Dead Man on Campus Theatrical release poster Directed by Alan Cohn Produced by Gale Anne Hurd Written by Michael Traeger Mike White Starring Mark-Paul Gosselaar Tom Everett Scott Music by Matt Mahaffey Mark Mothersbaugh Cinematography John Thomas Editing by Debra Chiate Distributed by Paramount Pictures Release date(s) 21 August 1998 Running time 96 minutes Country United States Language English Budget $14,000,000 (estimated) Dead Man on Campus is a 1998 comedy starring Mark-Paul Gosselaar and Tom Everett Scott. It centers on the urban legend that a student gets straight As if his or her roommate commits suicide (see pass by catastrophe). Two friends attempt to find a depressed roommate in order to push him over the edge and receive As. To boost ticket sales for this film in the theater, its US release was timed with the start of the new college school year in late August 1998. It is the first film by MTV Films to have an R rating (the first two films had PG-13 ratings). The movie was shot at University of the Pacific in Stockton, California. The Curve, also known as Dead Man's Curve, which came out in the same year, uses a similar plotline. Contents 1 Plot 2 Cast 3 Reception 4 References 5 External links // Plot Two failing university students, Cooper and Josh, find out about an obscure academic rule that states that if a student's roommate commits suicide then the roommates get perfect grades for that semester, regardless of any previous academic standing. They set out to find roommates who are likely to commit suicide. Their first potential roommate, Cliff O'Malley, is more likely to get himself (and any one with him) killed than commit suicide. After Josh and Cooper get him to move in, they eventually kick him out. Next they try Buckley Schrank, a computer geek who thinks Bill Gates wants his brain. After they move Buckley, they try to help push him over the edge. First, Cooper poses as a suicide hotline volunteer, and when Buckley calls, he tells him that he's Bill Gates and wants his brain. Then, Josh and Cooper stock their dorm room with equipment that may assist in a suicide (rope, daggers, prescription drugs). Seeing this, Buckley thinks that they're trying to kill him, and believing that the conspiracy to kill him and steal his brain is real, he runs away. Finally, Josh and Cooper move in Matt Noonan, a moody rock musician who talks about the futility of life. Later Cooper catches him singing show tunes and learns he was voted Mr. Happy in high school, leading them to believe that he is only pretending to be depressed to impress girls and make a name for himself in music. After all the time wasted on trying to find a suicidal person instead of studying, Josh and Cooper become agitated. Josh stands on the edge of a bridge, about to commit suicide himself. Cooper tells Josh he is not a failure and talks him down. When Josh comes down from the bridge he reveals to Cooper that he was faking his suicide attempt so the school wouldn't fail him, and Cooper would look like a hero to his father. The film ends with Josh narrating that he was given an additional semester to improve his grades, in which he saved his scholarship, and that Cooper became a more serious student, but did work summers cleaning toilets for his father's business to learn how to eventually take over.

[1] The New York Times said the film was "predictably dumb", but praised Mark-Paul Gosselaar's performance, saying; "Mr. Gosselaar is so good, however, that his performance as Cooper sometimes overrides the film's adolescent tone."
