“I’m gonna be like everybody else! I’m gonna make friends! I’m gonna have fun! I’m gonna wear make-up, I’m gonna go out with boys, I’m gonna sleep with truck drivers and get crabs, and I’m gonna finally get to use my diaphragm!” Oh, and Glen is played by Judge Reinhold, just so you know.Īnother quote from the movie is the following said by Candy: Yeah, the whole movie is cheesy goodness like that. Like their names, which you find out during roll call. The movie is totally full of puns and funny one-liners and just flat-out schtick. The only thing is, I remember “Pandemonium” as actually being GOOD.
In a way, I think this movie was a precursor to all of the terrible, recent horror movie spoofs that we’ve been subjected too. Tooth Decay pillow going “Nyah, nyah-nyah, nyah nyah!” Like Candy (or was it Mandy) who was obsessed with her white teeth and smile, and the killer choked her to death with massive quantities of toothpaste.Īnd then the killer taunted her dead body with a Mr. It took place at a cheerleading camp of some sort, where these terribly chipper cheerleaders got off’d one by one in humerous, over-the-top ways. I haven’t thought about or seen this movie in AGES (probably since 1982) but it has stuck with me to this day. So one became very familiar with certain films– even enamored of them.Īnyway, for some reason this morning I woke up thinking about a campy horror movie that I saw back then called “Pandemonium”. They also showed the same goddamn movies over and over and over again… a lot. Remember HBO in the 80’s? They had that cheesy rotating HBO logo with the rainbow lightshow swirling around the “O” at the beginning of every feature presentation. My family has finally gone upscale and we have cable… with HBO! The year is 1982 and I am in 7th grade (or Grade 7 for my Canadian readers).
