Did you people see the same film I saw?

Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

With a name such as "Sorority Party Massacre" then you know that you will either be in for a very cheesy and campy slasher movie, or you will be in for a hilarious spoof on the slasher genre. With that in mind I sat down to watch "Sorority Party Massacre".Bad mistake...I managed to sit 45 minutes into the ordeal that is known as "Sorority Party Massacre" before I gave up on finishing the movie and just got up to find something else to watch. The storyline was just unfathomably boring and slow paced, and in those 45 minutes that I endured very little, and I do mean very little, had happened at all. And I totally lost all interest in watching the rest to see what happened.Slasher movies have a tradition of being cheesy and low budget, but this one is the crowning on the cake. "Sorority Party Massacre" turned out to be a very, very boring movie.The characters in the movie were characters that you hardly cared for, and you didn't really care if they lived or died. As in contrast to movies such as "Friday the 13th", where it is not just a matter of if they will die, it is a matter of how they will die. Such was not the case with the cardboard cut-out characters on parade in "Sorority Party Massacre".I had hoped that seeing Richard Moll in a movie such as this might actually have helped the movie along, even if just a cameo. But I frankly don't recall seeing him here or remembering him here.This is a movie that I have no intentions of returning to finish at a later point in time, because the movie just never appealed or spoke to me in any way.

If you are watching a movie entitled "Sorority Party Massacre," you know what you want -- a mindless slasher filled with scantily clad hot girls, with a healthy dollop of nudity and violence. Pretty simple."Sorority Party Massacre" beings very promisingly. A smoking hot girl wearing tiny shorts gets lost going to some sort of sorority competition. In a Scream-like beginning, she is terrorized by phone calls and a masked killer and ends up being killed in a gruesome fashion. So far, so good -- seems like the filmmakers get it. The credits roll, and then we are somehow transported to an entirely different movie.The movie suddenly switches from a slasher to a really bad "comedy." We are introduced to our hero, Detective Watts, who is getting suspended for having anger issues (pounded a suspect in the balls, destroyed a little boy's bike, and grabbed an ice cream cone out of another little kid's hand and smashed it over the kid's head -- that gives you an idea of what passes for "humor" in this film). His captain (played by Kevin Sorbo) sends him to find out what happened to his daughter (the girl in the opening scene). So he heads out to the sorority gathering the girl was headed to to figure out what happened.There are several hot girls there, but sadly, most of the film is focused on painful to watch attempts at "comedy" between the Detective and the local sheriff department. The "hot girls in peril" plot is definitely pushed to the back in favor of hysterical jokes like, "I liked you better when you were a mongoloid." The movie tries to end interestingly by recycling a plot from several older films (I won't tell you which ones they are, because that would be a spoiler) but rest assured it doesn't really make much sense and definitely doesn't make the movie experience any better. Nothing in the film comes close to the quality of the opening scene, and I actually think that scene might have been tacked on a later time since a lot of it isn't, in retrospect, consistent with the rest of the movie. If you're looking for nudity, forget it, there's only a quick shot of an extra's boob. And if you're looking for graphic violence, after the promising opening scene, you'll need to look elsewhere."Sorority Party Massacre." Easy film to make, but they blew it. Can't recommend this one.

Sexy college girls endure gore galore when a psychotic killer with a taste for sorority sister torture arrives. But when this party gets started, will they receive an advanced degree in extreme horror? Staci Layne Wilson of Dread Central pins this as "an incompetent, messy mish-mash of Scream, Student Bodies and 'Reno 9-1-1.'" Well, that about sums it up. Thanks, Staci! While there are some decent scenes, and a few actors who deserve a bit of credit (and many who do not), this just amounts to a lot of nothing. I mean, even for a film called "Sorority Party Party", it is pretty disappointing. Next, the same writer-director is bringing us "Bachelorette Party Massacre", which I am sure will be more of he same tripe.

What a great start this flick had. okay, it was a bit of a rip-off of Scream (1996) but still it worked out fine. Then came the opening credits but once the real flick started it was downhill with Sorority Party Massacre.Once after the opening credits we do have Kevin Sorbo (of Hercules fame) in a talking scene and it goes on and on but it should have been funny which it wasn't. Once the girls are introduced it looked fine again but then again the acting went below zero. There's here and there a spot of nudity but it just didn't work. It should have brought us back to the old eighties slashers but sadly it doesn't. The comedy didn't work and the girls didn't do anything except teasing. Once the killer comes in there's no gore to spot only a bit of the red stuff. It's weird that Ed O'Ross did agree to take part in such a disaster. The editing was okay and the score did work but that the only positive thing I can say about this massacre.Gore 0/5 Nudity 0,5/5 Effects 1/5 Story 1,5/5 Comedy 0/5
