Editorial Review:
In this hilarious satire on college life, a group of misfits led by Robert Carradine and Anthony Edwards decides to start their own fraternity after being rejected by every house on campus. Chaos results, with a brains vs. brawn battle, as the football t
Description of Revenge of the Nerds - Panty Raid Edition:
Nerds without computers may seem a contradiction in terms, but life was simpler back in 1984 and the geeks seemed to get along fine with just a slide rule and a plastic pocket protector. A variation on the fraternity-farce plot of Animal House, the picture celebrates the triumphs of a gang of geeks, led by Robert Carradine and a pre-E.R. Anthony Edwards, as they get back at a rival frat house full of jocks and preppies. Although the brains-over-brawn theme ought to be sure-fire, the movie gets by mostly on charm; there are very few explosively funny sequences. The supporting cast includes some surprising familiar faces, notably James Cromwell (Babe, L.A. Confidential) as Carradine's look-alike dad, pants hoisted proudly to his armpits. The director, Jeff Kanew (Gotcha!), went on to the 1991 private-eye belly flop V.I. Warshawski and has not been heard from since. --David Chute
Revenge of the Nerds - Panty Raid Edition Reviews:
Didnt read it was VHS 
2009-09-07 - I love the movie too bad i dont own a vcr anymore. I didnt read once agian i just saw revenge of the nerds
Middling comedy 
2009-07-23 - The Bottom Line:
Another one of those "comedy classics" that's not actually a very funny or good movie, Revenge of the Nerds has occasional funny moments but it neither warrants its reputation as a memorable film nor your time and money; unless you're the type of person who finds the Police Academy series to be the zenith of modern comedy then stay away from this film.
2.5/4
Very Funny!!! 
2009-05-21 - This was on tv today, so I watched it to refresh my memory. It is really funny! Lewis and Gilbert are nerdy friends going to Adams College. One the first day, they are picked on and eventually forced all the nerds to live in the gym. They finally find a messy house and fix it up so they can live in it, but the Alpha Betas and Pi Delta Pis still do awful things to them, so the nerds try to take a stand a fight back! If you are a nerd like me and love classic comedy, you'll love REVENGE OF THE NERDS!!!
NERDS!!!!
2009-04-25 - My favorite character is that of The Ogre! NERDS!!!!! not because I condone bullies, But because he makes these hilarious faces, and looks like a buffoon.followed by Louis,And Booger and Lamar! I remember seeing this film growing up and Laughing just like a Nerd. This movie is a Classic. WE GOT BUSH!!!
Revenge is Sweet
2009-01-13 - What an interesting way for cinema to capture the imagination of the people. This movie has forever cemented 'nerds' as being a seperate part of society. Although these days the thin line between a 'nerd' and a 'tech head' is thining, this movie captures the stereotypes held in the 70's, 80's and 90's that most 'non nerds' felt at the time.
There was talk of a remake in 2006 that i cant find any info on.
The most recent 'revenge of the nerds video i can find is linked below.
