Sing: "Revenge of the Nerds Revenge of the Nerds uh uh yeah...."

[7/10 · 19 September 2005]

Get out your robotic electronic dance moves and synthesizers before delving into this one. What a memorable film, I still hum the ROTN tune from the show...Say what you want, but the misfits fight back and kick arse is a format that will never lose vogue for as long as popularity and marginalization exists amongst youth culture. This one is part of the motley crew of films of this genre emerging in the early 80s, not unlike the early 2000s where we have teenage party films like American Pie, Road Trip, etc. Back then it was, ROTN, Stripes, Police Academy...the list goes on. I'm just enjoying the underdog victory as I always have!
