The House on Sorority Row (1983)



The House on Sorority Row is a cult classic in the horror genre known as an American slasher film, directed by Mark Rosman. The plot follows seven young sorority sisters who pull a cruel prank on their strict house mother, Mrs. Slater (Lois Kelso Hunt). The prank involved one of the sorority girls pointing a gun to threaten Mrs. Slater but her heart gave out and she died. Covering up the body of Mrs. Slater, the sorority sisters now have time and the ability to throw a graduation party they always wanted but weren’t allowed. During the graduation party, guests are being targeted along with seven sorority sisters. Little did they know that Mrs. Slater had a disfigured and mentally challenged son, Eric (Charles Serio) who lived in the attic and witnessed the prank.  Eric is now out for revenge. The film is a classic slasher film from the 80’s and has all the criteria for being a cult classic as the sorority sisters think Mrs. Slate was not dead and is getting revenge. Eric is now on the prowl as only one survivor is left to defeat his malicious intentions. The House on Sorority Row needs to be in your horror collection and is a cult masterpiece. Released and re-mastered in widescreen with extras, The House on Sorority Row has been released on BluRay on a 2-Disc set by Scorpion Releasing and is not one to pass up on. It can be purchased through Amazon or directly from Scorpion Releasing as a limited edition to 2200 prints.
