 Hell Hole High student Doink Doinkerson taunts a surveillance camera. Our story unravels as three teens receive parental scoldings for their disappointing behavior. Billy for using his parents' credit cards to buy time with prostitutes. Tiffany for refusing to get the boob-job she needs in order to win the Catholic Schoolgirl Beauty Pageant. And Doink? Problems with punctuality. All three are sent to reform school: the notorious Hell Hole High. The new enrollees are caught by surprise by Hell Hole High's tough-love philosophy. The sex-ed teacher punishes one of her students by burning him alive. The P.E. teacher subjects his boys to a harsh regimen of unseemly touchings. And when the music teacher gives a lesson in rock 'n roll guitar, the body parts really go flying. Outside of school, the three follow very different paths on the road to adulthood. Billy takes up with a trailer-park sugarmama; Tiffany moves in with lesbians and starts an anti-surveillance society; and Doink, under the mentorship of a wise transient, begins his attempt to win Tiffany's heart.
"Everything is forbidden" Despite it's flaws, I couldn't help but love HELL HOLE HIGH. I was chuckling at bits of dialogue days later. The project exudes a frenzied pace and unique personality. Imagine the old MTV series LIQUID TELEVISION catapulted into the non-animated world and add heaping doses of irony and you will know what to expect. It's funny, the plot intriguing and the soundtrack begging for an official release. Maybe it's the skewed view some of us have of society that made it so palatable. As one lecturer says to the protagonists, "You kids wouldn't know peace and love if it bit you on the ass." Very true, but I know a buried treasure when I see it." CULT CUTS Magazine
Who can forget the "Seattle Anti-Surveillance Society" subplot of Hell Hole High? You know, where Tiffany holds secret after school meetings plotting the
destruction of security cameras?
An "anarchist" who takes himself a little too seriously comments on SASS
"Mixed in with the moments of bizarre comedy are scenes of gore including a stabbing with scissors,
burning and guts galore. It's mind numbingly silly, but I couldn't turn away until the end credits
rolled (and even then I had to stick around and watch the outtakes!). The moments of bizarre violence stand to compliment the films equally bizarre sense of humor.
Fans of the oddest in indie cult cinema should ultimately be pleased."
LOST IN TRANSLATION: A British lad who just didn't like the film at all:
"Unfortunately this film aims to be a comedy and it wasn't that funny at all, ever."

Her commitment to a woman's right to be topless in public
led her to perform a now famous 1999 act of civil disobedience. After climbing a
high-voltage electrical tower adjacent to busy Interstate 5, Ara "doffed her top

Coop Architect was featured in Pacific Coast Magazine.
Karen Heaven
