VarietyRussell Edwards
An average slasher picture that meanders indecisively between gore and gags. Read full review

EmpireKim Newman
Even the gratuitous nudity can't quite save a Heathers-goes-to-college horror that's undermined by a silly plot and clunky dialogue. Read full review

The Hollywood ReporterFrank Scheck
There's little to distinguish this from the rest of the entries coming down the horror film assembly line, though the presence of Carrie Fisher as a shotgun-toting housemother who taunts the killer by shouting "Come to mama!" offers some camp value. Read full review

Los Angeles TimesKevin Thomas
It lapses into that familiar category of movies that go in for lots of fancy obfuscation along the way only to make its story seem all the more simple, trite and contrived by the finish. Read full review

Time OutAaron Hillis
In this breeding ground for date rape and HPV, there are some trashy kicks in seeing horrible people get theirs, plus housemother Fisher goes all buck wild with a shotgun. Read full review

The New York TimesStephen Holden

L.A. WeeklyMichelle Orange
Call me the sarcastic sister, but the only things screaming in any convincing way here are the cheap look, epileptic direction and off-key, “edgy” humor. It’s all so ‘80s, I could die. Read full review

The A.V. ClubSteven Hyden
Sorority Row might be utterly lacking in suspense, surprises, and wit, but nobody can say it doesn’t have a hero. Read full review

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

Boston GlobeJonathan Perry
Follows the imaginatively bankrupt trend of remaking slasher films from the 1970s and ’80s. This time, it’s a regurgitation of Mark Rosman’s “The House on Sorority Row.’’ Read full review

Austin ChronicleMarc Savlov
Brings absolutely nothing new to the autopsy table that wasn't previously covered. Read full review
