The film spoofed everything from 'Carrie' and 'Prom Night' to 'Halloween' and 'Stir Crazy.'
Michael BergeronAngela Bressler, Sara Eckhardt, Kristen Riter, and Anita Taylor in Student BodiesThe 1981 horror-film parody, “Student Bodies,” which was shot in Houston in the fall of 1980, has withstood the test of time to become a cult classic.
But for Houston based production coordinator Susan Vogelfang, who now lives in Los Angeles, it all started when she got a call out of the blue from director Michael Ritchie of “Bad News Bears” fame. “Michael quoted me a higher rate than I’d ever made,”says Vogelfang. A parade utilizing Foley’s Store floats was staged at the corner of Main Street and Bell Street. Today, the only recognizable remaining building seen in the background is Houston House Apartments. The floats are seen against The Exile Club, once the oldest gay bar in town, which was located at 1011 Bell St. but closed in 1986.
Belson’s credits include producing and writing “The Odd Couple” and he also voiced The Breather. Miller was nominated for an Oscar for “Private Benjamin.”Craig Busch, then a production assistant who would become a Houston location manager, recalls Rose and the other writers rewriting jokes on the set everyday.
Ritchie brought prop master Donald Nunley from Hollywood so he had a heavyweight in the art department.
