Loucura na Festa

Assault of the Party Nerds is a fun movie. Yeah, it's full of "b" movie actors and the story in not to today's standards, but this movie isn't that bad. It's a cool movie that you can just sit back and watch. It's one of those movies you can watch and you don't have to think; just watch it. It has some funny parts and it's a shame more people don't like it.

Assault of the Party Nerds (1989) is a low budget fraternity comedy. Lambda Alpha Eta only has four members in their fraternity. All for members are due to graduate soon. Rich gets the idea that they need to give a party to recruit some new members so there can still be a fraternity after the four men graduate.

There's the typical jocks vs. Nerds storyline as well. The jocks rely on Rich to cheap on their exams. One of the jocks fails his midterm and is determined to get revenge.

Assault of the Party Nerds is exactly the type of thing that would air on USA Up All Night. Popular B-Movie icons Linnea Quigley and Michelle Bauer are in this. I would probably have probably enjoyed the movie a bit more if the DVD was better quality. The picture quality on the DVD is rather poor.

Director Richard Gabai proves the life isn't just about getting laid its about getting deep too in this beautifully written, expertly acted comedy that best represents the excitement and offbeat beliefs of real-life underdog fraternities inspired by Revenge of the Nerds. This isn't the standard plot driven narrative expected from director/screen writer Richard Gabai, instead it is fearlessly piloted by Sid Witherspoon, the leader of an unpopular fraternity. Troy Donahue's impressive flawless performance creates a likable but emotionally reserved Witherspoon, expanding the character's complexity further than the rare novel published exclusively in France by Gabai. Saddly I wasn't distracted enough from the engaging and hilarious dialog to notice and appreciate the detailed scenery and beautiful colour until the fourth time I watched it. Weather a die hard fan of frat-comedy or post-Shakespearian playwright enthusiast this is the movie....no! Film for you.

What do you expect of a film entitled "Assault of the Party Nerds??" For me- not much and I was able to find it mildly entertaining.

Title pretty much says it all; nerds organize party, but are opposed by the jocks. The two female stars, Quigley and Bauer, show off their assets and what nice assets they have too. Film isn't too long and at least moves at a decent pace.

My rating: 4 out of 10.

I only bought this movie a few years ago because of Linnea Quigley and Michelle Bauer, and now it is one of my favorite low budget b-movies, also I discovered Richard Gabai, who besides acting Directed this flick. Anyway, it is a pretty funny little movie, Linnea AND Michelle play sorority sisters who are a lot dumber than usual, but sexy as hell, Richard Gabai plays a smart fraternity guy and Chris Dempsey plays the evil dude who hates Gabai. Go ahead and rent it, also look for the sequel which is funnier than this one.
