Low budget horror with a primarily African-American cast set in a sorority. Sounded like good ingredients. It wasn't much fun.
The story involves a group of girls who have just purchased a new house for their sorority. We learn from the opening scene that in this house, a young girl killed herself because her boyfriend stood her up. After all the girls play with a Ouija board and get settled in, and after several guys sneak in to hook up with some of the girls, the killings start. The ghost of the girl comes after the guys and girls one by one.
Part of what made this hard to enjoy was the technical limitations. The audio was so low that it was really hard to hear everything. Some of the actors were actually doing a good job, behaving very naturally as if they were improvising. It didn't have that wooden, scripted feel that a low of low budget movies have. But their words were really low and muffled. Not only was it hard to hear, but I couldn't really make out what I was seeing a lot of the time. Almost every scene had some kind of colored tinting to it that obscured the actors faces. One shot has a girl running down a dark blue hallway, the next shot is the ghost moving through a dark orange background. I liked the girl who played the mean-spirited "queen bee" of the group, but they never really gave her anything to do except toss off a few insults and die. I can only guess that this movie wasn't that much fun to make, because it definitely isn't much fun to watch.
