    Storyline

    Did you know

    • Trivia
      This movie is similar to the 1930s Myrna Loy classic Thirteen Women, which is considered by some to be the very first slasher movie. It is about a woman who is rejected from a sorority and gets revenge by causing the murders of all of its members.
    • Goofs
      (at around 1h 13 mins) When Vicki is killed, her demise comes as Mrs. Slater's cane comes down upon her left eye socket, spurting blood as it impales. When Dr. Beck and Kathryn discover Vicki and Liz's bodies in the open grave at Park View Cemetery, Vicki only possesses her chest and back wounds, no eye damage.

    • Crazy credits
      The mechanical tick of Eric's jack-in-the-box plays on as the ending credits role.
    • Alternate versions
      The uncut version has been re-released here since. The uncut original version of the film was finally released in the UK (as "House On Sorority Row") by Hollywood DVD in 2002.
