The Buzz

"A stoner comedy worthy of being mentioned in the same paragraph as both Dazed and Confused and the great John Hughes." - Film School Rejects

"...destined to take its place among classics like HALF-BAKED and UP IN SMOKE" - JoBlo's Movie Emporium

Synopsis

So it's the end of the school year, and smarmy Principal Gordon has suddenly instituted a zero-tolerance crusade against his nemesis, the reviled marijuana. A mandatory drug test for all students is to be administered, failure of which will result in immediate expulsion. Normally, this would be of no consequence to straight-arrow valedictorian Henry Burke, except he just tried ganja for the very first time. With his college scholarship hanging in the balance, Burke begrudgingly teams up with charismatic pothead Travis Breaux to do the only thing they can think of to neutralize this threat—get the entire student body stoned.
