Customer Reviews:
Great piece of independent film making!.......2004-07-16
Ok - I might be biased since I worked on the film, but I have yet to work on another film where the budget was low and the talent was high!
It is too bad that this movie has now almost become a social commentary on the violence we see in schools - while that was not the point of the film it is hard not to see how the kids in middle and high school "Get caught up in all of the BS" to quote Dan, the Hall Monitor.
I agree with one of the other reviews that it does lag a bit in the middle but it's a great film none the less! One I am happy to have in my collection!
High School Hierarchy & Low Budget at it's Finest!.......2003-12-24
What did you hate MOST about high school? The relentless hierarchy of social status? The simultaneous pressures of going through biological changes AND trying to look like you AREN'T going through biological changes? How about the lack of competent role models and support resources? These feelings and more are brought to life in, "The Hall Monitor" except this time - there's justice in the hallways! This is a perfect movie for those of us who are still bitter about the torture of high school. My only gripe about this DVD is Troma's inappropriate marketing ploy "intro" - it has nothing to do with the film and well, it's just plain nauseating to anyone who isn't a white, heterosexual male. Might I add - the waiter in the cafeteria scene rules!
Troma does it again!.......2003-05-14
In the grand tradition of Toxie and Sgt. Kabukiman NYPD comes Dan Kashwood - The Hall Monitor! Dealing death and judgement in the halls of a 'typical' high school, this character stands alone as one of the most offensive and hilarious heroes ever to grace a Troma movie.
For a low budget shoot-em-up comedy it holds together pretty well. The middle tends to drag a bit (hence the 4 stars) but it builds to such a ridiculous cilmax that it's a minor complaint.
Like many of the reviewers I saw this flick at a film festival in AC like 2 years ago and am thrilled it will finally be available on DVD. Troma usually loads their discs with extras. Will there be any on THM?! I hope so. If you're not easily offended give this one a look. Destined to become a cult classic, at least in my collection.
Crazy Carrots.......2003-05-13
I must say I didn't understand much of this movie but the Giant Carrot running around in it. It made me laugh. I also liked Spaceballs and Snow Dogs. But this movie is in a High School enviroment, and the characters are off the hook! Especially I heard about extra scenes and bloopers stuff on the DVD. Thank you.
Just When You Think There Ain't Enough Killing in Movies.......2003-05-12
Enter The Hall Monitor.
I saw this gem at some flim flam festival in Atlantic City and it made feel a whole lot better about losing all my money. I've been looking for it ever since 1999. . . and finally, here it is.
Now I can finally prove to my friends that I wasn't dreaming about the flick with the best frog dissection scene ever.
This movie is funny and funny.
