I just changed my signature to add a photo and line from Jawbreaker starring Rose McGowan and Rebecca Gayheart. It's one of my favorite 'high school movies' but my all-time favorite is Mean Girls. Dark comedies like these helped me gain a little perspective on my wasted high school years.

What are some of your favorite movies in this vein and do any have a similar effect on you?

I probably should have also added Ferris Bueller's Day Off.

I loved "Heathers", but you left out "Porky's", "Dangerous Minds", & the classics "To Sir With Love" & "Blackboard Jungle".

Ohh. And that one with Sarah Michelle Gellar - Cruel Intentions. Another goodie. Forget the sequels though. lol

Oh, and Dangerous Minds always reminds me of High School High with Jon Lovitz and Tia Carrere! :P

"High School High" with John Lovitz and Tia Carrere.
"Lean on Me" with Morgan Freeman playing Joe Clark.

If either of those was on I would have to flip a coin to decide which to watch.

No, it had Matt Dillon in it. :P

Any movie which has the high school being blown up at the end is worth watching to me.

Oh yeah , how about Rock n Roll High School Forever w/ Corey Feldman ? :shrug: Mojo Nixon was in it and they blew up the school.

Savage Streets is more of a gang/ revenge film but a good deal of the action takes place inside high school. Very violent with over the top performances from the villains and anytime Linda Blair bares his boobs, it's always a plus.

*The Breakfast Club is atleast on the list. That definitely gets my vote and is an excellent movie all-around.

*Dazed & Confused

*American Pie

I'd say Remember the Titans, but I'd consider it a sports movie, more than what a high school movie would be.

I'd say Animal House also, but that's a college movie, not high-school. And then I'd have to add Old School.

Grease is the movie I love to hate - with the white hot intensity of a thousand suns. But then, I hate the 50's, so maybe mine isn't the best opinion.
