Class of Nuke 'Em High
From Free net encyclopedia
The Class of Nuke 'Em High (1986) (known as "Atomic High School" in countries other than America and the United Kingdom) was a film made by cult classic B-movie production group Troma Pictures. It was directed by Richard Haines and Lloyd Kaufman.
The film is about a high school (Tromaville High School) which is conveniently located adjacent to a nuclear power plant. As a matter of cinematic horror convention the power plant is seeping radioactive waste which leads inevitably to rapid and dramatic mutations amongst the student population.
The film is famous for having revitalised the notion of the Three Rs: Reading, 'Riting, and Radiation, and spawned two sequels, 1991's Class of Nuke 'Em High Part II: Subhumanoid Meltdown and 1994's Class of Nuke 'Em High 3: The Good, the Bad and the Subhumanoid.
