Trivia

Song in Return to Nuke 'Em High Volume 1 (2013) - Lyrics - The Tiger Lillies - Thousand Violins - - - I'm calling out but no one will be hearing - I'm laughing but I cannot be heard - I'm crying but no one will be drying - These tears that fall - - So how do we ever face a thousand violins - And how do we ever even start to begin - - It's raining without a sign of stopping - It's sunny but no-one's getting warm - In Heaven the harps have all been broken - And these tears they fall - - So how do we ever face a thousand violins - And how do we ever even start to begin - - All through the days now faded away - One thought remains one thought does stay - It haunts me still it will remain - I'm lost in wonder and I hear again - - Tell me how do we ever face a thousand violins - And how do we ever even start to begin - Tell me how do we ever face a thousand violins - Tell me how do we ever even start to begin - Thousand violins.

Return to Nuke 'Em High Volume 1: Erm.....no

Almost 30yrs since the first Nuke Em High movie and almost 20yrs since the last one, Lloyd Kaufman returns in a reboot to Troma's second most famous franchise.

Overhauling the plot altogether (Not that there really was one) it tells the story of two girls who fall in love and have to combat an evil corporation and a genetically modified glee club.

So all these years later what are the differences? Well it's the same gore, nudity and 3rd grade humor. If you want fart jokes and ridiculous stereotypes this will still appeal.

What's different is they've almost entirely lost the 80's theme (Which was the heart and soul of the Troma universe), they've lost the recurring cast and any connection to previous movies.

So essentially this has thrown aside the universe they have spent 30yrs building and starts afresh with a clean slate. Only thing is they used that clean slate to make the same old garbage for the most part.

Crude, offensive, dumb, childish and catering to the lowest possible denominator.

The Good:

Stan Lee's narration

The Bad:

Lloyd Kaufman

Beyond childish humor

Cringe inducing

Things I Learnt From This Movie:

All you need is lobe

Lemmy should have been President

The food network is sexy

Prince alberts are not suitable high school attire

Tuna Town doesn't sound appealing

Marijuana causes spontaneous combustion
