All of these jokes are fairly funny at first, but as the characters continually fall back on them, they grow tired very quickly. Leigh Whannell plays Doug, the socially inept teacher who has the annoying habit of telling people to stop doing something that theyвЂ™re not doing, like telling the group to вЂShushвЂќ when theyвЂ™re absolutely silent. McBrayer plays Tracy, the repressed homosexual that believes heвЂ™s fooling everyone into thinking heвЂ™s straight, when in actuality heвЂ™s about as gay as they come. As played by Pill, WadeвЂ™s girlfriend, Lucy, is the impossibly perky and forever enthusiastic teacher who fervently believes that things will work out in the end. Wilson plays gym teacher Wade, who has a tic that makes it very hard for him to say the words вЂњDual Wheel WellвЂќ. WHen he arrives for his firsr day of work, Cooties breaks out all of the stereotypical character roles that it can muster. One of the funniest bits in the film is the name of the opus heвЂ™s writing, which is a horror story that takes place on a ship that he calls вЂњKeel Them AllвЂќ. Wood plays Clint, a failed novelist who returns to the town he grew up in (Fort Chicken), to become a substitute teacher at the same school he went to as a child. But there arenвЂ™t any children left to chew on, the only people left are the teachers who find themselves unable to escape the school thatвЂ™s now surrounded by a group of 10 year old cannibals trying to eat them! And then they go after other kids, spreading the virus across the whole schoolyard until every kid in the school is a creature looking for flesh to consume. After eating them, she falls ill and ends up turning into a flesh eating monster! Making matters worse, she goes after some bullies that were taunting her earlier, turning them into flesh eaters as well. For the most part it is, but itвЂ™s flawed, and that hurts, because it seemed to have all the necessary ingredients to succeed.ДЄ young girl sits down to eat her school lunch which consists of the usual fare, fruit, milk and some really messed up looking chicken nuggets. Featuring a cast that includes Elijah Wood, Rainn Wilson, Alison Pill and Leigh Whannell, Cooties sounded like a it was gonna be a lot of fun.

An unlikely hero must lead a motley band of teachers in the fight of their lives.ДЄ nice, normal day at the local elementary school turns into a nightmarish fight between a group of teachers, and their students who have turned into flesh hungry monsters in Cooties, a horror/comedy film thatвЂ™s been on my radar for over a year now.

Synopsis: A mysterious virus hits an isolated elementary school, transforming the kids into a feral swarm of mass savages.
