Do you need to insurance boobs?
After queering up the castle in James Whale’s The Bride of Frankenstein, we got cosmic with Adam Egypt Mortimer’s outstanding imaginary friend tale Daniel Isn’t Real. Now we need something that’ll really get us hot, and the 1981 parody Student Bodies just might do the trick!
In the film, an anonymous killer known only as “the Breather” (Richard Brando) terrorizes the teenagers of Lamab High School by killing every student who indulges in sex. The long list of suspects includes the school’s psychoanalyst (Carl Jacobs), nurse (Janice E. O’Malley), principal (Joe Talarowski) and, most surprisingly, virginal student Toby (Kristen Riter), who’s always at the scene of the crime. Toby knows she’s innocent, however, and vows to catch the killer.

Episode 137 – Student Bodies (1981)
Happy Halloween/Friday the 13th/Jamie Lee Curtis’ birthday, everyone! We’re celebrating the occasion(s) with a discussion of the classic(?) 1981 horror parody Student Bodies, a movie that really gets us hot! Paperclips, eggplants and erasers, oh my!
Join us as we go through the film’s production during the 1981 Writers Guild of America strike before going into a deep dive on the stages of genre evolution. Let’s just hope the Breather gets stuck in some gum before he finds us!
Plus, mustard facials, Joe’s penchant for dick cheese and did Trace even watch the movie! Either way, it’s death before disfigurement for us!
Cross out Student Bodies!
Coming up on Wednesday: We’re returning to the world of Alfred Hitchcock with a queer reading of the Leopold & Loeb-inspired thriller Rope!
