A Note...

... to our loyal readers.

Guy is in Sweden, currently, and Girl is in Canada. No, we did not split up, as one of you has commented, but we do come from different sides of the world and this tends to happen when you are stupid enough to get involved in a long distance relationship.

So! To those of you who are expecting this website to be kept up to date on a regular basis (even after the fact that this has never happened so far), you will be disappointed.

But! We will try to watch the same movies, and we will try to write reviews about them at some point, then try to post those reviews on a semi-timely basis... maybe.

Some of you may call this a stilted promise, but we just call it reality. Unlike Lindsay Lohan, we have our feet planted firmly in it.

SORORITY ROW




Girl's review...

One new kill in this movie, but no new twists. Same cheesy one-liners, but more of them and at inappropriate times. The music, the drama, the over-the-top parties... Made you wish they all ended up dead in the end.

Alas, no, this did not happen. Instead, three "strong" women march away from a burning house in slow motion at the end of the movie, half-clad in PJs and knee highs. Did I say that Whiteout was worse than this? I guess the cliche stereotypical characters and chiseled abs did something for me, then.

The poster is ridiculous.

Girl's rating: Watch it, if only for a brief laugh. It'll quickly pass through your system and you'll have forgotten about it in no time, don't worry.

Guy on sorority girls...

Yes, the slasher genre will never die. This time we have a bunch of girls that play a prank on a guy that cheated on one of their sorority sisters. They fake a girls death that he happened to make out with, drive her out in the middle of nowhere and tell the guy to find sharp rocks to dissmember the body with. Shit goes wrong and the guy stabs the fake-dead girl with a tire-iron in the chest. Yes, he stabbed someone with a tire-iron. The gang covers up the killing and throws the body in a well.

You might think this is a great setup for a funny and exciting slasher. It is, but we've seen it before in "I Know What You Did Last Summer". The killer in this movie actually wears a cape that look very similar to the costume from "Scream".

Now you know what you're getting and there is no need for me to comment on plot, acting or the direction of the movie. I will instead comment on some of the kills. Let's start out with my favorite. One of the girls in the movie fucks her psychatrist for meds. The killer corners her there and shoves a wine bottle down her throat making her choke. After this he thrusts his now enhanced tire-iron/super-murderweapon in to her neck. This apparently made blood bubble into the bottle. A kill I haven't seen before which makes it good.

I'm not gonna tell you guys who the killer is. The reason for this is because you'll never figure it out. The story behind why the killer gets rid of the sorority gals is so thin that there was almost no need for him to go on his rampage. On the other hand you're suppose to get these guesses wrong but there has to be some sort of quality control.

Guy's Rating: Not even worth watching for the chicks in it. Yeah, yeah call me gay but I'd rather watch a good movie instead.
