Revenge of the Nerds IV: Nerds in Love (1994)
Sequelcast 2 and Friends
Shownotes Transcript
Hosts Mat Bradley-Tschirgi, Thrasher, and Alex Miller discuss Revenge of the Nerds IV: Nerds in Love. Booger looks to get hitched while Lewis and Betty have a dork bun in the oven. Starring Curtis Armstrong, Robert Carradine, and Julia Montgomery.
The final Revenge of the Nerds film (for now), Revenge of the Nerds IV: Nerds in Love is a backdoor pilot to a Booger series. In many ways, this feels like a madcap 1930s comedy with a modicum of the wit and/or social satire. As always, there's the Caddyshack influenced "snobs vs. slobs" thing going on. Despite this being about a wedding and including more of the original cast (Donald Gibb as Ogre steals the show), it feels lower in stakes compared to Nerds III. Still, there's a few good lines here and there (Lewis naming his son Kunta Kinte is a riot as is Ogre debating Russian socioeconomics of the 1920s while smashed). A good effort, but I wouldn't risk it for a chocolate biscuit over this flick.
