theater I worked at on the weekends, so when I was taking the mic off him, I said “I bet I can make you cringe: School Spirit!” His face dropped, and he said “Ugh, don’t tell me that you SAW it!” I said I did, because people were always renting it from the video store I worked at, and he said “At least I can count on residuals from it, I guess.” He also thanked me for not mentioning its name during his lecture!

[@bostonrailfan2427]

congrats on rubbing elbows with celebrities! that’s awesome, especially as it sounded like he was truly glad that you didn’t humiliate him for being part of the movie

[@flashrobbie]

he deserved better than this but that's the nature of acting and needing to eat

[@GoodBadFlicks]

Thats really funny. At least he seems to have a sense of humor about it. :)

[@BarryHart-xo1oy]

That’s funny and touching.

[@Steve_P_B]

You could have spoken about M*A*S*H

[@docsamson198]

My local video store made a killing renting VHS’s like this. The owner probably owns an island now. Thanks, Cecil. You da man!

[@andrwarrior]

the only guarantees of life are death, taxes, and sex sells

[@bostonrailfan2427]

if he was smart enough to sell before DVD rentals tanked…

[@GoodBadFlicks]

Thanks!

[@casinodelonge]

As students, we rented Captain Lust and his Pirate Women 3 times a week for a year! We had song sheets and everything. One day, we went to rent it and it was gone, someone had stolen it and it wasnt us. That was 37 years ago and I still mourn the loss of that film, RIP Captain, RIP

[@SuperTiaanBro]

“Geezer, let’s dance” may just be the best line in cinema history.

[@GoodBadFlicks]

Made me laugh so much I had to leave it in

[@agnosticbeliever138]

This movie is 80s to the core. Yes the random party breaking out scene and yes bras weren't cool and losing your viginity was all that mattered. Those were the days.

[@GoodBadFlicks]

It was a magical time

[@BarryHart-xo1oy]

You can say that again.

[@thegothravager]

"Avenge Meeeee!!" I almost spit out my tea 😂

[@GoodBadFlicks]

I'm so happy that got a laugh. It made me chuckle when I did it. Its so dumb but funny.

[@RavenHouseMystery]

Great job on the review, Cecil. As someone who was going to college when this film was made, I can say that students in fictional colleges were having a lot more fun than I was and they never seemed to have to go to class.

[@GoodBadFlicks]

Thanks!

[@EyeInTheSky982]

Judy: "He slimed me." 😏😏😏 Sorry sorry, bad ectoplasm joke. 🤣🤣🤣

[@GoodBadFlicks]

Had to be done

[@LOWBORN-the-LOATHSOME]

A wholesome 80's comedy about necrophilia 🥰🥰🥰bonus points for having ghosts that aren't as transparent as those shirts the girls were wearing!

[@EvaFull]

Core Late Night Cinemax Movie Memory Watch Unlocked. I remember catching this at some point in the mid to late ‘90’s one night during some marathon they were running that night.

[@GoodBadFlicks]

USA Up all night had this on standby

[@TheChronozoan]

When I was a kid, i recall being scaroused for the first time in my life seeing this cover on the shelf lol. Never actually got to..uh.. experience it until now. Thanks for the vid!

[@grapeshot]

Yes parties just breaking out seemed to take place a lot in the 1980s. Much like in the early part of the 21st century in high school people broke out in spontaneous dance routines.

[@GoodBadFlicks]

Sometimes breakdancing, depending on the location

[@JoeDredd2012]

This looks like a film that would air on USA UP ALL NIGHT from way back in the day. Awesome job on the video Cecil 👍👍

[@GoodBadFlicks]

Thanks! Yes, this was on USA Up all night quite often

[@korbell1089]

It wasn't that bras hadn't been invented yet, it's the fact that they burned them all in the '60s!😁

[@travisshallenberger9486]

😆😆😆

[@GoodBadFlicks]

Good point!

[@AlcesteGray]

@@GoodBadFlicks Usually two points.

[@reignfire85]

Ah, the 1980s, where you couldn't leave your home without running into a random band looking to play a house party gig.

[@GoodBadFlicks]

and they wouldn't be half bad either!

[@GenXrecluse]

So in this movie when you die, you don't really die, you just gain the ability to become invisible.

[@GoodBadFlicks]

Yup

[@kingleech16]

I’m really hoping that in the coming centuries some plucky college student will write a detailed and heartfelt explanation of this movie’s deep themes, socio-political importance, and relevance to the modern era.

[@400KrispyKremes]

"Some ghosts should be busted"...

[@919ENTERTAINMENTLLC]

Bustin makes me feel goo😅

[@OlDirtyGamer-]

I can always count on you resurrecting movies i haven’t seen or thought of in 30 years. Thanks Cecil 😂

[@GoodBadFlicks]

You are very welcome!

[@AubreyTheKing]

Another hidden 80s gem! It's not perfect, but stupid 80s fun! School Spirit is one of those movies were you can just turn your brain off and enjoy the film. Don't think about anything lol just watch it and laugh! You can laugh at the movie or with it, it doesn't matter. As long as you're laughing and having fun, the movie did it's job. I'm really soft when it comes to 80 films! That's just me. Worth a watch! Great video, man! Thanks for reviewing this one!

[@GoodBadFlicks]

Thanks for watching!

[@JenMistress]

I remember dad had this movie on VHS. Was one they didn't let me watch right away. When I did finally see it when I got older, I thought best way to describe it is cheesy fun. Yeah, it is very cheesy, but a fun movie to watch too. Anyways, thank you for this, did enjoy it.

[@GoodBadFlicks]

Thanks for watching!

[@nathan_tasker]

Yet another 80s gem. Thank you for sharing this with us, Cecil. You’re truly awesome.

[@tommygrice3809]

I always saw the VHS in my local video store but it was never available to rent. Someone at my store LOVED this movie!

[@johnacord6224]

Looks like a lot of 80s movies 😊, I miss those days. They all flew by , and I didn't even know it.

[@GoodBadFlicks]

"don't know what you got, til its gone...."

[@WookieeMonster1]

Comment, comment, comment. Enthusiastic comment. Comment about how much I love this channel. And, as someone already pointed out, those were P-Nuttles in the vending machine. One of my all-time favorites.

[@GoodBadFlicks]

Thank you!

[@dreamersdisease2481]

I love your sense of humor in these good bad flicks. You've also introduced me to so many movies I would have never seen otherwise. And all those awesomely good bad Italian films

[@brandonpage7087]

Definitely one of those kinds of '80s flicks that could never be made nowadays! Those kinds are my faves!!

[@GoodBadFlicks]

We don't get these anymore sadly

[@TheStrykerProject]

How did I miss *this* one?! Man, I love this channel! Between the movie clips and Cecil's narration, the LOLs never stopped!

[@GoodBadFlicks]

Thanks!

[@Joshnorm]

Man, I wish thumbnails were nearly as good as VHS boxes.

God I miss those programming blocks.

[@EricBinford]

It took me years to find this film. I don't remember the 1st time I saw it, but it was aweekend party staple. Well, this and Night Patrol.

[@GoodBadFlicks]

Night Patrol was great!

[@guyvizard549]

You can't get more 80's than Gleaming Spires. New Wave to the core. "Are You Ready For The Sex Girls" is one of the best music videos ever made. Not coincidentally, I've seen Grimshaw's pool in other sex comedies and Wynorski movies. His house looks familiar, too... I think it was used in "18 Again" - George Burns switcheroo comedy - how do I remember this stuff, but still forget birthdays?

[@chriscripplercruz1833]

Lucky Pierre lol the way you said that had me rolling

[@GoodBadFlicks]

[@Grimaldi-ow6mx]

37 Naked breasts in the movie? Miscount or Mastectomy? Eh. Whatever. Great video as always Cecil. Keep 'em coming.

[@leonardspivey7590]

Sideboob

[@Steve_P_B]

Or maybe only half her chest is visible in the shot, either cropped out by the edge of the screen or sideboob

[@Grimaldi-ow6mx]

@@Steve_P_B If we go down that rabbit hole, then we have to revamp the entire point system. Is half a boob only worth 1/2? Side boob 1/3? That way lies madness and eye strain. I just think counting boobs in movies is a silly endeavor, especially for a respectable film critic, so I commented on it out of amusement and to appease the YT algorithm. Cheers.

[@Steve_P_B]

@@Grimaldi-ow6mx not half a boob, half the chest where one boob is seen and one not seen because it's cut off by the edge of the screen

4:22 I did some digging, Cecil. And these are not candy bars (I thought so as well), these are basically a bag of nuts that come in a variety of flavors, and shockingly enough, they're still around.

A few people in the comments told me they are toffee covered peanuts and that sounds delightful.

Thank you for sticking up for us bass players. We are people too and hate being misrepresented in the entertainment industry.

[@Belgand]

I was leaving the house with my bass in a gig bag once and a neighbor asked if I played guitar. I replied that it was a bass. He responded, "Oh, I'm so sorry. That's like calling a New Zealander Australian!"

[@savedbythebelldeepdives]

@@Belgand Then again, maybe that was his way of implying that you could get a girl. But once the bass is out, it's to the side of the stage where no girls are wont to look...
