Revenge of the Cheerleaders

Bizarre doesn't begin to describe this hellaciously bad movie. A curio of it's time, today the film offers almost no entertainment value except as a method of torture to future international celebrity Hasselhoff. Plot, such as it is, concerns a gang of sleazy cheerleaders trying to interfere with school business. This film does not take place in any world that viewers will be familiar with. Aside from the expected older actors playing teens, the story and script are so completely unbelievable that this is nothing more than a reason to show some crude drug jokes and display some supple young flesh. For these reasons alone it will appeal to certain "midnight movie" fans. Cheap is the word that comes to mind in every aspect of the movie. A hefty, blonde-wigged nurse (portrayed by an actress who's had a few bit parts in legitimate films) tries to inject some campy laughs into the mess, but fails. This atrocity was unearthed from certain obscurity when supporting player Hasselhoff hit it big on "Night Rider" and "Baywatch". And why? Because midway through the film, his character is shown in a group shower and for a few frames David, jr. makes an appearance. This is not going to turn many people on since the Hasselhoff from this film is light years away from the tan, built TV star they are all familiar with now. Still, it is amazing to note that in 1970's drive-in-style comedies, female AND male nudity was trotted out in surprisingly large doses while now the human body is all but shut away while viewers are asked to watch explosions, gunplay, knives plunging into people and other malicious acts. Sex, however, is considered taboo! (Which is why a movie like "American Pie" can come along and break records....it returns to a sort of innocent piece of sexual trash like this movie was in it's day...although "Revenge..." is definitely way down on the totem pole!) Another striking thing is the bodies themselves. People weren't as bent on physical perfection and surgically enhanced looks. The girls are naturally presented (one even has hilarious tan lines!) and the guys are just lean, pale "dudes". The movie has curiosity value, but only a VERY patient person will make it through the whole thing unless they were alive during that time. Bad....

Oh God, this movie is so BAD !!! I'm just 20, I haven't known the 70's and I of course don't remember the 80's, but Geez when I watch such movies, I just can't stop wondering what is wrong with those people ????? So first, that movie has absolutely no scenario. It's just some random students who are just goofing around recklessly. They're not interested in school and the cheerleaders are the boss of the school actually… The way it's showed is totally far-fetched and unrealistic. And to make it worse, the second part of the movie unveils a crummy action movie with cheerleaders as heroes. COME ON !!!! I found out about that movie on here. I just searched for a cheerleader movie. I also found the GREAT "the cheerleaders" movie (1973) which is really good compared to that one. This "Revenge of the Cheerleaders" is a bizarre film but too bizarre. I found it very BORING. They're always singing, dancing, yelling, having fun… Gosh, you just wanna punch them in the face sometimes. It shows cheerleaders as brainless dummies.

Then, it says "comedy". I never laughed. Wait, I laughed only once… it was when the cops arrested the two naked cheerleaders, asked the put their hands up on the car, and he started feeling them up as if he was searching for some weapons or something. That was funny. So this movie is supposed to be some mix of porn and comedy but come on, I prefer the sex gags of "the cheerleaders" (1973).

So seriously, I don't advise this movie to anyone. I don't understand most people positive comments. Maybe it's because I'm not trendy or something. I just think it's long, noisy, boring and pointless. Make yourself your own opinion !!!

I found this title in the horror movie section of the video store. It did not have a cover, so I just expected it to be some campy horror movie with cheerleaders taking their anger out on random people. Instead I got a very bizarre film that tried to pack as much random nudity into it as humanly possible. There wasn't exaclty a script, and the plot was kind of confusing- but it made up for it in the sheer stupidity of the movie. You have to wonder what the film makers were thinking. The first half of the movie consisted of the cheerleaders running around (completely naked!) and then turned into some bizarre chase plot about trying to save a school from the "evil" commercial developers. OOOOOOH! And what was with all the messed-up dance sequences- all they did was fill time and they were REALLY bad. Also, at least on the copy I rented, after the credits was an ad for a porno video series- complete with footage from the movies!- Rent this movie for what it is - a bizarre porn. Do NOT rent it expecting any more.

the only 2 reasons i can think of to see this movie is (1.) the scene where David Hasselhoff dances with the other cheerleaders and (2.) the scene where David goes into the girls room with another cheerleader and the school nurse walks in. Yes he has a nude scene but its nothing big(literally....)

Unexpectedly strange sex romp has a gang of horny teens resisting shifty land-developers who plan to raze the local high school and replace it with a shopping mall. This probably should have been a garden variety pea-brained libido comedy, and it does, of course, subsume the compulsory parade of birthday suits and ribald chuckles. A differentia of abstract/surreal touches, however, certify this flick as a "stand alone" oddity...malt-shop analingus...a golf course sand-trap portal to the local high school...an ignominious subito dancing scene...the waitress who refused Jack Nicholson toast in FIVE EASY PIECES...future KNIGHT RIDER stud David Hasselhoff(who probably doesn't talk much about this one). Subtleties, all, but it's just enough to keep the viewer slightly cross-eyed with a crooked grin.

All things considered, this is a novelty more weird than legitimately good, but it might be worth a look(if only for the presence of the late, great Rainbeaux Smith, preggers to the max during production).
