Cathardincu Surprisingly incoherent and boring
AniInterview Sorry, this movie sucks
Aedonerre I gave this film a 9 out of 10, because it was exactly what I expected it to be.
Mehdi Hoffman There's a more than satisfactory amount of boom-boom in the movie's trim running time.
Flow Few horror-comedies out there, and most of them usually rely on gore and extremely bad language for the gags, but not this one, oh no, Night of the living dorks is a sure winner!I won't go into details, cause they are better to be explored by the viewer and keep the fresh pace throughout the entire movie, but I can assure you, this dark comedic production will not make you gag, smile, or snort a little, but laugh out loud plenty of times! The script is wonderfully written, the actors do their work lovely and there will be a few surprises for you here and there, so keep your eyes opened and be ready to giggle! Other such great productions are: One eyed monsters, Grabbers, Botched, My name is Bruce! And after these recommendations, I'm gonna stop writing, as Night of the living dorks is a movie to be watched first, then discussed! Go, play it and have your fun!Cheers!
lazarillo As others have said this is kind "Revenge of the Nerds" meets "Night of the Living Dead". It's also kind of sweet and romantic in a way. It kind of reminded me of Bob Balaban's underrated horror/comedy "My Boyfriend's Back" released about ten years ago or "Idle Hands" a little more recently. After participating in a hilariously screwed-up graveyard ritual with some half-assed satanists, three nerdy losers are killed in car accident (which results from a hilarious bong-related mishap), and come back to life as zombies. They decide to use their undead abilities to get revenge on their enemies and chase after the girls of their dreams.To this movie's credit it's very funny, and all the characters, especially the three protagonists, are well-drawn and likable. There's also some subtle jokes like the characters attending "Friedrich Nietzsche High School" (which actually might not be a joke in Germany) and the homosexual gym teacher named "Mr. Stalin". The downside though is it's a little too much like a modern-day American teen movie (which makes it pretty ironic that Hollywood is apparently going to remake this). The teens are ridiculously horny even by teenage standards and there is no end to the gross-out, sexually related humor, yet there is also very little (female) nudity. The main protagonist is in love with an icy Aryan blonde, but in typical Hollywood teen movie fashion doesn't seem to notice that the "goth" girl-next-door who taught him how to kiss is absolutely gorgeous. I also wish it were even more "politically incorrect"--the funniest scenes are the ones Hollywood would have been too leery to put in a teen movie, like the irresponsible dope smoking while driving or the scene where the dim-witted satanists accidentally draw a Star of David instead of a pentagram ("The only thing you're going to summon with that is the Jewish Council!").If you are going to watch a modern-day teenage movie though, you could certainly do worse than this (a lot worse).
cyclone259 "Night of the Living Dorks" was OK in it's own right. I can't say that the story was exceptional, nor was the acting, effects, etc., but it did blend two genres: comedy and horror effectively enough.The movie "borrowed" elements from such American teen comedies as American Pie, Revenge of the Nerds and Weird Science and mixes them with the obvious: Night of the Living Dead.I won't be giving anything away by saying there's teen zombies, revenge and bare breasts (not in that order though). There isn't anything too terrifying, although there's some gore, but nothing over-the-top. Most of the humor is flat, but it does have its moments.Anyway, not as bad as some... not as good as others. Overall, good attempt from the Germans for the genre..
snrsnrsnrsnr my god, this movie was bad! The acting was extremely poor, really amateurish. It didn't let me forget for one minute that I was watching actors (well, sort of...) in a movie. Some good jokes, I'll admit that. Most of them were shown in the trailers. Another semi-plus is Collien Fernandes... she's just nice to look at (though her acting skills are rather poor too).After half of the film I walked out. I must say, that my standards for movies are not very high. And I was well aware, that this was going to be a somewhat silly teen comedy. But still... Avoid this movie, if your standards are not very low.
