Woodyanders A gaggle of sorority gals move into a rundown old house that turns out to be haunted by an evil force with the unnerving ability to tap into people's most shameful and nightmarish secrets. Director Henrique Couto, working from a compact and complex script by John Oak Dalton, relates the compelling story at a brisk pace, takes time to carefully develop the main characters so the viewer has a genuine emotional investment in their well being, makes excellent use of the titular creepy ramshackle abode, adroitly crafts a tense and spooky atmosphere, keeps the tone admirably dark and serious throughout, and even sprinkles in some tasty female nudity for tantalizing good measure. Moreover, it's nicely acted by an able and attractive cast, with especially praiseworthy contributions by Erin R. Ryan as the troubled and vulnerable Sherrie, Haley Madison as the sassy Melissa, Joni Durian as the sweet and sultry Alex, Brandi Baird as sarcastic geekette Kathryn, Mike Hilinski as wimpy nice guy Dave, and Eric Widing as obnoxious jerk Jim. Tara Clark cuts a suitably unnerving figure as a freaky naked ghost. Couto's crisp widescreen cinematography provides an impressive polished look, with neat use of titled camera angles and striking lighting. The shuddery score by Roland Thomas hits the spine-tingling spot. The diabolical way that the house uses people's fears and weaknesses against them gives this picture an extra unsettling edge. A solid scarefest.

titus78 This flick is a standout! Witty writing, great acting, suspense, terror, excitement, and fantastic direction make Haunted House on Sorority Row a movie not to miss! I had heard wonderful things about it from others who had seen it before me. So I was thrilled when I had the opportunity to purchase a copy at StebbinsCon 2014 AND get it autographed by Henrique and some of the film's stars! :-) I have seen it twice so far, and it just keeps getting better. It titillates the horror-hungry senses and whets the appetite for what creative delights may come next from Henrique Couto! I know *I'll* be watching and waiting for more from this impressive and talented filmmaker and his crew. I can't recommend it highly enough. Make sure you see this fantastic movie!!

Sammaeal Numine If you haven't checked out the films of Henrique Couto, do yourself a favor and go seek them out. While not my absolute favorite film of his (that honor will always be the first I saw, Depression: The Movie), it shows that the man and his stable of irregular regulars know exactly how to make no budget films that fire on all cylinders. This one is a ghost tale, or an urban legend, or a body horror, or a raunchy comedy. It all depends on how you look at it and which scene is playing now. It may sound jarring, but it actually works like gangbusters and manages the changes in pace and twists that come very well.The acting, direction, sound design and cinematography are all far above what you would expect from an indie film such as this, I encourage you to give it a try. You won't be disappointed.

jedispyder An excellent blend of horror and comedy. The background music gave it an 80s feel at times which fits with the type of movie, this would definitely have fit right in with other 80s horror movies (aka the best era of horror). There was a more psychological horror than physical horror and they nailed it perfectly, allowing you to watch as the characters slowly unravel into insanity.Similar to a lot of horror movies of this type, the movie was lacking in the male department as the focus was more on the girls. There were only 3 guys total and each was very different. Joe Kidd is just a small supporting role but he did well. Eric Widing was a typical frat-boy douche who you could tell had a blast acting in that way! Mike Hilinski played a normal guy who is trying to look good for a girl he's crushing on. I could definitely relate to his character, getting annoyed at the douche friend who was acting out and making him look bad.All the females were great, with different personalities for each. I've seen too many horror movies where all the females are written as generic and stereotypical but definitely not here.I enjoyed how the writing did not seem forced for the actors. The dialog was very casual and something you could expect yourself to say in those situations. Sometimes in horror movies there will be excessive cursing simply to have cursing, but that was not the case here.Only complaint? Who in their right mind tries to get spaghetti from a pot with a normal spoon?!? That's the most I can complain!
