Not another ROTN (revenge of the nerds), an original American Tour-de-force of a thinking man's romp
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.
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.
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.
What can I say? This movie is pretty rotten on every level. The other people writing about this movie are either being sarcastic, delusional or more likely, involved in it's production. I realize it's tough to make a cheap movie and I commend this guy for giving it a try. I mean it has normal lighting and sound and it's shot on film. That's all I can say good about it. Apparently the filmmaker, who is actually not the worst actor in the world, did his own soundtrack. He shouldn't have. This one is obviously attempting to cash-in on the "Nerds" movies which is probably a good idea but even if you like "bad" movies like I do, this one has virtually no redeeming qualities, no laughs and not enough skin to carry it to the end. Sorry cast but come on! And no more self-promotional lying on the IMDb!
It's not very different than those endless National Lampoon movies of the 90's made to appeal to male college kids who sit around drinking beer all weekend.
The "hot" girls are all pushing 40's and not so hot and one was actually pregnant during filming. Talk about a buzz kill.
It's a ridiculous movie a few steps above similar flicks made by Troma, but that's not saying much. The writing is moronic at best.
Artie Johnson of Laugh-In fame must have needed the money because he appears in it as Mr. Witherspoon. He's the only recognizable actor in this flick.
I can't say I was bored. I couldn't get that involved in the movie. But I can't say I liked it either.
