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

Welcome to Skank Ho sorority, where you'll skills like covering up the grotesque death of one of your sisters during a mean-spirited prank.

A fairly traditional collegiate slasher that entertains but breaks no new ground.

I don't know what could make this movie seem dumber. Oh, and it's also a remake of What You Did Last Summer

After these Bratz dolls dump the Corpsey One down a mine shaft, the plot follows, dropping us into dark spaces without any emotional gravitas, real scares, smart twists or even B-movie fun.

The cast list tells the story: It includes such characters as 'Bra-Clad Sister,' 'Slutty Sister' and (for fans of 'The Man Show'?) 'Trampoline Sister.'

Sorority Row is most successful at creating characters even more insufferable than the usual young people who serve as slasher-flick fodder.

Unexciting remake of the cheapo 1993 slasher film.

A movie that starts with a trampoline pillow-fight and ends with a pile of dead co-eds could have been a misogynistic mess, but Sorority Row is a snappy, bloody blast.

It's Scream minus the wit and verve, with poor Carrie Fisher lost as the cantankerous house mother.

Ruined by Hendler's pointlessly artsy direction, a stab at postmodern snarkiness and an unconscionable 101-minute running time.

It’s yet another ’80s slasher remake, so you know the drill...er, the tire iron pimped out with blades.

Any film that trashes the talent of Carrie Fisher is a loser in my book and this one stomps up and down on her talent. Don't worry Carrie, I still remember Leia.

Call me the sarcastic sister, but the only thing screaming in any convincing way here are the cheap look, epileptic direction, and off-key, “edgy” humor.

Retitled this to I Know What You Did at That Sorority Party with That Tire Iron.

little more than an unconscious projection of the filmmakers' simultaneous desire for and deep fear of grotesquely overprivileged and snarky girls gone wild

Sorority Row is an interminable mess of a film that juggles more characters and undeveloped subplots than it can handle and even manages to bungle the setup.

The tedious flick offers little more than a few scares, and plenty of boobs. And we're not just talking about the cast.

The “scary’’ moments are of the sneak-up-on-you-from-behind variety, but there’s little suspense.
