Sorority Row Reviews
There are a few jump-scares, carefully engineered by jolting music, a dark cellar, and sudden impalements, but the script’s inane plotting proves to be embarrassingly dim-witted.
| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Sep 4, 2023
It's taken me four years to appreciate how funny this film is. As a straightforward slasher, it disappoints, but the humour is undeniably killer. Pipes and Harshman are worthy of diva worship for their inspired performances.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Jul 6, 2021
A sharp, funny and highly entertaining little film that in no way deserved the critical drubbing it received back in 2009. Turn your brain off and get ready to laugh, folks.
| Original Score: 4.5/5 | Jul 5, 2021
One of the weaker entries in 2009's horror genre.
| Original Score: 1.5/4.0 | Sep 24, 2020
This is a funny, bitchy and gory film that exists solely to entertain and I would argue is better than about 80% of the slashers that have come out in the past decade.

By the time the killer's identity is finally revealed you'll be amazed at how screenwriters make big bucks penning lines like, "Who the hell lit the house on fire? Shit!"
| Original Score: .5/5 | Feb 15, 2013
This is a movie so formulaic it could have been written by Microsoft Excel.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Sep 29, 2012
Typical slasher film packed with boobs, boys, booze and blood. Go into Sorority Row with your brain on cruise control and just enjoy the movie for what it is: a gore party.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Aug 14, 2010
Like the all-partying, all-screaming sisters of Theta Pi, Sorority Row feels doomed from the first frame.
| Aug 9, 2010
...a sporadically watchable yet thoroughly disappointing horror effort that's underwhelming even by the standards of the genre.
| Original Score: 2/4 | Jul 15, 2010
Classic horror that follows the old pattern, but it follows it well with creative slashings and a well hidden killer. You could do a lot worse.
| Original Score: B+ | Mar 7, 2010
Sorority Row can laugh at the fact that it falls in line with genre conventions, but it doesn't excuse how easily it adopts them.
| Original Score: C- | Jan 31, 2010
Over-the-top humor tries to mask the problems, that it's not scary and the ending comes complete with a double-reverse-tricked-itself-out-of-coherency reveal of the killer.

They're not just college girls. They're B*!

Welcome to Skank Ho sorority, where you'll skills like covering up the grotesque death of one of your sisters during a mean-spirited prank.
| Nov 3, 2009
A fairly traditional collegiate slasher that entertains but breaks no new ground.
| Original Score: 2/4 | Oct 31, 2009
I don't know what could make this movie seem dumber. Oh, and it's also a remake of What You Did Last Summer
| Original Score: 1.5/5 | Oct 16, 2009
After these Bratz dolls dump the Corpsey One down a mine shaft, the plot follows, dropping us into dark spaces without any emotional gravitas, real scares, smart twists or even B-movie fun.

The cast list tells the story: It includes such characters as 'Bra-Clad Sister,' 'Slutty Sister' and (for fans of 'The Man Show'?) 'Trampoline Sister.'
| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Sep 21, 2009
Sorority Row is most successful at creating characters even more insufferable than the usual young people who serve as slasher-flick fodder.
| Original Score: 2/4 | Sep 18, 2009
