Troma Entertainment and Anchor Bay Films have released a brand-new, exclusive poster for the world premiere of Return to Nuke ‘Em High: Volume 1, directed by Lloyd Kaufman, at the 2013 Fantasia Film Festival in Montreal, Canada, on Friday, August 2nd, at 11:55 PM in the Imperial Theatre.

Montreal will be home to a showcase of over 100 feature films from around the world, along with a wealth of special events, conferences, and parties. Audiences can look forward to discovering numerous World and International premieres, as well as the Canadian debuts of some of the most acclaimed genre works from this year’s Cannes, Sundance, SXSW, Berlin, and Tribeca film festivals.

One such film will be the WORLD PREMIERE of Troma founder Lloyd Kaufman’s Return To Nuke ‘Em High, Vol. One!

The brilliant, maniacal mind behind Troma Entertainment triumphantly returns to Fantasia with the hotly-anticipated first chapter of his epic new masterwork – and you’d better be ready for Lloyd Kaufman like you’ve never seen! When evil once more roams the halls of exploitation cinema’s most infamous high school, the demented residents of Tromaville must band together one more time to take down bad taste… and replace it with something even more foul!

The exclusive Fantasia poster will be on sale during the screening, along with Troma DVD’S, BluRays, T-Shirts, posters, and other Tromabilia in the main lobby of the Imperial Theatre. Troma President and creator of the Toxic Avenger, Lloyd Kaufman, will also make an on stage appearance with Return to Nuke ‘Em High stars Catherine Corcoran and Asta Paredes, for an informative post-screening Q&A.
