It's hard to know what to say about "Assault of the Party Nerds", so I'll just describe what I think was the plot:

Four nerds (actually more like two nerds, one cool guy, and one balding hippie) want to throw a party and invite some babes (Michelle Bauer, Linnea Quigley, and some other girl). There are some jocks who apparently make-up an equally underpopulated fraternity elsewhere who are probably the bad guys.

They have their party. Movie over.

There are topless scenes from Bauer and Quigley (of course), though the other blonde woman regrettably keeps her clothes on. Late in the movie there is the unexplained arrival of some broad who looks like a playboy bunny... from perhaps the year 1954. Yeah, she's a little past it, but she shows her boobs anyway.

The movie just felt like shots of the movie's three main groups sitting around, talking. First, the nerd house. Then the girls. Then the jocks (one jock is always depicted lifting weights, perhaps to hide the fact that his physique doesn't really fit the role).

Then there's the party.

I'm not sure what the title was supposed to indicate. It was obviously just a cash-in on "Revenge of the Nerds". There's no "assault" in this movie.

I do give it credit for one thing, though: there's a sex scene with one of the jocks and Linnea Quigley, with Linnea moaning and groaning and carrying on, just long enough for you to realise that she is supposed to be obviously faking, and then we see the jock, lying back, uninvolved. It felt like a sly wink to regular viewers of b-grade cinema who always find the sex scenes fake; like the filmmakers are saying, "they are, aren't they?"
