Watch Class of Nuke 'Em High 2: Subhumanoid Meltdown

Class of Nuke 'Em High 2: Subhumanoid Meltdown is a science fiction comedy horror film released in 1991 as the second installment in the Class of Nuke 'Em High series. Directed by Eric Louzil and starring Brick Bronsky, Lisa Gaye, and Leesa Rowland, the movie takes place in Tromaville, a small New Jersey town that is home to the Tromaville Institute of Technology. The institute is conducting experiments on rodents, trying to create intelligent creatures, but the experiments inadvertently create a monstrous subhumanoid race that escapes from the lab, wreaking havoc on the campus and the town.

The movie starts with events that happened in the previous movie, in which the town was destroyed by a nuclear power plant run by the corrupt Tromaville Institute of Technology. A new nuclear reactor has been built in its place, which is responsible for creating the subhumanoids, who are portrayed as grotesque mutants with weird abilities. The subhumanoids have a particular weakness for a glowing green kind of sludge that is being used as a biohazardous waste disposal.

The protagonist, Roger Smith (Bronsky), is a nerdy student at the Tromaville Institute of Technology, whose life takes a surprising turn when he accidentally ingests some of the glowing green sludge. He begins to develop superhuman strength, which he uses in his battle against the subhumanoids, who have started to take over the institute. Along with his love interest Victoria (Rowland) and an experienced state trooper (Gaye), Smith sets out to save the day.

The movie is filled with slapstick comedy, cheesy special effects, and over-the-top violence. The subhumanoids are particularly notable, with their grotesque appearance and various superhuman abilities. One subhumanoid has eyes that glow in the dark, while another has inflatable breasts that it uses as a weapon. It is all reminiscent of a classic B-grade science fiction film, but with a twist of humor that makes it quite entertaining.

Despite being a low-budget movie, the production values are surprisingly good. The sets and props are all well-designed, and the soundtrack is catchy and memorable. The acting is campy, but that is part of the movie's charm. Audiences looking for a serious horror film should look elsewhere, but those in search of a good laugh will find plenty to enjoy.

Although it is a sequel, Class of Nuke 'Em High 2: Subhumanoid Meltdown is standalone, and audiences do not need to have seen the previous movie to enjoy it fully. The movie has enough references to the earlier movie to make it feel like a part of the same series without relying on its story or characters.

In conclusion, Class of Nuke 'Em High 2: Subhumanoid Meltdown is a fun and lighthearted movie that does not take itself seriously. It has everything audience would expect from a cheesy horror-comedy, from the over-the-top gore to the B-grade special effects. Those who enjoy cult movies will likely love Class of Nuke 'Em High 2. However, it is not for everyone, as the humor and violence may be too ridiculous for some viewers' taste.

Class of Nuke 'Em High 2: Subhumanoid Meltdown is a 1991 comedy with a runtime of 1 hour and 40 minutes. It has received mostly poor reviews from critics and viewers, who have given it an IMDb score of 4.4.
