- Synopsis:
Christine (Phoebe Cates), a student at an exclusive all-girls private school, is in love with Jim (Matthew Modine), who attends an academy for boys nearby. Christine's arch rival Jordan (Betsy Russell) also has her eye on Jim, and she is willing to do whatever she can to steal him away. Jim's uber-slob buddy Bubba (Michael Zorek) is going with Betsy (Kathleen Wilhoite), Christine's cynical friend, though he would probably be unfaithful if any other woman were willing to get near him. Bubba and his pals sneak into the girls' school dressed in drag in hopes of reaching the Promised Land (better known as the women's shower room), while Christine and Jim run away together for the weekend, though their escapade isn't as romantic as they had hoped. - Actors:

Beyond Belief! - Private School review by JS
This is something of a cult film due to the presence in it of Phoebe Cates. However...to say the film is terrible is to do the word terrible a gross injustice. How anyone could possibly make such utter trash beggars belief, though I guess its hard to stop laughing at the utter appallingness of the whole thing as you watch it. Needs to be seen to be believed!
