I still like them, those 80s high school comedies, in which a lot of nudity is mixed with pranks.
Zapped! is one of the nicer ones. The effects are (too) simple, but they work. The story is very predictable, but the acting certainly makes it a lot more interesting.
Very nice!
3.5*

One of the many teen comedies from that era. In addition to the usual platitudes, this adds a touch of sci-fi, which leads to extra silliness. Contains references to Star Trek, Taxi Driver and The Exorcist. And Carrie with the Proms stuff and the telekinesis. If you take it all with a grain of salt - necessary to watch such films - this guarantees a nice bit of relaxation. The soundtrack is of course completely upbeat eighties.
