Joe was great--I've noticed that she likes to write books about first loves and meeting them again years later. This must be the 3rd/4th I've read with that sort of storyline--and I liked the beginning where they spent a lot of time together. It was a little dark in places--Joe's brother--but also sweet at times.
I have to say that I think this book dragged a lot in the middle. There was a lot of bits that were irrelevant as far as I'm concerned, and that was probably why it's taken me so long to read.
Then we meet Lukas. He seems pretty normal to start with but the more of him we see the more controlling and demanding he became and I just wanted to scream at Alice. What was she doing?!
The ending was a little vague of names but it had to be Joe that she met. It had to be!

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).
