Rated: R [See Full Rating] for strong bloody violence, language, some sexuality/nudity and partying

Box Office: $11,915,856

It embarrasses me to say that Sorority Row entertained me considering its lack of scares and originality.

Imagine being trapped inside a pungent shoebox with the over-caffeinated morning shift of Forever 21 while an inept epileptic captures the small talk with a camera he lost the instruction manual for. That's Sorority Row.

Even the gratuitous nudity can't quite save a Heathers-goes-to-college horror that's undermined by a silly plot and clunky dialogue.

A booty-shakin’, text-messagin’, Facebook-referencin’ multiplex moneyspinner for undemanding twenty-first-century teens.

A tooled-up Fisher always adds instant value to any movie. If only she could be arsed to script-doctor them all too.

Over 100 long minutes, as each is murdered by an unseen assailant, the movie’s job is to draw empathy from the audience for its harem of harridans. It doesn’t work.

Sisters are doing it for themselves in this jolly college horror flick – if by "it" you mean horrible slaughter and softcore nudity.

Glossy, gorgeous to look at and filled with 'jump'-in-your-seat moments, this has all the hallmarks of a popcorn horror movie, complete with the ubiquitous shower scene, creepy abandoned cellars and characters' humorous nods to their own stupidity.

The combination of gore and giggles can work. But where Scream was funny and knowing and peppered with genuine scares, Sorority Row seems happy merely to play dumb and make a joke of its own derivativeness.

In spite of a peppy pace and speckles of inspiration here and there, Sorority Row feels empty and laborious when it should be fun, insincere when it should be earnest. Much like the sisters of Theta Pi, a brain couldn't have hurt, too.

A deeply uninspired re-hash of I Know What You Did Last Summer and Prom Night.

This would be just another breasts-and-blood teen horror if it wasn't for the inclusion of one of the most amusing bitchy characters for some time.

An old-style stalker-slasher movie of no great distinction.

I'm not sure there's any point to this beyond an invitation to ogle teenage girls in their underwear, running and screaming.

Sorority Row isn't remotely scary, but it's still a lot more fun than it ought to be thanks to strong performances and a witty, terrifically bitchy script.

It's a five-star one-star movie, combining style and flair with almost no substance whatsoever. As such, it deserves a solid three stars and a hearty thumbs up as this week's most entertaining mainstream release.

Simultaneously knowing and clueless, the script has the try-hard feel of someone attempting to update the savage teen talk of Heathers, while the plot unfurls as if Scream never happened.

"Sorority Row" is so completely (and thankfully) forgettable that you will be hard-pressed to remember much of it by the time you hit the parking lot

It is so close to achieving above-trashy status that it's even more disappointing when it sinks in that nothing you've seen makes sense.

The young'uns and fairly squeamish in your audience may succumb to the two decent jump scares you'll find within, but expect nothing more...a case study of a wasted opportunity in R-rated horror.
