I Rule the Ghoul School! Not.

Ghoul School (1990)
Director- Timothy O'Rawe
Starring- William Friedman, Scott Gordon, Paul Venier

A couple small-time crooks try to get money hidden in the basement of a school one of them once attended. They find a hidden room, push a button on the wall, and somehow release toxic gas that turns people into flesh-eating zombie-type monsters. It sounds like a Troma film, and in fact has been compared to movies like Nuke 'em High. The difference is a smaller gore budget, and less acting abilities. The movie is a good indicator of where the youth of this were were in terms of late 1980's fashion, but otherwise is almost a total loss. The band that gets hired to play for the school is rehearsing in the auditorium at one point, and the music is so off-sync that the guitarist front man (the ONLY guitarist, mind you) sets his guitar down while we still hear a solo playing!
Everyone seems to get killed in the end.
Rating: Despite a good ending, it still only gets 1/5 Bonedaddies.
