Every Teacher in School Wanted to Flunk Her ... But Nobody Dared!


A broken heart sends a teenage temptress on the road to prostitution and murder in this surprisingly gritty exploitation drama. Kim (Jill Lansing) is a high school senior with a bad attitude that just gets worse after her boyfriend Kevin (Stuart Taylor) breaks up with her and starts dating Annette (Tammy Taylor), a snooty rich girl. Kim's grades are poor and her financial situation is precarious, so she decides to start using her body to get what she wants. Kim begins improving her marks when she seduces her history teacher, Mr. Donaldson (John Grant), and then blackmails him into giving her an A, following suit with her other male instructors. Meanwhile, Kim buys a new car after partnering with Tony (Al Mannino), a sleazy low-level pimp and drug dealer who quickly has her turning tricks all over town. After establishing herself as a call girl, Kim breaks ties with Tony and starts working with Lance (Garth Howard), a smooth mafia-connected gangster who promises to introducer to a classier clientele. When a customer gets rough with her, Kim stabs him to death with an ice pick, and Lance realizes Kim has what it takes to be a hired killer. Malibu High was the final directorial credit for veteran director Irvin Berwick.


High school student Kim Bentley (Jill Lansing) is having a tough time of things at the moment, she has been dumped by her boyfriend Kevin (Stuart Taylor) for rich girl Annette (Tammy Taylor), her grades are slipping and she has no money, and all her mother (Phyllis Benson) seems to care about is cleaning. Kim tells her best friend Lucy (Katie Johnson) that the nonsense ends today. Kim's been feeling sorry for herself ever since her father hanged himself. She begins working for Tony the pimp (Alex Mann) and thing start to look good for her, new clothes, new car and good grades. Annette begins to hate Kim even more and Kevin becomes jealous. Kim then meets Lance (Garth Howard) who frees her from turning tricks in a beat up old van which leads her to better clothes and nicer cars. Prostitution isn't the worst of it as Kim is forced to kill a man in self defense when he tries to have his way with her being tied up. Kim becomes a hit woman and after murdering several people, she herself is killed on a deserted beach.
