This movie is beyond bad. Hall, Thurman, and Downey must cringe anytime this movie is even mentioned to them.

Odd thing is, I just had the urge to watch this last night. This movie is beyond bad. I think Hissler is really the only interesting character. The high school band when he visited SCC was from my high school, when I was in high school. my gf is in the shot where he's driving away in the car.

This movie is number one on my all time worst. Yes, I know there are worse movies on an absolute basis. This one is the worst I've ever seen because I have do doubt the director thought he was making a statement on the sleaze of college recruiting. He didn't. This POS is so bad it defies description.

I liked the movie.
Bought it on VHS when it first came out.
