National Lampoon's Dorm Daze 2: College @ Sea (2006)

This time, the turf hits the surf as the students of Billingsley U. ditch campus life for fun, sun and high times on the high seas. When the good ship Surveyor leaves port for romantic Mexico, rules, inhibitions and school clothes are quickly cast off as the salty air and the skimpy swimwear get everyone in the mood to mate. All aboard for laughs as these college hotties put the motion in the ocean in this wet 'n' wild romantic comedy.

Better than I was expecting

I did not expect much out of this movie when I saw it. I was not a big fan of Dorm Daze 1 but I decided to give this a try. Just like many other small budget films it had a cheasy story line but they made the best out of it. The movie had great comedic scenes and plenty of awkward moments. The movie is similar to other college movies in that there are sexy women, screw ups and stoners. The main character Rusty finds out that the ships captain's wife is actually a porn star and trys to make the most of it. Then you have the stoners who are trying to score drugs when the ship goes ashore on an island and end up buying a monkey that they are suppose to kill and smoke his bones. It is random parts like these that make this movie very funny. If you want a funny movie this is for you. It will have you laughing throughout. December 9, 2007

DUMB DAZE

NATIONAL LAMPOON'S DORM DAZE 2 (2006)
directed by David & Scott Hillebrand
approx. 109 minutes

Putting Vida Guerra on the cover of your cheezy college comedy is a great way to sell DVDs. Putting her in less that 15 minutes of the movie is a great way to get negative reviews.

The plot to this movie is all over the place. There is a Professor dealing in the illegal jewel trade who is having a relationship with a student. Two students are competing for a grant for graduate school and one of them is prepared to "go all the way". Then there's a killer loose on the boat, a la 'JASON TAKES MANHATTAN'. Some of the students are trying to stay abstinent, others are have just broken up & are trying to "live it up". Oh by the way, all these characters are cast in a play that is to be judged against a statement from a group of pretentious feminists who later turn out to be slatterns. There are a few funny parts but mostly it feels like a rush job trying to reiterate the stereotype that college kids are soul-less animals controlled by their raging libido.

The cast is a weird grouping of people... porn actress Jasmin St. Claire, the guy from 'the Nanny', the Principal's daughter from "Boston Public", "the Sherminator" from 'AMERICAN PIE', etc. I never saw the first 'DORM DAZE' so I was surprised to see Danielle Fishel (best known as "Topanga" on 'BOY MEETS WORLD') in this movie.

The DVD features a "Vida Guerra featurette" which is also misleading. While Vida is interviewed in this "special feature", its actually a behind the scenes of a photoshoot for the August/September 2006 issue of Black Men magazine. The issue featured pictures of Vida, China Shavers and Jennifer Lyons.

Apparently, 'DORM DAZE 3' is already in production. I wonder if the marketing for this one will affect the sales of future titles. March 22, 2007

Set sail for the bargain bin.

This is the worst teensploitation film I've ever seen. The jokes are flat and uninspired. There is absolutely no new ground broken here. Not a single memorable moment, with the exception of a slow motion scene in a woman's shower room.

But if it's skin you're looking for, hasn't the internet made movies like this obsolete? Why do I need to sit through 100 minutes of dumb plot and jokes that are all dead on arrival when I can take two minutes to do a google search for Vida Guera? February 27, 2007

it's mildly entertaining!

this one is sick & full of humor! however, it is stupid humor, I only laughed about half the time. lots of hot chicks in this film, including Vida Guerra. this is pretty much the film u'd expect it to be, partying, sex, drugs, nudity & so on... the premise, is a diamond has been stolen by a "pretend" investigator and a smart monkey amped up on drugs & such steals it shortly after the man is murdered but we don't know who did it. that person was looking to steal it from the original thief as the diamond is worth $4 million. but that's not the entire focuss of the film which is good cause I don't think anyone would want to watch a monkey running around everywhere with a diamond in its tiny little bag it uses to steal things. would get pretty dull. so in turn, we get a competition between two plays & I think we all know which ones the judges would've preferred, lol. however, I never found this film all that funny. the plot was really weird as they switched between both events and then had all these side characters doing other stuff and was all very distracting & not very well executed. I could pick apart a bunch of things wrong with this film but this film is just meant to be enjoyed without over-thinking it! otherwise, you might find yourself a little disappointed or u'll be hating it with passion. it's not a good film but may or may not be worth seeing.
