tonight's feature: Sorority House Massacre (1986) on Shudder
Sorority House Massacre wants to be Halloween (the film) so bad it can taste it. It's got a psychotic killer escaping from the mental hospital heading back home to do some more killing, but without all the style and terror of the 1978 classic. There's a family connection and a lot of nightmare dream sequences for our young heroine, but the plot drags and the dialogue is juvenile. The characters are about as compelling as a box of old socks.
There are a few topless shots for the teenagers, then finally bad Bobby arrives and the stabbings begin. It's not Shakespeare but not as bad as a lot of other bottom of the barrel horror, and for the 1980s it's pretty on point. Just needs its own Dr. Sam Loomis. 6 safety ladders out the window that aren't so safe out of 10.
