Fedora Wearing Biggins reviews Sorority row



Sorority row is proud to be sponsored by facebook. When I saw this film advertised I assumed that it was just your run of the mill slasher film but I was pleasantly surprised. This film starred a variety of hot college girls, a creepy psychiatrist and a tire iron wielding psychopath. Sorority row centers around a group of sorority sisters try to cover up the death of their house-sister after a prank gone wrong, only to be stalked by a serial killer who favors a Tire iron as his weapon of choice.

This film while based on a film made in the 80's it did a good job of breaking away from the cliché and pitfalls of your average horror or slasher film. The acting was superb and the story was mystifying enough to keep you wanting more. I don't scare easy but some of the murders were so gory or in the case of the first kill so unexpected that my jaw hit the floor and stayed there for five minutes. Not only was this film gory and filled with hot chicks but I couldn't help but laugh like a hyena all the way through. The film its self wasn't supposed to be funny I don't think but some of the deaths were so fitting you couldn't help but laugh, some of the killers dialog was quite funny if you can laugh at a sorority girl with a tire iron in her head.


My only problem with this film was how often facebook was mentioned as it wasn't necessary at all and to be honest I prefer Twitter. Besides that though I was surprised by how good the film was and I do not normally like this kind of film but it is worth watching if you like slasher films, comedy of hot half naked party girls. A word of warning though you may develop a very rational fear of tire irons. A solid 3.5 out of 5 for Sorority row.
