It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.

I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible

As somebody who had not heard any of this before, it became a curious phenomenon to sit and watch a film and slowly have the realities begin to click into place.

Hapless persecuted dweeb Harold Kunkle (played to supremely spazzy perfection by the otherworldly dorky Toby Radloff) finally works up the nerve to fight back against his cruel tormentors that include a couple of street punks and his mean co-workers. Writers/directors Mark Steven Bosko and Wayne Alan Harold give Radloff full reign to do his singularly goofy thing: Radloff's amazingly awkward, yet endearing geekoid persona manages to be both funny and likable; this guy is truly unique and has a strong enough oddball presence to carry the picture on his weird shoulders. Moreover, Kunkle's attempts at being hip are hysterical (he buys an instructional cassette series called Slick Dick's School of Cool!). Of course, it's also a treat to watch this timid worm go ballistic and embark on a murderous spree, with the definite highlight occurring when Kunkle kills his mother by pouring cleaner down her throat while dressed like a baby in a bib and giant diaper. The primitive gore effects add considerably to the overall hilarity. The plain cinematography by Alan Stevens boasts a few snazzy stylistic flourishes. Sean Carlin's funky syncopated synthesizer score hits the get-down groovy spot. A total riot.

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

Killer Nerd (1991) is an fun film that portrays the exploits of Harold Kunkle. Harold is your stereotypical nerd who just wants to fit in. But his unique behavior and dress makes him a social outcast in his community. No matter what he does or how hard he tries he just can't fit in. One day Harold has enough of the ribbing and beatings and decides to strike back.Toby Radloff stars as Harold Kunkle. He's perfect as the Killer Nerd. What keeps this movie from being better than average is the pacing of the film. It feels very padded out. I can deal with the tiny budget and the fact it was shot on video but they need to tighten this film. I guess they felt that they needed to make it at least 90 minutes. I can live with it being shorn of the padded scenes and what not (it's sequel is a much better film and it clocks in well under 80 minutes). I totally disagree with this film being the worse ever made. Watch Spine.Recommended."NERD, NERD, NERD, NERD!!!

A prime example of how entertaining a low budget horror comedy can be, Killer Nerd packs quite a punch throughout its ninety minute running time. Howard Kunkle, played to perfection by Toby Radloff, is the ultimate nerd who snaps and goes on a killing rampage to get revenge against those that have ridiculed him. It's an over-the-top black comedy that will delight those who like films by such auteurs as David Lynch and John Waters. Thumbs up on this one!
