Think college tests are tough? The Thetas are about to take a final exam where the stakes are not pass / fail but live / die. A surprisingly late entry in the Halloween knock-off craze, writer / director Carol Frank’s Sorority House Massacre is a hypnotic dream puzzle via slice ‘n dice slasher, equal parts Elm Street blurred reality and Michael Myers unstoppable terror, a potent & stylish mid-decade mind-melter packed wall-to-wall with teased hair, pastel fashion and outrageous attitude. While slow motion nightmares and ominous blood-fueled visions plague the new sorority sister, a crazed killer escapes a mental institution intent on striking again. Could the two be connected?
