I always try to think of movies that I've seen as a kid, whether it was something i watched all the time, or something
i caught once on a cinemax late one night and enjoyed it. But I've been searching for the longest time for a cheap horror movie that I seen on cinemax when i was probably around 8 years old, so around 1993 i saw it. I know it's from the 80's and back, because of the film quality. The only remembrance i have of it, was a killer was at a school, and there was one of his victims, he was about to kill, and he had a choice between a knife, gun, a banana (i think) and pins, and overall the choices he chose the pins (it was a horror/laugh cheapish movie, like nuke'em high was.) and there was another part i remember where an older heavy set woman was dancing and singing for some sort of audition and the words she was singing ,that i remember, was "I'm a big fat mama" and something else. I'm very good with Google and keywords, but for the past 4 years I've been looking, i can't find anything for the life of me.

Any help would be much appreciated


Thanks

If it was one of those hysterical comedies, it might have been one of those "National Lampoon" movies. Was it called "National Lampoon´s Class Reunion"? Actually I´m not sure if I really saw it, but it might be in the same league. Chuck Berry has a cameao...

The "Class Reunion" is probably a good one to check out.  I do not remember those scenes, but it has been so long I do not remember much of the movie anymore.  Ditto for another worth checking out:  "Student Bodies" - though most people remember the killer's heavy breathing and the bodycount total displayed on the screen if they are looking for "Student Bodies"

The first part definitely sounds like the beginning of Student Bodies.

The second part does not, however.  I've seen it multiple times and there's nothing like that in the movie.  Keep looking?
Every dead body that is not exterminated becomes one of them. It gets up and kills. The people it kills, get up and kill.

Mr_Vindictive

Sounds like you are confusing Student Bodies and National Lampoon's Class Reunion.  I know that the first portion is in fact Student Bodies.  I have a copy of Class Reunion around here somewhere and I'll pop it in to see if any of it matches.

A bald man named Savalas visited me last night in a dream.  I think it was a Telly vision.

DUDE YOU GUYS ARE AMAZING!  I googled it, which took me to youtube, and that first part was definitely it. "STUDENT BODIES". Remembering the guy with the mustache and Gilligan looking hat, and yes the breathing heavily and body count total on the screen definitely brought on some deja vu. Simply amazing. Thanks so much

But as far as the woman auditioning for a movie part singing that "I'm a big fat mama, big and fat" song, i have no clue what it is or could be.

Since I'm trying to think of movies, and this forum seems to work wonders, I thought of another movie, I'm not quite sure of what it is. All i remember was I think Andrew McCarthy (Weekend at Bernie's) was in it, and i believe he may have been a photographer or a surgeon and had his own sewed-on limbed prostitute or something, then i remember he had gone through the same thing screaming at the end of the movie and he had his body parts sewed on, and was now a Frankenstein-ish prostitute woman at the end of the movie. I went to IMDB and went through all his movies and plots and none of them seem to ring a bell, but I'm like 85 percent sure it was him.

So i just need help finding the Andrew McCarthy (if it was him) movie, and the Big fat mama singing lady movie, and i'm set ha.

Thanks again guys, you're all awesome.

This definitely sounds like "Frankenhooker."  I do have a review for that one, written ages ago:

so,are these quotes from the big fat mama movie?
i could swear i saw something like that in an old john waters movie,but i can't recall which one...will have to check out imdb,i think...

RapscallionJones

Nah.  They're both from Student Bodies.  At one point, the killers whacks someone with an eggplant and there's a running joke throughout about horsehead bookends.

The title of the breathing killer and body count movie was already answered:  "Student Bodies" is the film.
