Secrets on Sorority Row

Sorry to steal their line, but another reviewer hit the nail on the head -- the most redeeming factor of this one was the "double twist" at the end.

It's a "sorority" Lifetime movie, so you know what you're getting (not necessarily a bad thing), and a "see it coming from a mile away" ending is just part of the deal. However, this one did a good job at twisting the screw one extra time at the end in a way I never saw coming. For that, plus decent performances and nice cinematography, it's worth a watch.

Also worth noting, the bizarre and way out of place "nightmare" sequence that was straight out of a horror movie. Ineffective and just weird for this type of movie.

It had great potential but very predictable right from the get go. I kept thinking it was far too obvious and hoped there would be some other twist at the end, but no. It ended exactly as I expected it to.

Overall was still an enjoyable and easy little thriller to watch though. I thought from the opening scene it was going to be bad acting because the actors are playing themselves in the past as students and they looked really old, it didn't really work. But when it moved on to the present day afterwards, they did a good job. A little over dramatic in places with some over the top and random freak outs. But if you can put that aside, the rest of it worked and flowed well.

Not the best of its kind, but definitely not the worst either. But then I quite enjoy the budget thrillers. Perfect to watch of an afternoon while you're doing the ironing. You don't need to pay too much attention to keep up.

This Lifetime movie was one of the better Sorority movies. It actually had a good story and plot. As others have commented on the twists, the ending was good. There have been some pretty bad acting lately in other Lifetime movies, but not here. Give it a watch and you might also like Who's Killing the Cheerleaders. Another good one!

I wasn't sure what to expect with another sorority movie from Lifetime. Seems like they've been cranking out a lot of them these days. But this one was surprisingly refreshing with some very talented unknowns who won't be for long! Lucy/Miranda actress Taylor Hanks was especially good.

This film begins in 1997 with two friends named "Michelle" (Kristi Murdock) and "Kelly" (Holly Tatem) enrolling at a university and trying to join a sorority together. Unfortunately, during the initiation, Kelly consumes too much alcohol and accidentally falls down the stairs, leading to her death. The scene then shifts to 22 years later, with Michelle now a professor at that same university, feeling quite conflicted about her rebellious daughter "Quinn" (Kate Edmonds), who is now considering pledging to that same sorority. However, the issue is that Michelle isn't the only one with strong feelings about Quinn joining this sorority, as it soon transpires that there is a mysterious stranger who intends to punish everyone involved in that event 22 years ago. Now, rather than reveal any more, let me just say that this was one of those made-for-television movies that relied heavily on the element of mystery for its appeal--and it succeeded to a certain extent. Unfortunately, the plot was somewhat unrealistic, and the film lacked the necessary suspense for a production of this nature. At least, that is how it seemed to me. Be that as it may, while I don't consider this to be a bad film necessarily, the faults I just mentioned prevent me from rating it any higher than I have. Slightly below average.
