Goofs:

Continuity: Blade's girlfriend throws a cigarette at her side, while she's crawling on all fours in the air duct, to find a safe way out of the school. The same scene is repeated after a while (the cigarette's still there, it's exactly the same shot!) when she's supposed to have been crawling far from her starting point.

Features Robot Ninja (1989)

Funny,destined to be a cult classic!

This movie is a riot! It must have been directed with the idea of adding all the bad production values of a B rated picture. Favorite moments are the pool scene with the two swim coaches. The woman coach has an obviously fake blonde wig and the guy doesn't have the sound match what he's saying at one point, so it looks like the old Godzilla movies. The expressions on their faces when they see the ghouls are PRICELESS! Also the (meant to be bad) editing of the Jackie Martling scenes with Joe Franklin are a hoot. This intentional laugh at itself movie tickles you just as it's grossing you out. This is destined to be a cult classic!
