Class of Nuke ’Em High

In the sleepy stretch of Tromaville, a nuclear power plant looms just beyond the fences of a suburban high school, its humming reactors a constant undercurrent to teenage life. The proximity creates a peculiar atmosphere where the ordinary hallways of lockers and lockers clash with the invisible threat of radiation, turning the campus into a place that feels both familiar and unnervingly volatile. The town’s uneasy acceptance of the plant’s presence fuses with the school’s routine, giving the setting a greasy, 80‑shades‑of‑green aesthetic that teeters between earnest coming‑of‑age and absurd, science‑fiction chaos.

Among the students, Warren navigates the pressures of exams and friendships while trying to keep a cool head amid the growing buzz of a mysterious street drug. Chrissy Murphy balances her ambitions with an earnest desire to belong, often acting as the voice of reason when the group’s curiosity runs wild. Their charismatic, reckless friend Eddie Harold is the catalyst who introduces the questionable supply, nudging the trio toward choices that hint at consequences far beyond teenage mischief. Their interactions are a blend of snarky banter, tentative romance, and the reckless optimism that defines a generation on the brink of something far stranger than any senior prank.

Overseeing this uneasy tableau is Mr. Paley, the plant’s owner whose insistence on keeping the facility running adds an undercurrent of corporate inertia to the unfolding drama. Meanwhile, the school’s notorious “Cretins” linger on the edge of the narrative, a ragtag gang whose reputation precedes them. Together, these forces suggest that the harmless glow of fluorescent lights might soon be eclipsed by a pulse of mutating energy, setting the stage for a wild, tongue‑in‑cheek clash of teenage rebellion and radioactive mayhem.
