Horror movie
Some kids trapped in a school or hospital. Something evil growing in the basement in a glass tube. For some reason I remember it being scary. The only other fact I can think of is that Alice Cooper made a cameo. He stabbed someone to death wfith the forks of a bicycle or something. Anyone think of a name? I wanted to see if I still thought it was scary.
In marriage there is always one person right. And the other one is the husband.
Does this movie end with the kids coming out of the school, and there are yellow body bags scattered everywhere?
I used to pass a Jr. High that was closed, so they'd film a lot of stuff there (Fast Times & Ridgemong High, Better off Dead, and others). One day as I was walking past the school and I saw dozens of body bags scattered around. There may have been ambulances and white vans and stuff as well. It took a second to notice the film crew.
Years later I remember seeing a horror movie on TV, where there was something evil in the basement. I'd keep flipping back to it, and it ended with that body bag scene I had seen on my way home.
I have no idea what the name of the movie was.
(I had a similiar experience when I worked at the zoo. There was supposed to be a roller coaster horror movie that delayed our opening of the zoo. I was checking in school groups, so I moved them out of the way. About five years later, after I'd moved to KY, I saw a fake commercial thingy for a roller coaster that killed people on Comedy Central. I noticed it was filmed at the L.A. Zoo. Then, I saw kids in the background, and myself herding them along.)

I guess Leisher IMDB'd Alice Cooper and checked his movie bio?
I did the same with the school, but it only lists the two movies I mentioned earlier.
I used to live about 4 blocks north, 1 block west of there.

Definately Prince of Darkness. I bought the DVD a few months ago.
It was a church, the kids were PhD physicist candidates, the thing in the glass tube in the basement was Satan, and people from the future were sending tachyon-beamed warnings into their heads while they dreamed.

A priest carrying a mysterious key dies before he's able to meet with an Archbishop, and the key ends up in the possession of Father Loomis (Donald Pleasance—Halloween) who discovers the key goes to a door in an abandoned church that has served as a location for…something. A cylinder with a vile, green swirling liquid is in the basement along with an ancient book that has been erased and written over a number of times. Loomis then enlists the aid of Professor Birac (Victor Wong—Tremors, Big Trouble In Little China) to bring a team of scientists to the church for a weekend to study the cylinder. It turns out that the cylinder is locked from the inside (this is never a good thing) and whatever happens to be inside it seems to be gaining energy (also never a good thing). On top of that, various homeless persons, led by Alice Cooper (really not a good thing), begin gathering outside the church and violently preventing anyone from leaving. (For those of you who remember the TV show "Riptide" you will be particularly satisfied by one such scene.) Those trapped inside begin to unravel the secrets kept by the Brotherhood of Sleep: the Bible was lie a concocted by the church to placate the masses, and the thing inside the cylinder is an awakening son of Satan who, once released, will bring Anti-God into our world to "bring darkness instead of light." There's a bunch of other fun stuff in regards to zombies, flesh-eating bugs, a bizarre recurring dream sequence, and a joke about a witch doctor, but I won't spoil it here. Saying too much more spoils what Carpenter has in store for you.
To say that John Carpenter is on top of his game here is a bit of an understatement. Prince of Darkness is a rather underappreciated film, but those whom I've forced to watch it have failed to sleep that night.
