History WesternAnimation / HairHigh

* BeehiveHairdo: A lot of female characters sport gravity defying hair-dos as part of its '50s-'60s motif.

* RagingStiffie: Rod gives Zip one in the form of an aphrodisiac disguised as a tonic so he could have the courage to ask Darlene out for the prom. After drinking the whole thing, he began humping at just about everyone and every''thing''.

* UnreliableNarrator: The young couple have their reservations about how true the story [=JoJo=] is telling them, and seem to infer that the crazy stuff happening in it may or may not be just [=JoJo=]'s own embellishments. [[spoiler:Though the Cherri and Spud as skeletons part might true.]]

* {{Gorn}}:
** Somewhat. Especially with Mr. Snerz who after choking on a cigarette, he ''coughs up all of his guts on the table''. Then the students, with the help of Spud's knowledge in Biology, attempt to ''hurl it back in'' in the proper order! [[{{Squick}} The image is just as pretty as what you might expect]].
** The aforementioned {{fingore}} scene, where we see Rod graphically tear off Zip's fingernail with a switchblade.

* {{Fingore}}: Rod demonstrates what he'll do to Spud if he falls in love with his girlfriend Cherri by tearing off a fingernail...that turns out to belong to Zip.

* BeehiveHairdo: Some characters as part of its '50s-'60s motif.

* DemBones: [[spoiler:Spud and Cherri (who are apparently undead) return to the following year's prom with their bodies already decomposed. Naturally, everybody is shocked]].

* IsThisThingStillOn: Rod tries to cover the fact that Spud and Cherri [[spoiler:had drowned in the lake (after he butted them off the road) by saying that they moved to Mexico. Come next year's prom when Spud and Cherri, as skeletons, return that night and attempt to reclaim the crown but Rod refused to believe that that's them by saying out loud they [[ExactWords drowned in Echo Lake]] through a microphone]]... Nice.

* DerangedAnimation: As expected of a Billy Plympton cartoon.

* DerangedAnimation: It goes without saying.

* HighSchool: Which gives us...
** HighSchoolDance: Which becomes an important topic with the characters to be nominated prom king or queen.

'''''Hair High''''' is a 2004 animated film by Creator/BillPlympton. Genre-wise, it falls somewhere between [[SlidingScaleOfComedyAndHorror romantic comedy, and horror]], or [[BreadEggsBreadedEggs Horror Romantic Comedy]]... But one thing that can be agreed on is [[WhatDoYouMeanItWasntMadeOnDrugs it's a trip]] what with this being a Plympton work and all.

* MusicalSpoiler: "Balld of Spud and Cherri," which plays as JoJo tells the story, pretty much tells us point blank that they die on their way to prom.

Rod and Cherri rule the school as the prom king and queen, respectively. Spud, the new kid in town, accidentally offends both Cherri and Rod and so is forced to become Cherri's slave. Naturally, [[BelligerentSexualTension they immediately hate each other, but later fall in love]]. However, Rod is not too pleased with this and having already warned Spud beforehand, this could mean trouble.
