Pre-viewed for quality and it played great, the cassette is nice and clean with the spine label and factory security sticker on the right endcap intact, assuring you of first generation quality. The box is still glossy with a liner lift spot on the upper left (see photo) and a little shelf wear around the edges.

Extremely rare and Out Of Print (OOP) and never produced domestically on dvd. Be cautious of imports being offered. Not to be confused with the made-for-TV vampire movie released the same year. 

Scott Grimes (of the 'Critters' movies) is Archie, a carrot-top nerd who is forced to spend his spare time working for his tyrannical undertaker uncle (John Astin). He is frequently bullied by a group of preppies that call him things like "little corpse-F-r". Unusually the hazing is given an explicitly social aspect in the distinction between the put-upon heroes, who have to work blue-collar jobs to get the money for college tuition if they are to escape the dead-end small town, and the snobbish villains, who breeze around destructively in sports cars, secure that their parents' money will buy them a comfortable future.

When Archie and his uncle prepare a corpse and drain the blood, its like watching a mondo movie. After a long build-up some of the hateful school jocks die in a car crash with a chemical truck and combined with that melodramatic stand-by, a lightning strike revives them as zombies (who still enjoy sex), and this becomes a pretty exciting horror/action film.

In one of the film's effectively gruesome sequence, the re-animated teens avenge themselves on the undertaker by treating him as he has treated corpses, killing him with an airhose. The zombies pursue Grimes and his beautiful tomboy mechanic girlfriend named Charlie (Cheryl Pollak), surviving death by bullet, fire, furnace, axe, train, and drowning before being put out of commision.

Adequately acted, especially by Grimes and Pollak, this is a cut above other horror farces.
