Dead Man on Campus

Pros: Hilarious
Cons: -

Imagine searching out the most suicidal person on campus. That's what the 1998 Paramount and M TV movie has two guys doing in order to make the grade. Dead Man on Campus is a great movie for comedy lovers.

The Plot:
When the...

Pros: beer, sex, girls, parties, oh and a pretty good movie
Cons: nothing

I wish the college I went to had a rule like this. Ok maybe I should have highlighted the word went. This movie is about what every high school and college student dreams about when they are doing poorly in school. Everyone tries to find that one loop...

Pros: Good slapstick humor, funny concept/good plot
Cons: Iffy characterization, cheesy 80s'ish ending

Want to breeze through college? Let your roommate kill himself.

This is the central concept behind the 1998 film Dead Man on Campus. Starring Mark-Paul Gosselaar (Saved by the Bell) as Cooper and Tom Everett Scott (Boiler...

Pros: A number of clever satirical jabs; a handful of good performances, great soundtrack
Cons: Juvenile, low-brow humor; insubstantial female characters; unflattering stereotypes

Dead Man on Campus is a dark comedy about the benefits of going to college: non-stop parties, free booze, and more sex than anyone could possibly want. Okay, I'm kidding. Dead Man on Campus is, in actuality, a dark comedy about the...

Pros: The Story, The Laughs, Cliff
Cons: Not Suitable For Children

Dead Man On Campus is hilarious! I had rented this movie a while back and I watched it with my parents. Let me tell you, the whole room was filled with laughter. You might want to urinate before you watch this movie. Well, no one had a problem but I'm...

Pros: A clever opening title sequence.
Cons: Just about everything that follows.

While I am not fond of any writer's use of cheap, easy puns, I am not completely above using them myself when the situation merits. So here goes: the juvenile, college-set black comedy Dead Man on Campus is dead on arrival.

...

Pros: funny, keeps you captivated to see what they’ll do next.
Cons: some unnecessary scenes, lots of use of profanity, where not needed

This movie’s plot is very simple and is easy to describe. There are two guys. One is a complete party type guy and the other one is the complete opposite. They try to live in a room together, with a guy named Kyle, who isn’t there most of the movie....

Pros: This movie was good for one laugh.
Cons: This movie was good for one laugh.

Dead Man on Campus is "good for a laugh." As in ONE laugh. Sadly, the lonely laugh comes approximately 90 minutes into this 96-minute film (it felt much, much longer) when soon-to-be-flunked-out-of-college student Cooper observes that one...

Pros: Some inane, fluffy fun.
Cons: Gags go on too long. Goes downhill (from downhill).

DEAD MAN ON CAMPUS: Comedy. If you are between the ages of 14 and 22, like to party excessively, avoid school work, and get off on watching some suicidal nincompoop hump everything from a couch to thin air, then this movie is for you! Actually ,...

Pros: Fresh young actors, semi-interesting plot
Cons: not very thrilling or indepth

This pseudo black comedy does bring to light some of the stress put on college students today (not that it is much more than it has been for at least fifty years), but it also leads you to believe that they bring it on themselves - not attending class,...

Pros: Excellent Casting, writing, and characters. Outrageously funny.
Cons: If you've never seen it in real life, you probably won't get it.

I saw this movie the summer after my High School Graduation. I remember that I was leaving home to go to the University of Pittsburgh. Home being small town Ohio, I was pretty nervous. My friends took me out to see this movie and I could only think of...

Pros: Couple of funny moments
Cons: It stars the guy who played Zack in "Saved By the Bell." I mean, come on.

In the tradition of Joe's Apartment (that phrase alone should be a red flag to you), MTV brings us its latest cinematic masterpiece, Dead Man on Campus. Sure, they'll be making movies until the end of time about how college turns brainiacs into party...

Pros: Dumb. Some attractive people.
Cons: Really Dumb.

This movie is better on video than it was in the theaters.

See it if you are drunk at a party and somebody else rented it but do NOT pay money for it.

In the theaters it was one of those movies where you want to just walk out...

Pros: well written and directed
Cons: bad concept

Dead Man on Campus is a movie that me and my friends watched, right before I left for college. This movie portrayed and interesting opinion, that I feel was not a very good idea. The fact that if your roommate dies, you recieve straight A's. This is...

Pros: None
Cons: Low Grade Humor, Adult Themes

If you're looking for a truly raunchy, adolescent flick Dead Man on Campus is for you.

This is a movie that was created by MTV to reach it's usual Spring Break watching audience. The story centers around Josh Miller (Tom Everett Scott) who...
