Sorority Row is a decently done typical modern horror movie. For a film with no big stars and a director whose name doesn’t ring a bell, it is worth watching.

This is a great watch for those of you who like partying and hot sorority girls, and for those who don’t, you’ll still like it because plenty die in some great shocking and bloody scenes.

After a vindictive college prank by several pretty ladies sworn to trust, secrecy and solidarity goes wrong, the viewer is left to wonder how long that trust and secrecy will last. It takes half of the movie to figure out where the movie is headed. There is almost no plot, just a situation and reactions. The first half that is shrouded in mystery is actually better than the latter because when you do realize what is happening, you also find that you’ve seen it before. Sorority Row is very Scream-esqe or I Know What You Did whenever-ish. The girls drive the story, but the acting is not that great. The characters are not that memorable, so it is a little hard to follow what’s going on. Most of the characters seem the same and undeveloped. Oh wait, we are dealing with sorority girls, maybe Stewart Hindler did do a good job.

There are a few great one liners in this movie like, “You think I’m afraid of you, I live with 50 bitches.” And even a vicious murderer on the loose can’t stop drama queen sorority girls from cutting each other down, cheating with each other’s boyfriends and worrying about their hair. Sorority Row is a throwback to the great B-grade sorority horror movies of the past like Slumber Party Massacre and such.

It would probably be better if it were a little more cheesy and not so big budget and serious, but it still has what it takes to get kids sneaking off to see some violence and boobs. I’d watch it again.
