My review was written in March 1990 after watching the movie on Nelson Entertainment video cassette.
This made-for-home video (it even lists a teleplay credit) sequel to 1982's "Zapped" offers the same formula of teen t&a, but it's gotten stale over the years.
With verbal references to the Scott Baio-starring original, pic covers exactly the same territory. Todd Eric Andrews, a poor man's Kevin Bacon, is the new boy at Emerson High School who joins the Science Club and finds Baio's mysterious elixir, which gives him telekinetic powers.
These are used, naturally to cause girls' garments to raise, drop or split on cue. Other dumb gags proliferate as Andr4ews, plain Jane heroine Kelli Williams and their friends fight with the stuck-up campus bullies led by Reed Rudy.
Overacting in the adult roles are Lyle Alzado as the football coach and Sue Ann Langdon as school principal. Linda Blair and Karen Black camp it up in guest shots as teachers.
Limp effort is quite dated, presenting a condescending, old fogeys' approach to the way young people supposedly talk and behave.
