About Student Bodies
This zany send-up of teen slasher flicks features a maniacal psycho known as the Breather, who stalks –and murders– promiscuous students at a suburban high school. The fanatical killer's unusual weapons include paper clips, blackboard erasers and eggplants.
Directed by Mickey Rose, Michael Ritchie, Student Bodies leans on a strong ensemble — Kristen Riter, Matthew Goldsby, Joe Flood — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 1981.
