Overall: 

With its incredibly slow pacing and uninteresting storyline, Zombie High offers very little in the form of entertainment. Aside from a young Virginia Madsen, there really is no reason to watch this, especially if you go in expecting zombies. Unless you wanna be bored outta your mind, I'd advise skipping this.

When I think "Zombie High" I think of a fun flick with a group of high school students taking on their zombified classmates in an epic battle on school grounds. Instead, what we’re actually given is a excruciatingly dull movie about lobotomized students becoming successful in life (WTF??). That’s essentially the story for the misleading "Zombie High," as we follow a young Virginia Madsen who accepts a scholarship at a prestigious boarding school where she notices something amiss with her fellow classmates.

Things are especially dubious when one of her peers is a rebellious outspoken sonuva bitch one minute, then an emotionless creeper the next. Virginia eventually discovers that the students are undergoing brain surgery against their will and the school’s elder staff are benefiting from it. Apparently they extract certain parts of the brain and mix it with blood to create a means of eternal life. Now Virginia must find a way outta the school before she too becomes yet another science experiment.
