CLASS OF NUKE 'EM HIGH PART II: SUBHUMANOID MELTDOWN is a Troma comedy with a great title and a rubbish execution. It has virtually nothing to do with the original movie, which was kind of fun, but instead features a mad scientist bent on making artificial 'subhumanoids' which occasionally go into meltdown. Oh, and at the climax a giant monster squirrel attacks, animated via a rubbish puppet monster. This is a silly mish-mash of ideas masquerading as a movie, featuring a naked artificial woman and a guy with an annoying highly-pitched voice. Everything about it is terrible, including the jokes.
... View MoreYou've got to be a die-hard fan to embrace this one. Sounds corny? It's meant to be goofy. The class of nuke 'em high is back, and this time they're in college! I remember watched this as a kid, I am thankful for that. This is a great film with a tone reminiscent of Doctor Detroit. If you love silly, this should be a rewarding experience for you. Granted, most supporting characters were one-dimensional. There's something very nostalgic about it. I urge you to see it with an open mind. It will either surprise or disappoint you, depending on what your expectations are. I laughed and was moved and all of that good stuff. It gets 7 out of 10 from me.
... View Moreholy cheesefest. I'm sorry but I have to quickly comment on another reviewers review because it seemed odd to me and it is the main review showing when you look at this movie. Its by Aaron1347 or something like that, he says he didn't like the first class of nuke em high...so then why did you watch the sequel? people like that bother me. He also says that he liked it more than the first but its not good enough to make him want to watch the third one...that doesn't make any sense. Anyways, this movie is just downright ridiculous. It is the peak of troma's stupidity. Everything in this movie seems to be put there just for the sake of being dumb and outrageous. I found myself shaking my head more than laughing but it was still a fun ride. The characters are all over the top comic book types just made for comedies sake. Pointing out flaws in a movie that is pretty much just one big flaw is kind of redundant but personally the one thing I would have taken out of this schlock fest was the weird fat guy who talked with a really intentionally fake, annoying high pitched voice. I nearly fast forwarded through any scene with him in it. The movie is filled with blood, goo, hilarity, and did I mention stupidity? There is also a healthy heaping of nudity because in a school where there is limited locked space it just makes sense that there would also be limited clothing. just turn your brain off for an hour and half and enjoy yourself. I liked it more than the first one in the series and the third one is pretty much the same as this one.
... View MoreBrick Bronsky stars as an intellectual muscle man who ends up protecting the girl of his dreams (Translated the only girl who will sleep with him) from corporation lackeys as well as a group of fat bikers who dominate the college. Oh and there are subhumanoids who are created and melt down with little of explanation, although the professor(Lisa Gaye) who sports a Marge Simpson haircut has a cure and being that Bronsky's girlfriend is a subhumanoid, he wants the cure. Of course education takes a backseat to non-stop bizarre set-pieces. Because last month was Halloween I did a non-stop binge on horror movies (AKA movies found in my horror section)and I saw this with the first. The first movie was made with gross out humor but also with restraint that things never got too out of control. Not so here, as Class Of Nukem High II is so bizarre and surreal that it's a non-stop assault on not only your senses but also your common sense and your physical being in general. You will not find a more weird film and yet I admit some of this went a long way, just not enough to be worth putting money down on. Reviewing this movie is hard because it's meant to be bizarre and there is tons of imagination and moments where the humor works but it's just so weird. And my taste in movies is hardly mainstream.** Out of 4-(Fair)
