Some films should just never be released. In fact, some films should never be made. You know, come to think of it, some films shouldn't even be thought up!
Dead Man On Campus is a good example of all-of-the-above. This completely inept, totally ill-conceived, would-be comedy attempts to takes on college life (ala Animal House) but never reaches the energy or comical level of the John Landis classic.
In this forgettable film, two roommates are in danger of failing, due to excessive partying. They are led to believe, (however implausibly), that if a fellow roommate kills himself, theyĆll get A's. Thus the search for the most psychotic roommate begins.
I think I laughed twice in this wrong little film. In fact, I wanted to take my own life by the time it was over. Although, Dead Man On Campus wasn't as bad as MTV's last feature film, the ludicrous Joe's Apartment, it''s still a film that never should have been made.
