Dead Man on Campus: Directed by Alan Cohn. With Tom Everett Scott, Mark-Paul Gosselaar, Poppy Montgomery, Lochlyn Munro. Two college roommates go out and party, resulting in bad grades. They learn of the clause that says, “If your roommate dies, you get an A,” and decide to find someone who is on the verge, so to speak, to move in with them.

“Iu0026#39;m an idiot. I loved this movie. Not only did I watch it MORE than once, I bought the DVD so now I have the benefit of watching this highly underrated piece of trash anytime I want. Let me do a brief description of Dead Man on Campus for those out there who donu0026#39;t know: An uptight med-student Scott (Werewolf in Paris) moves in with constantly partying Gossellar (you guessed it, Saved by the Bell) and starts to loosen up a bit. In the midst of all the all-night beer blasts and sex, the two start flunking out. They hear from a drunk, that if a roomate kills himself, then the other will be awarded a 4.0 grade-average. So starts the search for a suicidal roommate. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eNow the premise is nowhere near as funny as it thinks, but what really gives this one staying power is its assortment of characters. Everyone loves Cliff Ou0026#39;Malley and his u0026quot;I got some beers….Letu0026#39;s drink emu0026#39;!!!u0026quot; and who can ever forget the pseudo, British goth-boy Matt Noonan. His hairbrush scene is a riot and worth a rental in itself. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThis is a no-brainer movie people and itu0026#39;s exactly what you would expect from an MTV production. The only thing missing is the gratutitus nudity that was so prevalent in the slew of college party-comedies of the 80s. What the hell, you canu0026#39;t have everything right? This one has almost enough laughs to make up for it. Call the boys over, crack open some Coors and laugh your ass off.”
