Considering this was an eighties exploitation film I was surprised to see that it is still relevant today. The problems in our schools haven't changed in twenty years. I found the political satire truly fascinating and the fear of a school run by a gang of drug dealers and not the authorities that should have been running it a genuine nightmare. The problem is that there are many unbelievable and questionable factors associated with the production. This is entertaining mostly because it shows that nothing changes (except special effects) in a stark way. Deserves a graphic disturbing remake now!
