Plot
Four cheerleaders from the Happy Valley High Hamsters are blamed by a group of Church Ladies for the invasion of "Internet smut" into their children's bedrooms. The Church Ladies hire Stephen, a gay teacher from the local Parochial Reform School, to teach the cheerleaders a lesson by training a group of evil Catholic school girls.[2]
In the other side, Mr. X, an evil mastermind is using the cheerleaders as guinea pigs to test his Internet Zombie Domination software. So the cheerleaders turn to their arch social enemies, the computer geeks, to help them learn Ninja abilities and defeat the evil Catholic Girls, Stephen and the mysterious Mr. X.
Reception
Film Threat gave the film four stars, stating that the performances were "quite good, especially for the subject matter we’re dealing with".[3] The Encyclopedia of Underground Movies found it more gory than funny.[4]
Remake
It is not to be confused with the 2008 feature Ninja Cheerleaders, starring George Takei.[5]
