Sorority Row

SORORITY ROW DVD Review

by Michael Sullivan    Posted: March 9th, 2010 at 10:09 am

Horror aficionados expect a select set of conventions to be executed well for a slasher film to be considered “good.”  We expect certain types: the slut, the jock, the token ethnic person (Asian, in this case) and their early demise, the “final girl,” etc.  We expect a number of red herrings.  We expect some exploitative elements–the nudity and violence.  We even appreciate a few genuine scares, though even that’s not crucial (horror aficionados are too jaded to get genuinely scared anyway).

So does Sorority Row deliver on these counts?  The answer’s less simple than you think.  Find out why after the jump.

Weekend Box Office – Tyler Perry’s I CAN DO BAD ALL BY MYSELF Leads a Slow Weekend with $24 Million

by Nicole Pedersen    Posted: September 13th, 2009 at 10:23 am

I admit it: I never see Tyler Perry coming.  The writer/director who has watched six of his eight feature films open at number one at the domestic box office always sneaks up on me somehow.  So while I was busy watching “Inglourious Basterds” crawl past $100 million this week, Perry’s latest Madea-melodrama had an unchallenged run at the top spot once again.  Meanwhile, other new releases like the Kate Beckinsale thriller “Whiteout” had less success finding a fanbase, leaving “I Can Do Bad” to rack up $24 million for Perry’s third-highest opening to date.

	Title	Weekend	Total
1	I Can Do Bad	$24,000,000	$24,000,000
2	9	$10,900,000	$15,264,000
3	Inglourious Basterds	$6,546,000	$104,309,000
4	All About Steve	$5,800,000	$21,812,000
5	Final Destination	$5,500,000	$58,258,000
6	Sorority Row	$5,268,000	$5,268,000
7	Whiteout	$5,100,000	$5,100,000
8	District 9	$3,600,000	$108,517,000
9	Julie & Julia	$3,300,000	$85,360,000
10	Gamer	$3,150,000	$16,120,000

Rumer Willis and Jamie Chung Exclusive Video Interview SORORITY ROW

by Steve 'Frosty' Weintraub    Posted: September 10th, 2009 at 9:20 am

Opening tomorrow is “Sorority Row” and it stars Briana Evigan, Leah Pipes, Rumer Willis, Jamie Chung, Audrina Patridge, and Carrie Fisher. The film is about five sorority girls that inadvertently cause the murder of one of their sisters in a prank gone wrong. They agree to keep the matter to themselves and never speak of it again, so they can get on with their lives. This proves easier said than done, when after graduation a mysterious killer goes after the five of them and anyone who knows their secret…

Anyway, I recently spoke to Rumer Willis and Jamie Chung. During the interview, we talked about what they did on set, working with Carrie Fisher, the promotional process, filming in Pittsburgh, and Jamie talks about what she’s had to do for Zack Snyder’s “Sucker Punch”. Watch the interview after the jump:

New Posters for BAD LIEUTENANT: Port of Call New Orleans, SORORITY ROW and WHERE THE WILD THINGS ARE

by Steve 'Frosty' Weintraub    Posted: September 4th, 2009 at 11:14 am

Three new posters for “Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans”, “Sorority Row” and Spike Jonze “Where the Wild Things Are” have hit the internet and rather than post separate articles on each one, I’ve placed all of them in one place. Am I lazy? Yes. But it’s a lot easier to see them this way.

Of the three posters, the only one that could end up on my wall is “Where the Wild Things Are”. I cannot see this movie soon enough. Anyway, click the jump to check out the posters:

2009 San Diego Comic-Con Schedule for THURSDAY and PREVIEW NIGHT Featuring AVATAR, NEW MOON, TRON, KICK-ASS and MORE!

by Matt Goldberg    Posted: July 9th, 2009 at 2:58 pm

Last year was my first time visiting Comic-Con. This year I am ready. I am pumped. I am bringing a large bodyguard who will push tiny nerds out of my way so I can grab more swag.

The official Comic-Con website has just posted the schedule for Thursday and for Wednesday’s “Preview Night”, which you can only attending if you’ve purchased a four-day pass. Friday and Saturday tend to be the Con’s biggest days with the largest events but Thursday and Sunday are no slouches. I’ve included the full schedule for Thursday, July 23rd after the jump and highlighted what I think may be worth your time (although my interests skew more towards movies and television as opposed to comics, action figures, and games).  Keep checking back as the schedules for Friday, Saturday, and Sunday will most likely be announced over the next few days.

Oh, and if you need an explanation for the hard-hat in the image above, click here.
