Teuflische Klasse: Directed by Albert Pyun. With John Stockwell, J. Eddie Peck, Carey Lowell, Bradford Bancroft. A rebel without a cause at an elite uptight High School discovers some of his classmates have formed an even more elite clique hell-bent on ridding the school of what they deem to be its undesirables because of ethnicity, politics, etc.

“I wish I didnu0026#39;t have to write 10 lines for inclusion on IMDb, because there isnu0026#39;t too much to say about this movie EXCEPT that I really liked it at the time – it is a good example of mid-80u0026#39;s style – and the actors are very good, some have more recently become well known: John Stockwell is a noted Director now (u0026quot;Blue Crushu0026quot;), and he was u0026#39;Cougaru0026#39; in u0026quot;Top Gunu0026quot; the same year, 1986. Carey Lowell, Mrs. Richard Gere, went on to u0026quot;Law u0026amp; Orderu0026quot; after a role in a bad James Bond movie. So why no DVD??? It was on VHS in the late 80u0026#39;s. One thing I do remember at the time, when Siskel u0026amp; Ebert reviewed it they noted a strange homo-erotic overtone in many scenes (like in the school gymu0026#39;s locker room). Of course, you could say that about the Top Gun locker room scenes, also. But they had a point, and I think one reason this movie did stand out from the run-of-the-mill Drive In fare was that director Albert Pyun gave it some of these inexplicable, strange tones. And there was one TERRIFIC pun half-way into the movie, but youu0026#39;ll have to watch it to find out for yourself…”
