Just watched Class of Nuke Em High directed by Lloyd Kaufman. This movie oozes 1980's horror cheese. It has every 1980s trope on full display. Nuclear fears, punk culture, nerd stereotypes, drug panic, and more. The special effects, cheesy synth track and sound effects tracks really set a fun mood. If you enjoy Troma movies like Toxic Avenger ...
Coming off the heels of The Toxic Avenger, Class of Nuke 'Em High also tackles nuclear energy. This one leans more into the idea of "science gone wrong" crossed with the elite idiots responsible who are miserably trying to save face. Plus the fact that this came out right after what happened in Chernobyl, almost gives it an eerie vibe to it all.
At the beginning of the first Film, an English teacher gets her class' attention by shouting shut up really loud. Body Horror: Mutated weed ends up mutating people in horrific ways. Chekhov's Gun: The laser in the school's lab is used in the first film's climax to kill a mutant and destroy the school.
