It seems that the various 1-star reviews are taking a personal offense to the portrayal of their own nerd-lifestyle, rather than rating the movie unbiasedly for its content. The movie is far from perfect. Yes, Beverly D'Angelo, Kelly LeBrock, William Katt, and William Heard are used in brief, unimportant roles (no doubt just to add "names" to make the film more marketable), and yes, some of the jokes miss the mark, but that can be said about any comedy movie. I laughed out loud through a good part of the movie, and would recommend above it any of the retarded parody films like "Meet the Spartans", "Epic Movie" and so on. I highly recommend checking out the DVD as the audio behind the title menu is absolutely hilarious.

This film completely surprised me. I rented it thinking it would probably be fairly bad, but be entertaining because of it. I quickly realized that this is actually a very funny and well done flick. The cheese is intentional, the breasts are wonderful, the script is actually quite clever, and the cinematography is impressive. Even my girlfriend enjoyed watching it, and laughed through the whole thing. That is saying a lot, since she has an aversion to anything not released by a major studio.

The only reason I didn't score this film higher is I feel it lost momentum towards the end due to a stop motion animation gag that I think went on a little to long. All and all though, a great movie, especially for such a low budget ($50,000 is the figure given on the making-of documentary on the DVD)

If a copy of this movie fell into the wrong hands, the world would be in grave danger. I am a huge fan of "B" movies, and I have seen my share of bad ones, but there is not a letter in the alphabet that could adequately describe this rancid piece of solidified puke. This movie even surpasses the "so bad it's good" phase and goes straight on to the "so bad your world will seem a little less meaningful for having watched it" phase.

It is hard to say what is more disturbing: .1. The fact that the people who wrote this thought their political satire (I use the term very, very, very loosely) was witty enough to film .2. They were able to find so many other people who agreed with them enough to work on this garbage for obviously little or no money .3. That someone actually thought it would be a good idea to pick this crap up for distribution on a horror anthology DVD.

Were I a weaker man, I most likely would have jammed grapefruit spoons into my eyes and then blindly flung myself to my death in oncoming traffic after watching this. As it stands though, I live ,but I am forever scarred by the experience.
