Sex and drugs will savagely mutate your reproductive organs.

If you've never had the distinct pleasure of viewing anything produced or released by demented cult favorites Troma, perhaps it's time to break out of your candy-coated shell and feast your virginal eyes on something salty, something that isn't ready and willing to accept its prestigious major award. The twisted 1986 gore comedy Class of Nuke 'Em High is probably the best place to begin your journey, a grue-entrenched appetizer before the stomach-churning main course. Directed by celluloid lunatics Richard W. Haines, Llloyd Kaufman, and Michael Herz, this gleefully tasteless salute to teenage misanthropy violently spins the high school comedy genre on its misshapen head, spits in its bulging eye, and shreds its puckering anus into unrecognizable slivers of expired luncheon meat. Troma's familiar nuclear theme is present and accounted for, as is the company's penchant for inky black humor, over-the-top mayhem, and gratuitous female nudity. You'd be hard pressed to locate a better, more cohesively sound "bad movie" anywhere on the planet. Modern-day classics are rarely this unapologetically foul.
