Fall in love with
MORE Video Nasties!

Just looking at the advertisements and the very subject of Evilspeak, not to mention its stars, I was led to believe that this would be another silly little "Revenge of the Nerds"-infused corn dog horror flick much akin to that '80s movie Pulse starring that "Gimme a Break!" kid. As the credits unfolded before me, however, I was greeted with a staunch, dark horror flick in the uncomfortable vein of The Devil's Rain. Pretty much as soon as the prime villain decapitates a topless woman on the beach I stopped thinking about "Gimme a Break".

But as that intro gives way to the main movie, a tale closer to my expectations began to play out. It was about that time that I realized that this evil monk of the opening (Father Esteban) was played by BULL FROM NIGHT COURT! I was surprised that he didn't ask for some Sea Monkeys to eat and wash them down with a Snickers bar that has to last him ALL SEASON LONG...

It wasn't hard to get back into that whole sitcom vibe either, seeing as how our protagonist was Opie's Little Brother. Yeah, yeah, yeah, Clint Howard and Richard Moll both join the list of unlikely names found on the Video Nasty List. But Big Ben from House and ol' Mark from Gentle Ben aren't alone. See, Balok from "The Corbomite Maneuver" plays Stanley Coopersmith, a nerdy, orphaned military student who is picked on by his peers, primarily DONNA'S DAD FROM THAT SEVENTIES SHOW! Yeah. "Bubba" is played by Don Stark, before the perm, back when he was muscular and slightly better looking.

The plot is somewhat familiar. Coopersmith is terrible at sports, so the Bubba and his butt-headed minions decide to do some nasty things to him to make sure he can't play in the big game. In that he's mostly friendless he has to seek refuge in other areas. I say MOSTLY friendless, because one cadet does indeed befriend him... his name is Kowalski and he's played by DWAYNE FROM WHAT'S HAPPENING?! Yeah, man, you can add Haywood Nelson to the list too! What's next, they decide to unwind and blow off some steam by taking a TAXI to CHEERS?
