Teaching Mrs. Tingle DVD Summary
After the success of
Scream
,
I Know What You Did Last Summer
, and television's
Dawson's Creek
, screenwriter
Kevin Williamson
made his directorial debut with this
screwball thriller
in which an honor roll student and two friends kidnap their witchy teacher.
Although her single mom (
Lesley Ann Warren
), a waitress, struggles to make ends meet, aspiring writer
Leigh Ann Watson
(
Katie Holmes
) works hard, avoids sexual temptation, and focuses on her studies.
She hopes to make valedictorian and earn a scholarship to college -- and get away from her dead-end hometown.
As her senior year draws to a close, however, she's dogged by harsh grades from her vituperative history instructor,
Mrs.
Tingle
(
Helen Mirren
).
On the same day she finds out that she's still in second place behind fellow valedictory candidate
Mary Beth Carter
(
Liz Stauber
),
Leigh Ann
must endure
Mrs.
Tingle
's fierce criticism of the final project into which she's poured her heart.
After commiserating with her best friend, aspiring actress
Jo Lynn Jordan
(
Marisa Coughlan
), and hunky stoner
Luke Churner
(
Barry Watson
),
Leigh Ann
runs even further afoul of
Mrs.
Tingle
;
Luke
stashes an advance copy of the teacher's final exam in
Leigh Ann
's backpack and
Tingle
discovers it, promising to turn
Leigh Ann
in for cheating and ruin her chances of a better life.
When the three teens turn up at
Tingle
's house to try to reason with her,
Luke
and
Jo Lynn
manage to accidentally kidnap
Mrs.
Tingle
.
Soon the three students are keeping their teacher a prisoner, trying to figure out how to blackmail her into silence while maintaining the illusion that nothing strange is going on.
Teaching Mrs.
Tingle
was filmed under the name "Killing Mrs.
Tingle," but the title was changed after a rash of real-life high school killing sprees made the headlines.
