Blu-ray Review – Class of Nuke ‘Em High 3: The Good, the Bad and the Subhumanoid

Who knew there was such a demand for "Class of Nuke 'Em High" sequels? Troma Entertainment, never a film studio to let anything die a peaceful death, returns to the world of mutant madness with 1994's "Class of Nuke 'Em High 3: The Good, The Bad and the Subhumanoid." Making a final push to make this premise profitable, Troma waters down their traditional serving of pure excess, trying to find a narrative path that welcomes B-movie chaos and dramatic interests, going so far as to use a William Shakespeare play ("The Comedy of Errors") for inspiration. It's an ambitious move, and one that manages to find a sense of stability to the franchise, but nothing in the Troma universe remains still for long. "The Good, The Bad and the Subhumanoid" quickly degenerates into noisy bits of comedy and horror, while a host of storytelling choices render the picture tiring, especially with a run time that's a good 30 minutes longer than it needs to be.
