Trivia
This movie is similar to the 1930s Myrna Loy classic Thirteen Women, which is considered by some to be the very first slasher movie. It is about a woman who is rejected from a sorority and gets revenge by causing the murders of all of its members.

Goofs
(at around 1h 13 mins) When Vicki is killed, her demise comes as Mrs. Slater's cane comes down upon her left eye socket, spurting blood as it impales. When Dr. Beck and Kathryn discover Vicki and Liz's bodies in the open grave at Park View Cemetery, Vicki only possesses her chest and back wounds, no eye damage.

Quotes
Pig: I'm a sea pig...

Crazy credits
The mechanical tick of Eric's jack-in-the-box plays on as the ending credits role.

Alternate versions
The uncut version has been re-released here since. The uncut original version of the film was finally released in the UK (as "House On Sorority Row") by Hollywood DVD in 2002.

Typical 80's horror slasher film of girls and a secret twist!

"The House on Sorority Row" an 80's slasher flick has now become somewhat of a cult classic and midnight viewing event, and it does entertain and give chills in typical 80's manner. It has all the common things from the 80's horror films sex, nudity, blood, gore, and a past secret that twist. The story is pretty simple young college sorority girls who are just days away from graduation set out to throw one last surprise party and celebration, however the old lady the matron of the old house hides a horrible secret long buried away in memory. After a freak accident one by one bodies and deaths start to happen all are on the brink of madness and decay! Overall okay 80's horror film that flew under the radar give it a watch if you like that decade and the genre of skin and gore.
