Class of 1984

Abysmal exploitation film begins somewhere in the area of The Blackboard Jungle (but a bit deeper into the jungle: every square inch of Abraham Lincoln High has been spray-painted with graffiti, and metal-detectors have been installed at the entrances to ensure that the students leave their guns and switchblades at home) and ends somewhere on the far side of Straw Dogs. Mark Lester, the director, pays tribute to himself, perhaps in anticipation that no one else will, by including a televised clip of his also abysmal Bobbie Jo and the Outlaw. With Perry King and Timothy Van Patten. 1982.
