Class of Nuke 'Em High

1986

The film follows the events that unfold at Tromaville High School in New Jersey, which is conveniently located next to a nuclear power plant. An accident at the nuclear plant is covered up by plant owner Mr Paley who does not want the facility shut down by the safety commission.

Some time later, Chrissy discovers that she is pregnant, and spits a little monster into a nearby toilet.

The Cretins, expelled from the school and cut off from their customer base, assault the principal and forces him to use the school's Radiation Alarm to cause an evacuation, letting the Cretins bar the building and occupy it. Capturing Chrissy as bait for Warren, the leader of the gang holds her hostage in th
