Really stupid '80s movie. There wasn't even a sexual romance between the kid and the teacher, as the video box and other ads suggest. The credits clearly state this movie was made in 1989 and it shows. I remember seeing this movie on TV back in '91 and the TV Guide said 1990 and I was like "whoa, no way". 1990 can look '80ish at times because there were some left over fashions around from the '80s, but THIS FILM is just way to '80s to have been made in 1990.
I guess some producer insisted the production date be "1990" to sell the film more. It didn't work, its blatant '80s. But not '80s teen flicks in a good way like Breakfast Club, Heathers, or Karate Kid. This film is awful. Watch the original Zapped, that movie was goofy fun.
