What are some of the most memorable lines you LOVED from Student Bodies?
My friends and I saw this when it came out in 1981 at a DRIVE IN MOVIE THEATER!! Still quote (and love) film after all these years!

(as blind student loses handycap parking space)
Beauty Queen: "Great physical beauty can be a handicap too".

(as students run off to go have sex)
Hardy: "Maybe he had to go to the Bathroom or something"?

VanDyke: "It sounded like you were speaking through a rubber chicken".

Breather: "I'd like to kill the kid with the GUM!"

I don't know it exactly, but when the protagonist argues with her friend over discovering the identity of the killer:

"Somebody's committing these murders..."
"Anybody could be committing these murders."
"Yeah, but I'm 'anybody' and I'm not doing them."
"So, you're also 'somebody.'"
"Well everybody can't be doing them!"
"So nobody is?"

They shrugg and leave it at that.

Hahaha... I loved it.

"We have included this scene to make sure that this film obtains a R rating.. *beep* You.."

"You're just jealous because im in training to become a cage fighter" - Kip Dynamite

[–] billyb8671 19 years ago

Of course all of these are paraphrased, even though I'm using quotes.

"the producers of this film would like me to say....F you"

"Melvert help make punch........ Melvert pee red"

"Tony our boy-queen canidate" (not sure of name, boy with Dr Pepper shirt, on the queens float for homecoming)

"whats going on in my house at $2.75 an hour" (not sure of exact amount of money an hour)

site gag I love is, at the funeral, when the 2 go off to have sex, she asks him if he has protection, he runs off to get some, and comes back with a bag full of groceries.

"give me a boo, give a whoo-hoo-hoo" (the cheer at the funeral)

"Tony our boy-queen canidate" (not sure of name, boy with Dr Pepper shirt, on the queens float for homecoming)

"whats going on in my house at $2.75 an hour" (not sure of exact amount of money an hour)

Im pretty sure its BARRY our boy-queen candidate (very funny).
and i think the mom said "whats going on in my house at 75 cents an hour" but it was a little more at first and then the mom and dad kept dropping the $ amount. =)

god i loved the rediculous dialogue in that movie.

When the killer is having trouble with his cardio endurance while walking up the stairs to kill someone:

"Oh, these stairs...I hope I don't die first."

And then his hand gets stuck to some gum on the bannister. Hilarious.

[–] TequilaMockingbird63 19 years ago

"UGH SUGARLESS.....I'D LIKE TO KILL THE KID WITH THE GUM"!!

[–] saltrapty 19 years ago

i cant believe nobody has said this one yet. this is one of my all time favorite lines from a movie.....its when they are sitting in the teachers lounge and the phone rings. and mrs van dyke says...
"I'll get it. I'm furtherst from the phone." and the old woman replies seriously "that makes sense" i LOVE that line.
my second favorite would have to be..."I'd like to kill the kid with the gum" student bodies is so good. if there isnt a myspace group for it yet, there will be soon.

[–] TequilaMockingbird63 19 years ago

Nurse Krud and Miss VanDyke:

"I'll get it. I'm furtherst from the phone" "that makes sense"

i swear to this day when im hanging out with my sister and a phone rings we look at each other and say those lines as serioulsy as they were said in the film and oh how we laugh. and we saw the movie TWENTY YEARS AGO! (i cant explain it nor do i care)

good one!

Other than that, life's a bowl of Palmolive and I'm soaking in it.

[–] dthompson-13 19 years ago

Didn't the movie start out with dates at the bottom of the screen like this:

Friday the 13th

Halloween

Prom Night

Jamie Lee Curtis' Birthday

[–] TequilaMockingbird63 19 years ago

YES!!! forgot that. funny!

It's cute how you think im listening.

[–] TejanaNC 19 years ago

(LOVING this thread! and finally other people who know "Scream" may have been good, but sure wasn't original...)

What I remember most strongly, if inaccurately, were the screen titles pointing out the cliché stupid moves on the part of horror-movie characters, a la:

flashing screen title:
"DOOR IS UNLOCKED" ...
"STUPID STUPID STUPID"

Haven't been able to see this one since 1983; can anyone confirm the wording on this bit?

[–] TequilaMockingbird63 19 years ago

hi TejanaNC thats a great question.
what WERE all the titles/chyrons on the screen??
yes you are correct (from what i remember) a flashing arrow "unlocked..." "stupid" (rings a bell). gosh im so happy im not the only one who loved this film!!!!!

Great physical beauty can be a handicap too.

[–] schtaad 19 years ago

My favorite lines are:

Breather (opening the parents' desk): ah, ah...What shall I use to kill the babysitter? Ah, ah...gun? Ah, ah...rope? Ah, ah...knife? Ah, ah...PAPERCLIPS!!! Yes! PAPERCLIPS!

And then when the parents come home to find the babysitter stabbed with no less than a million paperclips.

Also "Mrs. Van Dyke...what's in a name? Everything!"

About six of my friends love this movie and quote it regularly. Yes, we all own horsehead bookends.

Husband and Wife returning home from movie theater:
Wife:"How can anyone spend money on garbage like that?"
Husband:"Hurry up dear, or we'll miss the Dukes of Hazard!"

"Funerals get me hot".
"Hollow bulls get me hot".
"These horse heads get me hot".
"Garbage gets me hot".

Principal Peters: "All these years I've been naked under my clothes".

Breather:"Do You Like Eggplant?"

[–] TequilaMockingbird63 19 years ago

Husband: "Hurry up dear, or we'll miss the Dukes of Hazard!"

forgot about that one. VERY FUNNY!.

[–] nickyak 19 years ago

In the crowded office, the Breather makes a phone call. When no one budges to answer it, a woman on the far side of the office says, "Oh, I'll get it. I'm closest to the phone." That killed me when I saw this in the theater back in 81 (man am I old)!

[–] steve_neirinck 19 years ago

"julie, you're not responding to my maleness?"

[–] openingcredits 19 years ago

"I'm farthest from the phone. I'll get it."

And also "(Fill in blank) gets me hot!"

[–] deptZero 19 years ago

"nice balloons"

"the junior class is putting on a non musical version of Grease"

[–] Progdrummer155 19 years ago

Id have to say my favorite part is when the breather is running and he says "why am I wearing rain boots, its not even raining". But my favorite scene is when the dog meows and blows a fart, I was thinking what the *beep* is this?

[–] kellyjm77 19 years ago

Army Boy comes back with condom after Prom Queen is killed: "God, oh mother, your country!" "You're Dead!" "Let's have one for old times sake" "Well, I won't be needing this" "Hey, I'm trying to get laid over here".

[–] VoyagerOne 19 years ago

Hey hey!

Yes, finally, one with the line; "Nice balloons!" ;)

Whatever happened to her, anyway?

Ok, here's some more, paraphrased, I think --

(The Principal is trying to leave the big game)
"I've got to go pick up my daughter at the airport..."
"Dad, my plane came in early!"

I hope that's this movie and not "Pandemonium"!

Breather's POV in the girls shower: "Boobies!"

[–] Phil_Doe 16 years ago

All this time I thought that was you breathing and saying "Boobies".

You know, I did work with Sinbad on Sinbad's Reality U. Check it out on Youtube.com

[–] TequilaMockingbird63 19 years ago

"hmmmmm chicken"

spies chicken leg on floor with bite out of it. Picks up chicken leg...picks up bite

"hmmm. Broken".

gets rubberband from atop the refrigerator, wraps it around the chicken leg after replacing the bite...places it back on the KFC plate in the fridge.
