LeftSideCut (3778 KP) rated Sorority Babes in the Slimeball Bowl-O-Rama (1988) in Movies
Aug 21, 2020
Sorority Babes in the Slimeball Bowl-O-Rama is without a shadow of a doubt, the kind of flaming garbage that you can't help but kind of like, a perfectly imperfect 80s horror that has just about enough silliness to make it watchable.
This means that the dialogue is balls awful, the effects are laughably cheap, and the films title is obviously miles better than the actual film.
It's directed by David DeCoteau (a phrase that doesn't exactly carry a stamp of excellence) which usually means that you're in for an underwhelming experience that borders on softcore porn, which is an accurate assessment in this case. Sorority Babes also doesn't really have any gore just to put the cherry on top, however, it still has a sort of shitty charm to it.
Despite all it's faults, it does feel like a moment in time, and firmly wedges itself into the pile of 80s horror that I could happily watch again, just for the ridiculous-ness of it all. It also stars genre scream queens Linnea Quigley, Brinke Stevens, and Michelle Bauer which is always a plus. There's a even a small role from George "Buck" Flower and the soundtrack is fucking great (fight me).

I could watch this on infinite loop until I'm dead
I've watched this movie twice in as many days because it is the kind of bad that is wonderful. I don't know how I missed this one as a teenager, as everything involving witchcraft was interesting to me then. Think of The Covenant as a spiritual successor to The Craft, but with boys. And there are boys. This movie is one fuzzy sex scene away from being a David DeCoteau film. Notable features are an all male shower scene filled with foggy butts, Sebastian Stan (who's nineteen or twenty years old here) stumbling over a line regarding another kid's penis (after being called a homosexual slur) and, last but not least, the line, "I'm going to make you my weyotch." It's a gem.
The plot is blah, the music is alright, and it has the mid-noughts "blue and orange" filter--but that's not why you're watching this movie. You're watching it because the actors are hot, there's not-so subtle gay subtext (though if Sebastian Stan's character kisses another guy, is it really subtext?), and latent homoeroticism. The whole stinkin' thing could be an allegory for homosexuality, but really, I don't think anyone was thinking that far ahead.
Also, there's a character named Pogue Perry. Pogue. As in, rhymes with "vogue." My boyfriend couldn't stop laughing, and he was only half watching it to humor me.

Horrible acting (2 more)
Weird props (I'll get into it)
Looooooong scenes and establishing shots
So bad it's good?
This is a horrible movie but it's 1 of those movies that are so bad it's actually good? Good is a strong word though, it's funny to pick out scenes to laugh at.
It starts with a scene where a guy gets dropped off by a car and then walks for 15 minutes to a house which goes on and on (could have easily been dropped off at the house) I can tell this movie is going to be exhausting.
The director, David decoteau returns to the same house he uses in every one of his movies. Same furniture, same props. It's almost a running gag now.
The props they use are weird. There is a beehive someone is attending to is just a bunch of office boxes while the guy is wearing what looks like one of those white outfits that painters and forensic scientists wear.
The CGI on the bees is horrible and the acting is terrible. It's easy to laugh at but you find yourself feeling exhausted when they spend 20 minutes showing a guy rubbing his body on a bed (it's like 5 minutes with the same moves repeating) and a 10-15 minute shower scene.
You cringe and you can't wait for it to end but grab some popcorn, get some friends over and just laugh at this because I did have fun watching despite how boring it is. It was mostly all out if confusion tbh lol
I'd still recommend giving it a try just for a laugh. I still don't know the exact plot, I don't know any of the characters names, I don't know what's happening half the time but as long as you laugh, it's worth it.
