The House on Sorority Row

As much as school/college slashers disappoint me, every once in a while I stumble on a good one. Such is the case with this one. Basically, a group of college girls pull a prank on a cranky old woman, and she accidently gets killed. Then one-by-one the girls start getting butchered. This movie was pretty entertaining all the way through. There were decent characters, death scenes, and amounts of gore. 4 out of 5.

Characters:

• Katey: The heroine of the movie. Suffers form 'Nice Girl Syndrome.'
• Vicki: Leads the deadly prank on Mrs Slatter. Beaten to death with a cane.
• Mrs. Dorothy Slater: Old lady that runs the sorority house. Shot during a prank-gone-bad.
• Peter: Katey's blind date. Poor guy. And I thought I had some bad dates...
• Dr. Nelson Beck: Doctor who operated on Mrs Slatter and her child years ago. Falls to his death.
• Liz: Throat slit.
• Jeanie: Stabbed with... a knife!
• Diane: Stabbed with... a cane!
• Morgan: Blonde bimbo who gets stabbed with a cane.
• Stevie: The unlucky one choosen to check the fusebox. Stabbed.

The Totals:

• Body Count: 8
• Weapons Used: A cane, a gun, an attic ladder, a knife, darts, and a doll.
• Breast Shots: 1.5
• Moments where characters are mysteriously unable to run from certain death: 1
• Ominous thunderstorms: 1
• Explosions: 0
