Dead Man on Campus Movie
The eccentric teenage comedy revolves around a young guy from Indiana, Josh Miller (Tom Everett Scott), who enters medical college. His roommate is Cooper Frederickson (Mark-Paul Gosselaar), a carefree, spoiled rich kid who skips classes and is merely concerned with partying, drug use and girls. A diligent and responsible student, Josh refuses to partake in Cooper's parties but he eventually succumbs his urging. He starts drinking, smoking dope and has a one-night stand with his coed Rachel Gillmore (Poppy Montgomery). After failing his exams, he comes to realize that he will be soon flunked out of college for his obscene behavior and negligent attitude toward his studies. But the buddies soon discover that any student whose roommate dies or commits suicide will automatically get straight A's. After studying each student's personal history, they pick the perfect candidate, depressed Clifford O'Malley (Lochlyn Munro), and try to urge him to commit suicide.
