How sad is this?
If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.
One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.
The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
Which one was this? I can't really remember. I do, however, know it was the movie where they hire a lot of women and require them all to take their clothes off.I recall a shower scene in there somewhere.And then I remember the women running around screaming in undies that are really only worn in the bedroom.Was there a plot? Not really, it was just an excuse for nudity and undies.But, you already knew all of that when you sat down to watch this. Because, honestly in film making, they aren't really trying to pass it off as anything other than an excuse to film young naked breasts and you don't really get anything but that.So, why are you reading this? You know exactly what this movie is about. You knew that before you even clicked on this review.But, at least the review is as honest as the movie.If you are expecting more than that, there is something seriously wrong with you.
Sorority House Massacre 2 is an excellent example of how you can recycle the scenes from another film, in the hope that others haven't seen that other film, and use them to create a mythology that your story centers itself upon. In this case, several scenes are pilfered from the much superior "Slumber Party Massacre," except the teacher becomes the driller killer's wife, the girls that survive are his daughters, and the driller killer isn't "Russ Thorn," but is named something else completely.A sorority purchases a abandoned home, and while setting themselves up in it, they find a Ouija board and decide to invoke the sinister spirit of the maniac. And they succeed.One of the girls is possessed by the maniac, and goes on a killing spree, while the girls are convinced that its actually the big oaf of a next door neighbor that looks like he hasn't bathed in a year, and seems rather immortal in the number of times he's butchered and abused but still comes roaring back.I will say this for this film: it has a really clever trailer- cheap, but definitely one that invokes the interest of the viewer. And there are also a couple of scenes that are really surprisingly scary.
Five young sorority sisters have just bought a dilapidated old building which they plan on renovating and making into a new sorority house. For one reason or another, they go to the house on day and decide to stay overnight in the house to meet the movers the next morning. What follows is an endless tirade of clichés and male driven slumber party fantasies.I watched this one rainy afternoon while bored (right after Slumber Party Massacre no less)hoping for some campy fun - instead my intelligence was insulted. Lingerie, booze, Ouija boards, creepy neighbors and demonic possession all make an appearance within this 70 minutes of poor film making.The two things I found most irritating about this film were: 1.) The women in lingerie. I'm sorry boys, I hate to bust your fantasy, but we do NOT wear our sexy lingerie to slumber parties. That type of thing is usually saved for your viewing pleasure - not for our girls to see.2.) The footage stolen from "Slumber Party Massacre" and used as a back story. I'll give the director points for trying to separate this flick from its predecessor, but, please, don't insult the viewers. We know where that footage is from - and not everyone sees it as an homage - more as a blatant rip off.The acting was terrible as expected, but this movie is the epitome of the horror film cliché. We have a demonic possession and a slasher film loaded with T&A. A few reviewers have claimed that this is a satire/spoof but it doesn't give that impression to me. This film is watchable, if only to laugh at how ridiculous it is.
I liked and enjoyed "Sorority House Massacre II" because it goes directly to the point since minute 0 of running time.The movie's opening credits are cool enough. The music in the style of "Phantom Of The Opera" and the orange bright letters are indication of something. The movie follows the bright tone of the opening credits until the end.For about 90 minutes we have hot, and I mean HOT women in skimpy lingerie running around the house and some bar while escaping from a possessed butcher. That's all you have to know."Sorority House Massacre" is an entertaining 80's flick but it isn't for everyone who is into the Slasher genre. There is minimal gore, violence, or even suspense. True, the House is creepy enough but mainly because of the decent cinematography and correct use of lightning and thunders. It's also true that this movie fits better in the cheesy category because there isn't room for logic or common sense.So I would only recommend this movie for a teenager male audience who will be cheering our hot heroines anytime they run or scream.This is sexy material in the Slasher genre. Nothing more or less.Jim Wynorski created a decent cheesefest with lots of hot women. The man truly knows the business.Gail Harris and Melissa Moore are excellent. They are truly beautiful and had some skills to become scream queens. Too bad it didn't happen.
