Summary: One of the greats!
Review: Rating: 5-"This is a special rating for bad films that are fun to watch. Because they are inherently difficult to rate, they receive 5's because there is much that is terrible about them, but much that is often unintentionally amusing as well. Or they can be bad films made to be bad or camp. They may have intentional merits, also. Everyone should stay away except for connoisseurs of enjoyably bad films."At various times good, bad, enjoyable and irritating, Class of Nuke 'Em High is a grade C film that was intentionally made to be a grade C film. The plot concerns a nuclear power plant that's run by a whole team of Homer Simpsons. Not only are they having periodic mini-disasters, but one of the employees has been growing marijuana in a restricted outside area and selling it to kids at the local high school, which is only a quarter mile down the road. The high school kids are exposed to nuclear waste both through the marijuana and through a water supply contamination, and it turns some of them into pulsating radioactive superheroes, disintegrates others, and for the former honor society, it turned them into an overacting group of Mad Max rejects. There is one scene in the movie which is especially bad where supposed actor, Brett Weston, playing a corpse gets gang raped by a bunch of covermounters and can distinctively be seen smiling as he recieves wave after wave of punishment.
A lot of Nuke 'Em High is supposed to be funny, and much of it is. Some of the stuff that's supposed to be funny is simply irritating-this goes for the Mad Max rejects most of the time. Movies like this tend to work better when it's not so obvious that they are trying to spoof genres. When they are trying, it has to be extremely funny in order to work. When they aren't trying-when the filmmakers are trying to make a decent film given their budget, and it still comes out bad, the little unintentionally funny bits are enjoyable. It's the difference of laughing at a faux pas as opposed to watching a bad comedian tell a cheesy joke. The nuclear plant setting, with a wonderfully fake looking matte painting for exterior shots, is unfortunately underused-the plant employee characters were enjoyable, funny and there was a lot more potential for them. Several other auxiliary characters should have been used more, also, but the two goody-two-shoe protagonists are well cast and do an admirable job. Classified as horror, Nuke 'Em High doesn't even approach that genre for a large chunk of the first half. That's too bad because it works best when it's violent. The scene with the old lady carrying groceries, the alleyway brawl, the coup d'etat in the principles office, the bathroom fight scene, etc. are all among this films best. Recommendation: Overall, Nuke 'Em High is a mixed bag, and my evaluation while I was watching it continually vacillated between "bad bad" and "good bad." Troma films fans are bound to enjoy this to some extent, although most fans are more than likely already familiar with this Troma staple. Other than Troma fans, approach this film only if you enjoy cheesy B and C movies. It's not the best "turkey," but it is tasty enough for Thanksgiving.

Summary: Sick, sick, sick
Review: The fumes coming from a chemical plant seep into the nearby high school, turning the preppies into delinquents and the goody two shoes into mutants. Almost completely repulsive, this film is good when it's serious but the mixture of comedy, sexual appeal, and low brow horror is not very entertaining. The makers of this film just don't understand that a good movie doesn't always have to be sick to be sexy, or scary for that matter. Or funny. Too many gross-out factors and not enough emphasis on the actual CLASS.

Summary: stick with the video...its far better
Review: This DVD fails to deliver by a long shot....it was supposed to include all the deleted scenes, yet the movie was supposed to have a scene where someone is being puched down the throat, this was present in the video but not in the dvd. The picture is ok and you get some bonus material. The menu features tend to get irritating after a while with a repetitive song which keeps ringing in your ears for the rest of the day. The movie deserves 4 stars but the dvd only gets 2. Stay way clear of this one.

Summary: low budget bliss
Review: this film is abouta guy who works at a nuclear power plant in security and on the side he deals drugs.well,the marijauna he sells the local punks becomes contaminated with nuclear waste and weird stuff galore!nobody anyone has ever heard of plays in tromaville.keep the kids in the next state when you watch this.it has abselutely nothing educational in it whatsoever.it is set in the same place as the toxic waste avenger but is way way better.only those with a dark sense of humor will be able to handle the borderline obscene happenings here.there are hot and cold runnung bimbos all through it but they are all ugly.million dollar boobies with a food stamp face.2 chicks lose thier shirts.this is the epitome of all low budget horror films.

Summary: This campy, fun film sums up the 80's with a... BANG!
Review: This is a film only for those whom truly enjoy bad film-making, even worse acting, and off the wall characters. ...CLASS OF NUKE EM HIGH is without a doubt a film that summarizes the cliches, cliques, and comic tastes of the 80's, makes the viewer laugh, want to go to the porcealan thrown, and very happy all in the same frame. A gore masterpiece in the genre of horror-comedies, this film is the second best in this genre... I will remember this film for many years to come. Oh, and yes, it is a better movie than any Toxie film. B-bye.

Summary: CLASS OF NUKE 'EM HIGH is a Troma-tizing Classic!
Review: This is one of the best films out of the Troma Film Library, next to the "Toxic Avenger" of course! The story is about a nuclear power plant that is leaking radiation onto the nearby high school, and turning it's students into the opposites of what they are. Nerds turn into psycho's, preps turn into perverts, and a teen gives birth to a mutant slug that falls into toxic waste and then turns into a giant monster that stalks the high school halls. Sound complicated? It's not. Just pick this one up, you might be surprised. The acting and special effects may seem cheesy, but it's all in good fun.

Summary: AT LEAST WATCH IT TO SEE THE "CRETINS"
Review: This movie is great. The best part about it is this crazy gang called the "Cretins." One of them is a cross dresser and one of them has like 5 crazy nose rings and hits people with a bone. The bone hitting factor alone is enough to make this a classic.

Summary: Enjoyable Troma Trash.
Review: Though i still think " The Toxic Avenger" is the best Troma movie, this is a highly entertaining effort. It's a mix of Science Fiction, Horror and satire about a High School in Toxie's town " Tromaville" that is located near a nuclear power plant that springs a leak and turns some of the students into Maniacal criminals and sometimes into nuclear creatures. Preety farfectched and poorly acted, but this is a fun movie that is not for those with weak stomachs. Similar movies recommended: The Toxic Avenger, C.H.U.D., Nightmare City, Scanners, Slugs, and Stephen King's The Stand.

Summary: The Funniest Movie I've Ever Seen!
Review: Troma strikes again! This film is so funny you will have tears running out of your eyes. This film must define B movie! If you liked The Toxic Avenger, this is even better. The sequels are funny too but aren't as good as this classic. Fans of toilet humor will die during this. The best characters are the Cretins gang running amok in the high school, selling weed grown in the nuclear plant which is only a half a mile away. The call the weed an atomic high! The funniest thing about this gang is the fact that they used to be the Honor society. It don't get much better than this.
