Killer Nerd Trailers

A nerd is harassed by punks, and is the object of ridicule at work. Enamoured by a co-worker, he buys a tape series on how to be cool, summons up his nerve, and goes to the co-worker's house, only to find her in the clutches of another co-worker. Dejected, he goes out on the town and parties with some babes, but when their friends, who turn out to be the same punks that harassed him earlier, trash him again something snaps, and the irritants in his life begin experiencing an attrition problem.

Reviews
Stoutor It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.
Twilightfa Watch something else. There are very few redeeming qualities to this film.
InformationRap This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
Raymond Sierra The film may be flawed, but its message is not.
cabasaexpert351 My brother loved this movie and encouraged me to watch parts of it so I did and that was enough for me!!!!!!!!!!!! This movie was the biggest waster of time I have ever seen. There is no such thing as a storyline and the acting is terrible!!!! Take my advice and DO NOT watch this movie!!! If you do you will want all that time you spent watching it back. Anyone who likes this movie is crazy, I don't know how ANYONE can like this movie. It is probably the WORST movie ever made. If you don't believe me see for yourself and you'll know what I mean. One of the worst parts is that the people who made this movie were actually trying to make a real movie-they definitely could of fooled me.
chickiesinger98 I enjoyed this Troma movie very much. Everything from the Killer Nerd's dance on the dance floor at a local bar to the "How to be Cool" skit made the movie pretty funny. Killer Nerd could have had a little more of a personality but still not bad for the budget give for a 7500 dollar movie! I still prefer Steve Urkel and Jamison from WWF fame but Killer Nerd was still somehow able to provide me with some good comedy. I thought the 9 year old girls calling Killer Nerd a nerd after his hard day of working at the office quite cute but quite sad at the same time. Probably one of the better Troma movies I've seen so far, which isn't very many(9 and counting!).
nolexicon I write this without even looking at previous comments, save the latest one available-Fellating the movie. 1-There is no gore for an HOUR. I have to sit here and listen to this guy talk for an hour and whine about how he can't get anyone before I get to see anything! and what's this? I don't really see anything anyway! Almost NO gore, this is a horror film, dammit!2-The film seems far too amateur, I probably shouldn't complain about this so much but it really lacks charm when the film looks like crap.3-The side characters are extremely boring, The only one I thought was okay was the dick co-worker, just because his character was so exaggerated.Avoid this movie, I wish I would've 1/10
one4now4 With that sarcastic remark out of the way, let's get to the review, shall we? This is an odd little movie, to say the least, but I liked it. My expectations were a little too much for this, but it's not too bad at all. It starts out as a goofy, quirky comedy (which would probably only be funny to us geeky people), but doesn't get truly horrific until the end. It's the kind of movie I would love to fool some mainstreamers into watching just to see the look on their faces when it switches gears and becomes a splatter movie toward the end. One thing I'm yet to figure out is whether the horror portion is meant to be humorous in a Freddy Krueger type of way, or to be intense with a guy who loses it and offs anyone who he thinks has crossed him, regardless of who might deserve it or not (which some of the victims don't). All in all, though, I did like it, just not as much as I thought I would. I think the title was what ensnared me, and though we do get what's promised, the delivery wasn't as much of a nasty blast as I had hoped for. If I could give it a rating with stars (which I usually don't like to do), I would sum this one up with about three out of five.
