Dead Man on Campus

EW's GRADE
D

Details Movie Rated: R; Genre: Comedy; With: Mark-Paul Gosselaar and Tom Everett Scott

The premise of this college comedy comes from a campus myth that roommates of a student who commits suicide get As for the semester (so that they can grieve unencumbered). Hearing this, floundering frosh Josh (Scott) and Cooper (Gosselaar) hunt for a self-destructive student, hoping to capitalize on his demise. The result aspires to antisocial hilarity but never rises above tedious turmoil. D
