Description: The 1975 film “High School Lynching” offers a unique and unforgettable viewing experience. It serves as a compelling character study, focusing on female relationships and the aftermath of a teenage suicide attempt. While the synopsis only briefly touches on a 15-minute segment, the film delves much deeper. In some ways, it feels reminiscent of an after-school special, which starkly contrasts with its jarring exploitation elements. The narrative could have benefited from fully committing to either the character-driven aspects or the exploitation/torture angle, as it currently feels somewhat uneven yet undeniably engaging. This blend creates a one-of-a-kind story that leaves a lasting impression. Finding subtitles for this film required significant effort, but it was worth revisiting the consistent and reliable genre of Roman Pornos. The film is also known by alternate titles such as “Cruel High School Girl: Sex Lynch” and “Zankoku: Jokôsei marusei rinchi.”
