Change of Pace: Help Bill remember a B-Movie title
OK, a break for the moment from our normal high-minded seriousness here at IndustrialBlog, such as whether the Cubs last season executed the worse choke in human history, or was it the French at Agincourt?
Anyway, the movie I'm forgetting ... It was dumb, like any good B-movie. The plot centered around a killer who stalks the set of a B-movie, killing one character after another ... anyone have a clue?
I'm drawing a total blank. It seemed to me that the movie-inside-the-movie was a toxic-avenger kind of thing, but I may have forgotten that. I can't remember the name of any actors in it, so I can't use IMDB.
Any help would be appreciated.
UDDATE: OK, I caught a break. I went to IMDB and clicked on the director who did The Toxic Avenger. And I found the movie. It's Terror Firmer. It's about a movie crew making the next Toxic Avenger movie when a killer stalks the set and starts killing folks. It's a remarkably demented movie.
Thanks to Harry and Chris for jogging my memory.

Plot Summary for
Return to Horror High (1987)
A few years ago, a mysterious serial-killer caused panic on Crippen High School. The killer was never caught. A movie company, Cosmic Pictures, has decided to make a feature movie about these events - on location, at the now abandoned school. Since members of cast and crew disappear without a trace, it seems as if history is repeating itself...
And God! Was that series awful.
CTL: It's not Scream 3.
I know I've been vague.
I'll try to see if I can be more specific.
Have you seen the movie?
I never saw Toxic Avenger.
