Cutting Class is a 1989 horror film directed by Rospo Pallenberg and written by Steve Slavkin. The film was Brad Pitt's first major role.
The plot revolves around the return of Brian Woods, a "problem teen,". He has just been released from a mental hospital; he was committed after the suspicious death of his father, who crashed and died while driving a car with cut brakes. He falls in love with classmate Paula Carson, but the local basketball star Dwight Ingalls (Brad Pitt) is already Paula's boyfriend. Meanwhile, the lecherous school principal also seeks unfortunate Paula's affections. Then horrible murders start happening, with no one certain of the identity of the culprit. The main suspects are Dwight, whose control of his anger has never been perfect, the mysterious Woods, who may not have been fully cured at the sanitarium, and the disgusting principal, who seems to stop at nothing in his attempts to bed Paula.
