as the henchman 'Jughead'. Kaufman and Herz enjoyed working with Brosnky so much that they offered him a lead in Class of Nuke 'Em High 2 which was filmed in 1991. Thinking that Bronsky had good star power, he was brought back for the third film in three different roles (in the trailer, he is credited for four roles) to showcase his acting career in hopes of getting him noticed by more people as the talented actor they thought he was. During the marketing, Troma advertised him as their own action star, giving him a parade in Cannes and talking about him as if he was just as big as any other action star out there. Despite the advertising to help the film and Bronsky's career, the film did not get noted much out of Troma's fanbase and Bronsky only appeared in a handful of films following the third Nuke 'Em High, often in the henchman role. Filming Like its immediate predecessor, it was filmed in Los Angeles, California, and not New York City, New York — as in the original, and most in-house Troma Entertainment productions. Release After having trouble releasing its films with other distributors (Warner Home Video, Fox, Lorimar, etc.), Troma created its own distribution company in 1995 under the label Troma Team Video and Class of Nuke 'Em High 3 was advertised as the company's first major release on VHS. Held back for a year and only released on video, Class of Nuke 'Em High 3 became legendary not for its content, but for what it represented — that the company had taken a huge step forward in labeling and marketing its own films. After a couple of years as one of its biggest sellers, Class of Nuke 'Em High 3 went out of print, and with the decline of video, Troma decided not to re-release it because — despite being highly popular with fans — it felt that the film itself was inferior to some of its other titles. Home media In the mid-2000s, Troma released a Class of Nuke 'Em High box set, which featured the original 1986 film in the same DVD format it had had since 1997 and Class of Nuke 'Em High 2 which had just recently been released on its own. For years, the box set was the only way of being able to buy the third film on DVD.
