Plot hole: In the opening scene, the bullies all go into the girls' toilets with loads of camera equipment, including high tech ones used for proper films and boom mics. This equipment is way too expensive (even more so in the 80s when the film is set) for any high school kid to have.
Slaughter High (1986)
Plot summary
Directed by: George Dugdale, Mark Ezra, Peter Mackenzie Litten
Starring: Caroline Munro, Carmine Iannaccone, Donna Yeager, Simon Scuddamore
Genres: Horror
The rotten, popular kids punk high-school geek Marty (Simon Scuddamore, who, as far as anyone knows, never worked in movies before or since), when Carol (Caroline Munro) gets him into a shower in the girls' locker room, and makes him think she's going to do the nasty with him. It's all a set-up, with video cameras and Marty's privates exposed for everyone to see, and Marty's head getting jammed down a toilet (and, in some ways, it's all rather reminiscent of the opening scene of Carrie)...
But the mean kids don't stop there: They give Marty a joint, and in a chemistry-lab mishap involving nitric acid, he catches fire. But, of course, Marty isn't dead — just really badly scarred — and, as far as the mean kids know, he's been committed to a hospital somewhere.
SPOILED IT FOR YA!
Question: The bullies think there is a real high school reunion going on. Yet having sat outside the boarded up and abandoned school for 3 hours, they do not seem in the least surprised and begin to doubt a reunion is taking place. They are not suspicious even when they have to break a window to get in to the school.Surely they would be suspicious by then and not go in?
