LouHomey From my favorite movies..

Salubfoto It's an amazing and heartbreaking story.

Numerootno A story that's too fascinating to pass by...

Catangro After playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.

JÄnis Locis This movie has not received the respect and attention it deserves, for unknown reasons. In my opinion, "Dead Man On Campus" is an awesome college comedy. People just tend to take it too seriously and don't judge it objectively.The premise might sound harsh and stupid for some, that of course is making your room mate commit suicide we are talking about here, but it is played in a very comical way and the movie has mostly mild humour and all of that gives this movie an awesome, relaxed vibe.You know what you are going to get, when you watch a film like this, and at least for me it provided what i expected, i felt entertained and that is exactly what this film is about.

camachbr0 I was drawn to this film because Randy Pearlstein (Buckley) is a mentor of mine and Lochlyn Munro is the funniest actor on the planet. If you don't think so watch the first 20 minutes of Scary Movie, and Night at the Roxbury. This film lives on their performances alone. Josh and Cooper are freshman. Cooper didn't come to school to study and Josh, on a scholarship, can't make decisions for himself. Cooper gets Josh wasted, gets him laid, but gets him failing his classes. (Literally F,F,F,F,F) Cooper gets busted up by his dad who tells him he's going to be working in the mill, devoid of all sunlight, if he doesn't pick up his grades. Josh doesn't have Cooper's family money, so he needs the scholarship to stay in school. Solution, find an unstable roommate to move in, and make them kill themselves. This is like a SAW! It's fun to see Jason Segel, Linda Cardinelli, Alyson Hannigan look young, and play funny college students. However leading men Tom Scott, and Mark Gosselaar come off as really annoying and sometimes undistinguishable. It's UNBEARABLE when Josh repeats "my guy". Cooper is an unlikable bad influence. (Steve Stifler had some heart) There's nothing the film establishes about Cooper that's good for Josh. Josh's love interest could have been better developed. The patchy ending isn't to my liking either. It's definitely ALL dumb fun leading up to its silly, interesting premise and especially when they're testing suicide candidates. But when it's time to get down to it, the climax, the drama, there's really nothing to be taken serious. Lochlyn Munro needs a leading role as this character he played in the late 90s.

bubbathom This movie had a very good storyline. It was just executed poorly. The actors were OK, but I thought Gosselaar was kind of annoying. The funniest part was one of the mental guys they brought in who thought Bill Gates was trying to kill him. He was pretty funny, but they didn't have him in a lot of scenes. I didn't think it was close to Animal House, but then again, it is just my opinion. I thought the ending was pretty clever and kind of funny. That's about it for me though. I won't say it's overrated like many other people, because it's just my point of view, someone else might think this is the best movie ever. I wish they would have executed it a little bit better, it may have turned out kind of like Superbad. As I said, the plot was very good. Just some better dialogue, and maybe different actors. It would be kind of cool to see something like a remake. But that usually only happens with famous movies. Anyways, pretty boring.3/10.

SuperSonicX "Dead Man On Campus" is a film about two guys who enroll at Daleman College, and become roommates. Josh enrolls via a scholarship, and is studying to become a doctor, and Cooper, well, he's just there to avoid having to clean toilets for a living at his father's business, and of course, to goof off and party. Josh eventually decides to party with Cooper, and as a result, starts to fail every class he's in. He winds up failing his mid-terms, and he finds out that he needs to maintain a B+ average if he wants to keep his scholarship.One night, while the boys are at a local bar, they find out that if your roommate commits suicide, you get straight As for your grief, so they decide to move a suicidal roommate into their dorm! In my opinion, the best roommate they find is a no holds barred psychotic named Cliff O'Malley (played by the underrated Lochlyn Munro). Cliff is my favorite character in this film! He's so wacky, and he completely lacks sanity or a conscience! Most of his dialogue and facial expressions in this film are priceless!As for their other roommates: Buckley: He's a computer nerd who's paranoid, suicidal, and thinks Bill Gates is after his brain! Matt Noonan: He's the "depressed" goth rock star who acts happy and likes to sing show tunes when no one's around! In the end: For off the wall teen comedies, this is as good as it gets. This movie originally bombed at the box office when released in August of 1998, and seems to be forgotten nowadays, but trust me, it's funny, and the character Cliff totally makes it worth the admission! It's bound to become a cult classic sooner or later.
