Chris Haskell Wow, Irv Berwick really went for it all. Unintentionally funny dialog around every corner, crazy femme fatale who has yet to graduate high school, and one of the most hilarious soundtracks in memory all equal a very enjoyable time. This is still a Crown International Picture, and is estimated to have been made for $56K ... and it shows. Production quality aside this is a gem of the Crown International oeuvre (is it fair attach a respectable name to their catalog?) and a must, must see for anyone seeking a horribly awesome movie. The main actress only ever acted in one movie and even that fact adds an air of mystery and mystique to the production. Malibu High is a step above Trolls 2 in terms of actual quality, but it rivals the town of Nilbog for guilty pleasure-ness-ity.

Robert J. Maxwell Jill Lansing is a high school senior who has just broken up with her boyfriend, Kevin. Naturally she's distraught. To distract her from her own distress, she disses her mother, wears a provocative outfit to school, arranges to become a prostitute, and seduces one of her teachers, Mr. Donaldson.Jill and Mr. Donaldson have an assignation at the beach. Wordless. She disrobes. He disrobes. Then they roll around in their underwear. You can tell Mr. Donaldson because he's the one with the gray hair and slate blue briefs. Jill Lansing is the one with the breasts whose nipples are the size of bull's eyes on a dartboard -- oh, and the chaste white underpants.Those are only from the first few minutes of the movie. I wanted to see more of Jill Lansing's generous bosom, just out of curiosity, and determined to fast-forward through the intrigues and get to the nudity, but I found I simply lacked the energy to pick up the remote control.Either this movie is in terrible shape or I am.

Zeegrade Malibu High is the story of struggling student Kim Bentley (Jill Lansing in her one and only screen performance) who will do anything, and I definitely mean anything, in order to graduate. We are introduced to our chain smoking heroine in a not too flattering topless state late for school once again. I am by no means to be considered a prude when it comes to nudity, however Jill Lansing's not so flattering figure is made even worse with a tacky white as snow tan line. This wouldn't be a big deal if it was just one scene. Instead her frequent nudity becomes cringe inducing as the movie drags on. And drags it does. Since Kim is a nasty individual who berates her divorced mother it's no surprise that she was dumped by her boyfriend Kevin. One of the more humorous things about this movie is the music that follows one of Kim's many ill-tempered quips she chooses to end a scene with. It sounds vaguely similar to losing a character in Donkey Kong. Newly single, Kim decides to prove to Kevin she isn't a loser by not only graduating high school but graduating with straight A's. You might be shocked to learn that instead of actually opening a book and trying to learn something she decides on seducing her mostly male teachers with sex in exchange for better grades. Sort of a quid pro ho. Zing! One point for me! What makes things worse is the fact that some teachers appear to hate her even more after their tryst by the ocean. At least she didn't flunk economics as she decides to earn some money hooking for local drug-dealing thug Tony instead of just putting out in lieu of grades. Kim seems to have found her lot in life as scenes of her entertaining various johns inside Tony's minibus with one particular belly laugh inducing shot of a chain of men waiting outside for their date with this surfer trash succubus.Success comes easy (no pun intended) for Kim and soon she catches the eye of Lance who appears to be a scout for hooker stars of the future. She leaves behind Tony and his minibus for the higher-end clientele of overweight mustachioed psychopaths in dirty hotels. Way to move up Kim! One of these encounters leads to Kim accidentally killing her customer. This gives Lance the opportunity to promote her to contract killer. So, instead of killing off half the Malibu population with various STD's she opts for just shooting them sparing us from seeing her pale breasts again. Thanks Lance! Her last target happens to be the father of Kevin's new girlfriend. The hit is performed at the same time Kevin's entourage arrives allowing them to witness Kim exiting the house. Kim shoots Kevin's girlfriend in the stomach and flees the scene with Kevin in hot pursuit accompanied by the theme from The People's Court. She is finally gunned down by the police ending her reign of tan lined terror.Bad acting, awful outfits, and pure late seventies cheese that many exploitation movies of this time depicted actually helps when viewing this. Anyone who watches this isn't expecting deep story lines and fully developed characters. It does have serious flaws as Jill Lansing is anything but lead material and the plot drags slower than a battleship on dry land. Still, a fun one time only movie just for the goofy soundtrack and the school dance disco scene. You may need a shower when it's done.

Sro100 It's definitely the best story I've ever seen about a girl who wants better grades and then becomes a prostitute and then becomes an assassin. Part of the excellent "Welcome to the Grindhouse" series complete with trailers for other good trash. This movie also contains the ODDEST music cues ever; one was used on the old SCTV and they also use the song that became "The People's Court" theme. Bad acting, unbelievable plotting make this is a "MUST OWN" for connoisseurs of bad cinema. The DVD is paired with "Trip with the Teacher" another grade Z champion seemingly "inspired" by "Last House on the Left." The entire "Welcome to the Grindhouse" is essential DVD.
