Comfort Films 121: Rock 'n' Roll High School (1979)


Listen Later

School just started, but we're already ready for a couple of skip days! First off, we're joining Riff Randell (PJ Soles) and The Ramones to take on Principal Togar (Mary Woronov) and her fascist high school administration in this cult classic midnight movie from executive producer and B-movie godfather Roger Corman. We discuss the surprisingly long and complex process of script development, director Allan Arkush's musical pedigree, high school rebellion, lots of behind-the-scenes stories, movie connections and influences, and of course, the music and on-set antics of The Ramones. Come make a black mark on your permanent record with us!
