Night of the Living Dorks

Our first evening of festival films ended with Night of the Living Dorks (Die Nacht der lebenden Loser), a wonderfully funny German horror film spoof. I laughed so hard at some parts that I nearly cried.

Actually, as I think about it the movie was more a spoof of teen fantasy comedy than horror. Think Revenge of the Nerds only instead of taping up their glasses, the nerds staple-gun their decayed bits back to their bodies. And you don't just show up those guys that were mean to you...you eat them!

One of the best things about it was how easy it was to forget that it was in a foreign language with subtitles. There have been some movies that I've seen that never let you forget that you aren't listening to your native tongue.

After seeing it M declared that she wanted to get it on DVD if it was available. I talked it up to everyone I knew to get them to catch the next night's show. I'd have seen it again if we didn't already have another movie lined up for that time slot.
