The jolting story of a teenage world no adult knows! Behind these “nice” school walls lies a teacher’s nightmare: packs of troubled toughs out for kicks, fueled by the juvenile delinquent dream of sex, drugs, hot rods and rock ‘n roll. Russ Tamblyn plays the new switchblade-wielding, slang-talking hipster in town, whose weed-dealing prowess quickly wins over the local gang. But is everything truly as it seems in this parable of pop-culture paranoia? Featuring an unforgettable Jerry Lee Lewis theme song, memorable supporting performances, and juicy slang-filled dialogue, High School Confidential! is a ‘50s teen exploitation classic!
