An action-packed slog

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

When Dean Whitman (Eric Roberts) kills himself and his soul is transferred to a 12 inch clown doll. He vows to kill everyone at the Delta Pi sorority. We get to meet the various girls at the house and I missed twice on guessing the Final Girl. The plot has a little complexity centering around Allie (Jessica Morris) who dabbles in the black arts wishing to contact the Dark Lord to raise havoc on Eastern Europe and maybe England.The film is more comedy than horror. The lines are corny and cliché and at times spoofs the idiotic idea of a 12 inch anything being a killer. The humor is sexual. Bobo the clown talks and has a sense of humor. The film over does the suspense/thriller music rather loudly. Eric Roberts has a rant about sorority girls in the beginning that made me laugh. A fun film.Guide: 1-2 F-bombs/ sex heard and not seen/ no nudity...all tease.

Eric Roberts gets dumped by a student he is having an affair with. He doesn't take it well and shoots himself near a voodoo clown doll trapping his angry soul into the doll. The doll then sets out for revenge.David DeCoteau is bringing back his Puppet Master days with this 12 inch murdering clown. You get kind of a Black Devil Doll From Hell feel when you see the clown going up the stairs etc. This is probably one of his best films since the 90's mostly because he avoids his usual homo erotic elements and brings us a good old campy flick. He still avoids nudity in his films even though he was the king of nudity in the 80's and 90's. One thing of interest is listening to Eric Roberts do a Newton type voice from Hercules, when he is in the doll running around. Overall a stupid film but entertaining none the less and 7000 times better than his Evil Exhumed (2016).

Were you expecting a B film? Sorority Slaughterhouse is a D film. If you didn't know to keep your expectations low from the title, you should after watching the cheapest title sequence ever put to film.But you shouldn't be expecting much from a film called "Sorority Slaughterhouse." And the funny thing is that, as cheap as it is, I actually enjoyed it quite a bit.There's a little skin. There are a few ridiculous, low-budget deaths. Just like you'd expect. But past that, SS is actually fun, with well-written, well-acted, charming characters.Don't expect a masterpiece. It's not. But the fact that it was a little bit better than I expected was a pleasant surprise. I'm glad I took a chance on this.

OK, first of all, a little housekeeping. As of 10/22/16, the synopsis reads, "A group of sorority girls with bad pasts, including one who just committed murder wake up one morning to learn that they are locked inside their sorority house. What's worse is they find out that an escape murderer, is in that same house." That is a complete lie. The film is entirely different.Movie begins with Eric Roberts as Dean of a college, who has been having an affair with one of the students. He is on the phone with her as she breaks up with him, having sent him a 12" clown doll named "Bobo" as a "Breakup Gift." He doesn't take it too well, and starts ranting about "Making her and her sorority sisters pay, teasing men with their firm bodies... (etc)." He shoots himself, but his spirit ends up going into the clown doll. He decides to pay the sorority house a visit and kill everyone, and most of the movie is Bobo the clown doll stalking and killing the sorority sisters and the couple of boyfriends that are there.The film is a cousin to the Puppet Master series, but with tongue firmly in cheek. As with films of this type, it either hits you in the right spot or not. But it definitely hit me in the right spot. I laughed consistently while watching the "effects" (basically, Bobo stands there still or a hand just off camera makes him bounce up and down) while Eric Roberts voices the clown ("Hi! I'm Bobo and you're pissing me off!"). The actresses are all smoking hot and while, unfortunately, there is no nudity, the two hottest actresses spend just about their entire screen time in bikinis. Director David DeCoteau has been making low-budget flicks for over 30 years now, and so it's competently directed, well lit, with clear sound. And Eric Roberts' voice-overs of Bobo are a hoot.Definitely a guilty pleasure for me. But I guess I'm just a sucker for tongue-in-cheek horror comedies with a twelve-inch clown puppet as the villain.
