Pretty Maids All in a Row (1971)

In the heart of the sexual revolution, the sun-drenched halls of Oceanfront High School in California are abuzz with uninhibited desires and secrets. A peculiar tension weaves its way through the air as the female students, products of the era, find themselves puzzled by the lack of male advances, often prompting them to take the initiative. At the epicenter of their fascination stands Michael McDrew, the high school's charismatic football coach and guidance counselor, known endearingly as Tiger. Despite being a family man, Tiger's roving eye is notorious, his appetite for skirts insatiable. His indiscretions span the spectrum, from innocent flirtations to clandestine affairs, including those with his unsuspecting students. In stark contrast to Tiger's expertise in the field of love is Ponce de Leon Harvey, a seventeen-year-old student grappling with sexual frustration and the complexities of approaching girls. His interests primarily lie in his enticing English substitute teacher, Miss Betty Smith, who herself is wrestling with her own sexual frustrations since leaving her last relationship thirteen months prior. As Miss Smith steps into the whirlwind of Oceanfront High, a sinister shadow descends over the school. The discovery of a female student, Jill Fairbunn, murdered in the boys' lavatory sends shockwaves through the school. The grim murder investigation, led by Police Captain Sam Surcher amidst hindrances from Chief John Poldaski, unveils a chilling pattern: a serial killer targeting female students. As the body count rises, the once vibrant school corridors grow darker with fear, and it becomes clear that the killer is closer than one might think. Beneath the facade of sexual liberation and high school drama, lies a twisted tale of desire, betrayal, and murder. As the truth slowly unravels, the hunt for monogamy turns bloody, revealing a deadly game where no one is safe.
