And... Sorority House Massacre II

Znep wasn't kidding. This movie has a lot of boobs and it's 10 times better than the first... on account of the boobs. Jim Wynorski seemed to be pretty fond of them, and what a gratuitous thing that can be. Also fun fact, this movie was produced in a week, and ol' Jim never saw the first movie.

With that said, this movie has nothing to do with the last movie. They threw all that psychic-drama and backstory away to put five busty college girls into a separate sorority house with its own massacre history... a history of a parallel Slumber Party Massacre.

The story is relayed to them by the greasy neighbor Orville Ketchum, played by the dude in Freddy's Dead who wanted some sugar from his daughter. The scene he describes uses footage from Slumber Party Massacre, jumping into a few kill scenes after deeming those characters members of the killer's family. It's weird for a flashback to tell me a different story than what I'm used to.

So anyway... that creep finishes his story and leaves the babes in peace so they can party, only after having spooked them, of course. Naturally, they turn to the ouija board, but forget about that for now. What happens at this point is that these wonderful women strip down to their undies and explore the house whilst bouncing around with their nipples poking through.



Part of me wants to leave this review at that, but I suppose I should go on to talk about the actual slasher elements. Our killer is already poised to be dead and buried by the time this movie starts, so someone is here to pick off the girls one by one, but who? The kills are vague for ambiguity, though our killer uses a hook like the fisherman or candyman (but before both) and in the end... the balance of shitty b-horror tropes, charm, and titties is ample.

I'd probably rank this one a touch higher than the first one, but they're both good for separate reasons. This sequel is more cheesy whereas the first is more serious. And on a final note... Orville Ketchum is a great character. I got a lot of laughs out of him. Laughs that kept coming back.
