Class of Nuke 'Em High

The Class of Nuke 'Em High (1986) (known as "Atomic High School" in countries other than America and the United Kingdom) was the second film made by cult classic B-movie production group Troma Pictures. It was directed by Richard Haines[?] and Lloyd Kaufman[?].

The film, which spawned four sequels, 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 theThree Rs[?]: Reading, 'Riting, and Radiation.
