billcr12 Casey Noland is a clueless high school kid who is bored with life and decides that he wants to be a serial killer. He just can't bring himself to actually kill anyone. He meets the nerdy Sasha Fitzgerald(Lisa Loeb, the singer), and she wishes to commit suicide and asks him to assist her in the act. Noland has the ambition to be a famous, Ted Bundy like murderer but when someone else steals the spotlight, he gets jealous. Thomas Haden Church plays Vince Grimaldi, the rival for media attention. Church is fine, as always, but the film is neither funny or scary and I was bored to death, excuse the pun, by the time Serial Killers for is over, you will feel like a dummy for wasting 89 minutes watching this garbage.
jbarker71 It's nice to see Thomas Haden Church doing some work, as his performances are always good. On top of everything- this film was well made, I thought. Cinematography, acting, and the editing. The music wasn't my favorite, in places (check out the White Zomby rip-offs). I spent most of the movie wondering why Lisa Loeb was there, and wondering why she was in a high school flick, when she'd be in her 30s. She and the Casey character acted quite well, I thought. Favorite line was was the coach talking about how someone couldn't hide up a rope in a large gymnasium. Not that that's really a cliché (hiding up a rope), but this movie didn't really deconstruct serial killers (sure, it profiled them), as it was a comedy first and foremost and a gore flick somewhere later.Oh, so THAT'S why they were throwing frisbees...
IceStorm007 I'm sorry to say this but "Serial Killing 4 Dummys" was the worst movie ever to be seen by my eyes. While the back of the cover lets you think it is a horror movie it is not anything near that. I presume 'comedy' would be the best description for it but that is only because the whole movie is ridiculous. Not only the plot (almost non existing anyway, a high school boy with a passion for serial killing isn't able to kill, his girlfriend is obsessed with death itself and in the meantime a few people are murdered), but also the characters, the outfits, the setting, the "special" effects etc, everything is just plain crap. The whole movie has the look and feel as if some 12 year old made it with his next door friends.On the whole, I would not recommend this one at all (you probably can't find it anyway and not without reason).
junethesis This movie has Lisa Loeb casted in it for, as far as I know, her only movie part ever. There are several interesting death scenes and gratuitous comedy. Thomas Hayden Church, aka Loel from "Wings," plays a janitor with a dark side. See it, if you can find it.
