Description: One of my childhood favorites, The House on Sorority Row is without a doubt a diamond in the rough of the slasher sub-genre. Although it can’t be compared to the classics, it still holds up very well. I don’t understand why this one got overlooked when it should be considered one of the best of the 80’s.
When it comes to slashers, there are way too many bad ones out there and I’ve seen them all. But this one really stands out among the garbage with it’s above-average writing and acting (for this type of movie anyway), great professional-looking directing (instead of the usual horrible b-movie camera work that seems typical for a slasher) likable characters and an interesting plot. It was obviously heavily influenced by Black Christmas, but that’s definitely a good thing. The deaths aren’t really too special here but still enjoyable to watch anyway with a nice amount of gore. It even gets pretty suspenseful towards the end as well. So it may be considered to be a tad cliché, but overall, it’s too good for you to actually care. This one’s DEFINITELY worth a look if you’re a slasher fan who’s sick of all the same old crap
Review: The House On Sorority Row is, in my opinion, one of the best of the 80’s slashers. It’s criminally underrated. The director, Mark Rosman, was actually the protégé of Brian De Palma, and it really shows. I don’t want to go too far and say this is a classy slasher, but it certainly seems to have been made with plenty of heart and style. It’s leagues above most of the other slashers of the time. It’s tons of fun from start to finish.
