I love how hilariously subdued the soundtrack and sound design are with this movie; had Brandon not been calling the fake scares, I would not have seen half of them coming (hell, a couple would not have even registered with me at all) because none of what I heard felt like a proper music sting to me, even with my earbuds in at full volume. Also, I'm really digging the new ending theme :3
Even with proper stings, I don't think a lot of these would qualify. There's gotta be more to a fake scare than just "turning around and finding someone who was just off-camera". At least throw a cat.
As goofy and generic as this movie is, I really enjoy it. It's everything a slasher fan wants in like 75 minutes. It's not the best, but it's like slasher junk food. It's not really doing you any favors, but you just can't help but enjoy it. Funny review as usual. I hope to see more slasher reviews from you this year! Dig up something a little more obscure ;)
The orderly that doesn't look like Neil Hamburger is Robert Axelrod most know for playing Lord Zedd in Power Rangers. He also did mutiple voices for Digimon and ia a regular actor in Tim and Eric shows.
The blonde woman in the poster artwork is actress Suzee Slater. She does not appear in the actual film. Originally titled "Simply Sorority". Carol Frank was Assistant Director on The Slumber Party Massacre (1982) prior to writing and directing this feature. There are several similarities between the two films, both of which feature a group of young woman being targeted by an anonymous male killer while having a party in a house with no adult supervision, where their boyfriends show up, and they barricade the bedroom door with a dresser to keep the killer out, only for him to make his way into the room through the window. There is even a scene where they are watching The Slumber Party Massacre (1982) on TV. Many viewers have also noted similar plots to that of Halloween (1978) and Halloween II (1981). When Henkel escapes from the hospital he jumps a fence. As he is climbing you see barbed wire on top. In the next shot the barbed wire is gone.
Love the videos man, glad you're making so many recently! Also, if you haven't seen Surf Nazis Must Die, it's a treat. Ebert walked out in the first half hour.
Sometimes I think the whole slasher sub-genre is financed by the gun industry. "You won't have to be scared by the slow-moving nut wielding a knife/ax/machete/other-sharp-pointy-thing, when you have... a GUN!"
@@LMANJINA If true all the more reason he should do it. That's also why he needs to review Godzilla's Revenge already! It's a Godzilla movie with 2 Kennies! And I had to see it so I have to inflict this pain on others
Holy shit one of those orderlies at 3:39 is Robert Axelrod. He would end up voicing some villain from Power Rangers I believe it was, but more importantly, became one of those older actors that appear in various Tim & Eric productions, most notably Check It Out with Dr Steve Brule (as Terry Bruge Hiplo)
At 11:56 anybody else notice the stair banister visibly moving when they are being chased upstairs? Was this filmed in a real home or on a cheezy set with low production values?
1:20 No furniture, but the house does come pre-hot-boxed. 3:07 Is there a sweater that goes with that? Like, even theoretically? 3:48 Is this woman on quaaludes? She reacts to a murderer breaking reality like she just observed a rabbit of a slightly unusual colour. 4:07 "Attack of the Boom Mics". Tell me you wouldn't watch it. 5:27 "Pensacola, Florida; Open for Business! (Brought to you by the Pensacola Florida Chamber of Commerce)" 5:38 I'm not sure what to make of this movie being directed by a woman and yet having the most casual, clinical nudity ever. I've seen sexier anatomical charts. Was this some kind of subtle rebellion on her part? "You want nudity? Here's nudity, dick; good luck whacking-it to *that*!". 5:49 Since they have a psychic connection, the orderly should have found the killer also dancing about to an '80s fashion-montage beat. Or maybe the killer could hear the music, hence, y'know, the killing. 5:57 "The ketchup packets I was storing on the back of my head, all destroyed! YOU MONSTER!!!" 6:19 "What do Skinnerians get?" "Electroshock". 8:09 "... and he MINED FOR BAUXITE!" 10:10 When you find a mysterious, paranormal weapon that may have been involved in a well-known grisly murder, it's vital that you get as many fingerprints on it as possible before you give it to the cops. 10:32 Equally important to be sure that, when being murdered well-within earshot of many friends, you keep absolutely quiet about it so they can't help you and you can't warn them. 10:41 They also told her she's a chicken, as they needed the eggs. 10:46 That whole giant house was for one family? Are they the McCallisters or something? Why does this lady need a sorority berth when she could probably buy the whole property? 11:34 "He cut the phone-line! Oh, how will we ever alert the cops now, stranded as we are in desolate suburbia with neighbours on every side?!" 12:15 "Keep whispering, or the Johnsons next door might hear us and destroy the script's already tissue-thin reasoning for pretending we're in actual danger!" 13:53 At least this lady's got almost the right idea; when the inhuman threat is down, keep hitting it until you see a vital organ go splat, and give it few extra whacks for luck even then. I don't care how immortal he is; he's not getting back up if you hack-off his legs, or smush the motor-functions region of his brain (or both).
8:00 I do wonder if the "you're not an idiot, you're a moron" joke was a reference to the fact that both used medically to describe different levels of low IQ.
One of the things about Nightmare on Elm Street, is that its a move that has legtimeatly good Cinemtography, it looks dreamlike and werid, and Freddy legitmeatly creepy. Not seing that here. This one looks like at one point it had an intresting script but maybe being a Corman movie there was an urge to rush it out really hurt it.
Why do so many slasher movies assume a single stab wound is enough to immediately kill a person? Unless you puncture a vital artery or organ the person is still going to be able to either run or fight for a fair amount of time before they eventually lose consciousness to blood loss. Hell, I recently heard a story about a woman who was stabbed a total of 120 times and it still took her about 10 minutes before she succumbed to her injuries.
Yo, Brandon. I don't know if the TH-cam comment wall is the best comunication vehicle, but have you considered to review the delightfully awkward Sinbad and the Eye of the Tiger?
Since this video's about a slasher film I guess it's fair to ask- ever considered doing one of the more contested Friday the 13th films like Jason Lives? I'd like to get into the series since the new game that's coming out looks awesome, but I'd like to know which ones that actually star Jason are the best (I've already seen the first movie)
8:48 I'm not sure a creepy guy lunging into a women and laughing like a rapist while holding her down should be called a "fake scare". Or wait, is that a man coming down the stairs?
Man! The coloring in all these low budget 80's slasher flicks makes the image look so flat... At least Halloween, Friday the 13th and Nightmare on Elm Street had way better lighting...
The use of Greek letters in the title is actually kind of clever, but the pedantic language nerd in me can't help thinking that the title must actually be pronounced "Sthrthritps Hthuse Massacre".
my god you can make a drinking game from the fake scares in this movie. Also I expect beth to make out with one of the other girls if she's afraid of a penis. Great video Brandon
"The barbed wire on their fence immediately disappears the moment somebody climbs it". that's for sure an ADT installation job.
😢😢😮😮😢mjokkk😅😅😮😢
5:27 Sorority House Massacre was filmed in live audience in a Studio
No.. Not enough neon. Then it would be REAL 80's fashion.
Maniac Cop would be great to see you review.
“He’s not missing he’s gone”
WTF who says that
“And if you ask me you’re not an idiot, you’re a moron”
I love how hilariously subdued the soundtrack and sound design are with this movie; had Brandon not been calling the fake scares, I would not have seen half of them coming (hell, a couple would not have even registered with me at all) because none of what I heard felt like a proper music sting to me, even with my earbuds in at full volume.

greed13X I KNEW IT!! Good catch - Great Job!
I was looking for a comment like this.
One of my favorite movie reviewers to watch. You should do C.H.U. D
The blonde woman in the poster artwork is actress Suzee Slater. She does not appear in the actual film.
Originally titled "Simply Sorority".
Carol Frank was Assistant Director on The Slumber Party Massacre (1982) prior to writing and directing this feature.

When Henkel escapes from the hospital he jumps a fence. As he is climbing you see barbed wire on top. In the next shot the barbed wire is gone.
>gets pissed off that it's not a 'Godzilla' review<
Wait, this has boobs? No worries, carry on good sir!
Wait, so you like Resident Evil too?! Jesus, you are the most underrated TH-camr of all time!
Hey don't tell me, tell your friends!
Brandon Tenold More so then ever.
Mystery Kid He'll get to it, be patient.
I seriously would punch multiple people to get a full release of the first Resident Evil movie's OST.
Brandon Tenold if we did that. We might lose you, Brandon. And we want you aaaaaaaall to ourselves...
More weird, unusual and strange film reviews? This is gonna be a great year.
Especially with an awesome slasher-film review
Hi Brandon!!! I love your videos!!! These movies are entertaining and fun! Thanks for making my day brighter!!!!!
Love the videos man, glad you're making so many recently! Also, if you haven't seen Surf Nazis Must Die, it's a treat. Ebert walked out in the first half hour.
the main girl in this has more of a 1980s Courtney Cox look a la "Misfits of Science"
Her hair sorta looks like it's trying to evolve into a "Rachel".
5:41 I do like how there's all these more pretty looking posters, and then in the corner is Dee Snider in all his hid metal glory.
Sometimes I think the whole slasher sub-genre is financed by the gun industry. "You won't have to be scared by the slow-moving nut wielding a knife/ax/machete/other-sharp-pointy-thing, when you have... a GUN!"
You should do The Last Slumber Party. Watched that on Rifftrax, it's utterly incomprehensible.
Actually in the original widescreen aspect the boom mic and the magically appearing pants aren't there.
I spotted a Twisted Sister poster!
Great review man, keep it up! Btw when is that Lifeforce review coming? The suspense is killing me!
LMAO!!!! omg i love this guy's reviews, he's so funny, especially when im drunk or high... or both.
For some reason I had this confused with the house on sorority row
Fun fact the girl who asked about the sweater Also stars in Adam Sandler movies.
Boy we're still waiting on that Pieces review you sort-of promised in your Slaughter High review
Pieces was fuckin weird man. Mainly the start and finish
@@LMANJINA If true all the more reason he should do it. That's also why he needs to review Godzilla's Revenge already! It's a Godzilla movie with 2 Kennies! And I had to see it so I have to inflict this pain on others
@@SuperSwordman1 Oh yeah, he defintely needs to review Pieces, its perfect for the show. Its a really bad movie, but boy is it fun to watch.
Holy shit one of those orderlies at 3:39 is Robert Axelrod.

"4 fake out scares in under 3 minutes?! you can fuck off with that shit movie!" 😅😅
What was that odd music bit at the very end of the review?
Any hope that "Hardware" will be in a review this year?
At 11:56 anybody else notice the stair banister visibly moving when they are being chased upstairs? Was this filmed in a real home or on a cheezy set with low production values?
My god I love these movie reviews.
Any plans on reviewing Friday The 13th, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, etc?
my favorite show
love that you're back. oh man you are great.
I see this and I just think "Slashed by the BELL!". Now that would have been awesome.
nothing like the 80's,man. Love it and dig the reviews. just came across them. Dude, that Twisted Sister poster is fucking awesome!
Got to love Robert Axelrod :) There have been so many B Horror and Action movies where I have yelled to myself "Hey it's Lord Zedd"
I could be wrong but I think each time the teens watch something on the TV it’s random snippets of Slumber Party Massacre
The Deadly Mantis 1956 or the Creeping Terror which is really silly
Dude who made The Creeping Terror was a straight up sociopath with a messianic complex. How can such a scary guy make such a goofy horror movie?
1:20 No furniture, but the house does come pre-hot-boxed.
3:07 Is there a sweater that goes with that? Like, even theoretically?
3:48 Is this woman on quaaludes? She reacts to a murderer breaking reality like she just observed a rabbit of a slightly unusual colour.

part of my wants to see you make fun of the Grudge and Ring movies.
.....but then i wonder how much material would you have to work with.
Figures, Lord Zedd can't even keep track of a patient at his mental ward.
Rip John C Russel
1975-1997
(He played Bobby in this movie)
12:42 He probably has horror movie teleportation powers
8:00 I do wonder if the "you're not an idiot, you're a moron" joke was a reference to the fact that both used medically to describe different levels of low IQ.
9:43-Awesome, sometimes a movie just needs to be given the bird.
That made me lose my shit. :D
Hey, Brandon! There's a movie from Japan that you should review. It's called "Ninja vs. Alien". Check it out!
The three words we always want to hear from you.... "Til next time."
I was on your old channel glad to see you better than ever
Excellent video,happy new year.
can you review Gappa the tryphibion monster? or prophecy. . it's the one with the mutated bear and there's an axe-chainsaw fight in it
gojiralagan 1995 You're so right about Prophecy. I want to see him review that one to
I don't think this movie had enough fake scares.
Hilarious dude! keep up the good work
I think the 80's sitcom music is from a Mario game that never got released
*BEEEEEEEEEEEEEETHHHHH!*
I forget, was that from a Steven King film? I remember it from a Critic review.
Love seeing you review these strange films.
Brandon when you asked which movie this was going to try and be like why couldn't it be all of the above?
good start for the new year thank you
Great work, you´re awesome.
You should collab with Brad Jones.
I wonder if the survivor is the one who looks like the survivor in the bed at the beginning? So suspenseful!
I love the horror comedy Scream Queens but it kinda stole the plot. That being a killer going killing university students in sorotey
One of the things about Nightmare on Elm Street, is that its a move that has legtimeatly good Cinemtography, it looks dreamlike and werid, and Freddy legitmeatly creepy. Not seing that here.
This one looks like at one point it had an intresting script but maybe being a Corman movie there was an urge to rush it out really hurt it.
this movie was a lot of fun to watch saw it on a bootlegged website 5 years,just saw the rifftrax version on their website it was really funny
please review more horror movies.
Thank you
Great vid man keep up the good work

Yo, Brandon. I don't know if the TH-cam comment wall is the best comunication vehicle, but have you considered to review the delightfully awkward Sinbad and the Eye of the Tiger?
Nice outro
12:14 I'm pretty sure that's the ladder from Carnosaur
I think it would be awesome if you showed another Canadian exploitation film, but in July (because Canada Day and all)
I can't tell who Brandon impersonated better... Freddy Krueger or Scary Terry. :)
Damn thought it was house on sorority row
The only decade when teens and young women actively chose mom perms! Actually the guys did too. So terrible...
8:25: My Bloody Valentine... sort of
Please please do Student Bodies it a rare one but one of the best campy slashers
6:15 Aaaaah! The boom mic stalker is back!
Happy New Year dude
cool video. Really enjoyed it
3:36 Twin Towers in the poster! (on right)
I thought TP party meant they'd throw toilet paper in the trees.. 'Teepee' ooooohhhh
I clicked on this for the well developed plot in the thumbnail
Since this video's about a slasher film I guess it's fair to ask- ever considered doing one of the more contested Friday the 13th films like Jason Lives? I'd like to get into the series since the new game that's coming out looks awesome, but I'd like to know which ones that actually star Jason are the best (I've already seen the first movie)
Part IV is arguably the best. I'd recommend watching the first four, then six. Those are the best, IMO. But the first 8 in general are pretty classic.
Parts 2, 4, and 6 are the best entries of the series. Part 3 isn't as good, but watch it if you don't feel like you get burnt out.
Does december still qualify as a good month for horror movies ?
I don't see why not. Look at how many horror movies involve Killer Santa Claus.
Big shoulder pads were popular in the 80’s
6:43 Awesome, I lost it there. I remember this was a very bad movie.
The killers knife is the same one from scream
Whats that tune at the very end of the video?
more giant monsters
Ugh... Thanks for sitting through it for us.
House had a period of a man that was the funniest joke that ever heard ha ha ha
8:48 I'm not sure a creepy guy lunging into a women and laughing like a rapist while holding her down should be called a "fake scare".
Or wait, is that a man coming down the stairs?
It's a dude...
Yeah, watched that spot a few more times, it's still creepy though, and make no damned sense.
Get a grip.
Man! The coloring in all these low budget 80's slasher flicks makes the image look so flat... At least Halloween, Friday the 13th and Nightmare on Elm Street had way better lighting...
The use of Greek letters in the title is actually kind of clever, but the pedantic language nerd in me can't help thinking that the title must actually be pronounced "Sthrthritps Hthuse Massacre".

If this film had been made within the last 15 years there would be at least two lesbian scenes.
Am I wrong?
look out for that stalking boom-mike
8/10/2022
I just watched this movie on
TUBI
Brandon
for real bruh
review Wild Zero!
