8. George Clooney – Return to Horror High
via ihorror.com
Before ER, before the Oscar win, before his rise as a respected actor/director, George Clooney made his debut in this 1987 horror comedy. It’s an odd movie, mixing reality and fantasy with the idea of a film crew shooting a documentary on murders but somehow creating even more. Clooney is the actor playing the security guard going around the school grounds in a tense shot in darkened hallways. He ends up in a storage room, finding a body in the ceiling before he’s attacked. We see from the outside as he’s hacked up, slamming on the glass window of the door before sliding down to his death. Like much of the rest of the film, it’s up in the air what really happens but still fun to see this future mega-star killed off with that goofy ‘80’s haircut.
