A group of Sorority sisters are sworn to trust, secrecy and solidarity no matter what. But their loyalty is tested when a prank goes terribly wrong and ends a brutal murder. Rather than confess to the crime, the girls agree to hide the bloody corpse and keep their secret forever. A year later, as they prepare to say goodbye to the house and each, the girls are confident their dark secret will remain buried, but does it?

Format:DVD
Although there is nothing remotely original about this slasher. I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it. In what is mix of Scream and I Know What You Did Last Summer. A of group sorority sisters play a prank that leads to the accidental death and cover-up of one of the sisters. A year after said prank the girls are stalked by an ominous killer with a modified tyre-iron. Standard teenage stalk and slash rules follow and while the gore is tame, the murder scenes are quite fresh and imaginative. The dialogue is cheesy but the acting is above par for a slasher film. The cast are all sexy, the smoking hot Jamie Chung being the standout. A hilarious cameo from Carrie Fisher and a rocking soundtrack all added to the enjoyment of this film. The only thing I was disappointed with was the obligatory plot twist.

8 months after the accidental death of their sorority sister, a group of sorority sisters are targeted by a serial killer.
Stewart Hendler's picture is a blend of the hormonal versus the slasher. The sex versus the violence. And whilst recent pictures have blended similar ideologies together (Donkey Punch etc) this is still a highly likable picture.
Beginning with your conventional teenage college party we see the camera flowing around in a big one cut opening sequence (impressive one to) as we see students demolishing their surroundings, couples getting frisky and even the odd brawl breaking out. Like the first series of Skins everything is spicy and elegant with colourful unknown protagonists.
From Bruce Willis' daughter to Step Up 2 star Briana Evigan we see a collection of attractive personalities engage in a sorority gathering and when a sexual prank goes from bad to worse in the middle of nowhere we dive right into gritty drama.
The dialogue in this sequence feels quite ordinary, as if plugged straight from any other horror. From the "What's happened" to "What are we going to do?" everything is samey but thankfully this particular sequence is saved through some wonderfully shot hand held camera motives. Flashes of panicked faces flash by in a whirlwind of emotional drama and incomprehensible circumstance and from there we have our horror.
8 months pass by with no incident and as the biggest party of the year arrives, so does a masked guest who targets the sorority girls. Scream was and perhaps still is the first and best original slasher movie thanks to its creepy flinching motive and dark intertextuality to other horrors. This 2009 picture follows similar traits with its unidentifiable villain and modern comedy style. From Facebook jokes to appearance jibes, this stereotypes itself into the trend of modern cinema. If you're looking for a refreshing bite of horror with raw humour like Scream, look elsewhere.
Not being too big on horror myself I ashamedly admit to flinching a few times but any big horror guru will not be unfazed by its frankly predictable justification of attacks. The humour is not on the scale of Scream or Scary Movie but modern culture gets a slap in the face with this collection of appearance, sex and party flicks.
Acting wise Evigan steps up from her blank portrayal in her last outing and the leader of the girls Leah Pipes is cruel and as suave enough to manage the others, easily generating the most humour. And whilst Rumer Willis cries all the way through and Julian Morris fits the stereotype of aloof boyfriend, they all fit easily to the narrative.
By far the best horror in the world, Sorority rows makes for a fun viewing with modern and current vibes of teenage angst and oppression.
7/10

I love this film it is so much fun, it is just what is was made to be a fun horror film. The death scenes are quite inventive and the script is witty and has some great lines. It doesnt take its self seriously, and it is one of the much better horror films, you get to know a little bit about the characters and understand what they are like which is good because it made you care more about them, even if what they did was wrong you still care about 1 or 2 of the characters. Really enjoyable and fun slasher horror 4 stars! :)

Sorority Row
I havent seen the original, but its a decent slasher film and has a couple of jumpy moments. Would recommend to horror fans and anyone who likes slasher films.

ok its a slasher,, but a good one
Its a case of love them or hate them. Slashers are made up from a formula I think and this one has it all-from dark humor the blood to the jumps. Read more
