- Alternate versionsAlso available in an unrated "director's cut".

Featured review
Only in Troma films one gets to see a high school located next to a nuclear power plant and
Students pick leaves from a radioactive marijuana plant located in the yard of the nuclear plant.
I first saw this in the late 80s on a vhs n found the creature to b a cheap copy of Alien.
Was never a fan of Troma movies in the late 80s cos they were more gross than gory.
Revisited it recently.
Their earlier effort Toxic Avenger is far superior to this one.
