10: The Faculty (1998) - Directed by Robert Rodriguez, this high school horror follows a group of students who believe that their teachers are aliens and that they are intent on making the students their victims. Starring Elijah Wood and Josh Hartnett.

9: Disturbing Behaviour (1998) (Dir. David Nutter)

8: Zombie High (1987) (Dir. Ron Link) - A teenage girl gains a scholarship to an all-male boarding school, but soon discovers that her fellow classmates are becoming personality-less drones. As she investigates the school, she discovers the faculty may be experimenting on students

7: Sorority Row (2009) (Dir. Stewart Hendler)

6: Urban Legend (1998) (Dir. Jamie Blanks)

5: Battle Royale (2000) (Dir. Kinji Fukasaku) - This isn't really your usual high school horror, the Japanese government captures a class of ninth-grade students and forces them to kill each other under the revolutionary "Battle Royale" act. So slightly a bit more farfetched, it still has a lot of relevance to our group project.

4: Prom Night (2008) (Nelson McCormick)

3: Return To Horror High (1987) (Bill Froehlich)

2: Tormented (2009) (Dir. Jon Wright) - A bullied teenager returns from the dead to kill all who drove him to suicide. I personally like this idea and hopefully we could use some of the ideas in our own project.

1: Scream (1996) ( Wes Craven) - One of the most significant horror films to date, Ghostface terrorizes a school and with the bodycount rising, one student and her friends find themselves contemplating the rules of horror films as they find themselves in a real horror film of their own. Not only will this film contribute towards our group work, but also for the study of postmodernism.
