[Once
again I'm going to attempt to do a horror(ish) movie review a day for
the entire month of October. I've done this the last few years on The
Cleveland Movie Blog. Most of the time I succeeded (usually with the
help of a few other writers). Other times I didn't. We'll see if I can
pull it off this year.]
Despite being an avid consumer of straight to video B movie
dreck in the eighties, somehow I never saw SORORITY
BABES IN THE SLIMEBALL BOWL-O-RAMA. Sometimes even for a movie maniac such
as myself, a classic will slip through the cracks. For example, I didn’t see SCARFACE until the 2000s, if you can
believe that. Anyway, I noticed a few friends of mine had been watching this
one recently (it’s on Shudder as part of Joe Bob Briggs’ “The Last Drive-In”),
and that proved to be the push I needed to finally check it out.
The plot is that sorority pledges Taffy (Brinke Stevens) and
Lisa (Michelle Bauer) have to break into a bowling alley and steal the trophy
as part of their initiation. This after sorority sister Babs (Robin Rochelle)
has already given them a gratuitous spanking while the only other two sorority
sisters – Frankie (Carla Baron) and Rhonda (Kathi O'Brecht) watch. Also
watching are a trio of nerdy dudes – Calvin (Andras Jones), Keith (John Stewart
Wildman), and Jimmie (Hal Havins).
