Sorority Row, one sheet, a pile of chicks?

Posted by Ms Harker | Filed under Horror Films, Uncategorized

I may be a little behind the news flow with this post, but I feel the need to express my thoughts about the one sheet/poster for the upcoming slasher flick ‘Sorority Row‘. The trailer came out in March and introduced the viewing public to one of MANY remakes hitting our theaters this year (the original film being ‘The House on Sorority Row‘).

The story is your typical teen prank gone wrong, whoops we killed out friend,  friend comes back to haunt and kill us all off one by one… or does she? The only thing of interest to me in this film is the role of Carrie Fisher as you will see from the trailer she goes down fighting Leia style, woman has got her stuff sorted and is a living legend, bring it Carrie, bring it!

Obviously the poster means to emulate a pile of good looking corpses yes? However I have an issue… I used to work with this guy who told me about an act, at lets call it an Erotic Dance establishment, where all the women in the show would pile on top of each other and they named this show stopper the ‘Block of flaps’, you know like a block of flats… but made of chicks.

Now I try not to be too crass for my readers but I honestly cannot take this poster seriously… I keep thinking of those girls, working hard for the money, so hard for it honey, piled on top of each other, creating what could be the eight wonder of the world. Its something I think I need to see in my lifetime and am yet to do so, however the image is fixed in my brain as I laughed hysterically about it for a week, so you can understand why I struggle with this poster.

    The shadows on the girls’ faces are all off and it makes some of them look like badly done up drag queens. Are they supposed to be dead or alive? They look bored, secretly thinking “I’m going to kill my agent for this!”
