Attempts to shock or offend its audience come across as juvenile and pandering. And did I mention all the penis, tit & vagina jokes?Īll which brings me to my own personal problem with the film: I was never able to shake the feeling that everyone involved was trying way too hard to be outrageous. All the necessary ingredients are here: extreme gore, lots of sex, gratuitous nudity, lesbianism, vomiting, penis jokes, tit jokes, vagina jokes, drug use, bizarre characters, references to other Troma films (including a cameo by Toxie), bad taste, animal cruelty, guns, masturbation, heavy-handed satire, punk rockers, more penis, tit & vagina jokes, disgusting behavior, intentionally-amateurish performances, a gratuitous cameo by Motorhead’s Lemmy, dumb slapstick gags, ambitious-but-phony special effects and silly musical numbers. Hence, Return to Nuke ‘Em High is a calculated attempt to appeal the same audience who loved the films from Troma’s glory years. Sometimes, if you wait long enough, the pendulum can swing back your way, making all your old tricks seem new again.
RETURN TO NUKE EM HIGH VOLUME 2 PENIS FULL
Hey, it worked for Meat Loaf, who dropped his bombastic Bat Out of Hell II album a full decade after the rest of the world embraced grunge & rap, and it still sold a gajillion copies. So I suppose Return to Nuke ‘Em High (ominously subtitled “Volume 1”) can be seen as a comeback by Lloyd Kaufman (Troma’s co-founder), who chooses to direct this belated sequel as though nothing has changed, perhaps thinking absence makes the heart grow fonder.
RETURN TO NUKE EM HIGH VOLUME 2 PENIS MOVIE
Along the way, Troma became a brand name among fans of this kind of stuff.īut, like hair metal, Members Only jackets and wine coolers, Troma never actually went away, but the popularity of their sleazy brand of cult movie mayhem faded as fans grew up and moved on to other things. They managed to crank out two bonifide cult classics during this time ( The Toxic Avenger and Class of Nuke ’Em High) which were symbolic of most of their product…low budget splatstick loaded with gore, gross-out gags, nudity, sex, political-incorrectness, outrageous plots and over-the-top characters. Troma Studios’ heyday was during the 80s and early 90s. There are cult films, then there are Troma films, which are really there own little genre. Starring Asta Paredes, Catherine Corcoran, Zac Amico, Vito Trigo, Stan Lee, Judah Friedlander, Lemmy Kilmister, Debbie Rochon.
