Sally the Zombie Cheerleader has a new program all geared up for her Fleshie friends ... er, fiends. It's called A Ghoul's Guide to Horror, in which our beloved host details an old, horror favorite, granting about ten minutes of scholarly details on its history, abetted by a dandy, new, Sally theme song.
The opening class covers Larry N. Stouffer/J.D. Feigleson's 1973, persecuted-youth effort, Horror High (aka Twisted Brain/Kiss the Teacher ... Goodbye!), starring Pat Cardi of Let's Kill Uncle and Battle for the Planet of the Apes, as the beleaguered Vernon Potts, who's teamed with (and investigated by) the distinguished Austin Stoker of Abby, Time Walker, 3 From Hell and the original Assault on Precinct 13. Stoker was also Cardi's costar (and one of the leads) in the aforementioned, Apes chapter.
Sally does a super job outlining the history of this "I Was a Teenage Jekyll/Hyde" experiment (in particular, granting an interesting rundown of its old-school, transformation effects), enough so that the even the movie's most ardent fans will come away enlightened, but to get to that contented spot, one must first join Sally's seminar, which is scheduled at
