I just remember cringing at how awful it portrayed Greeks during a time with membership was really down.

Sure, it portrays both sorority life and witchcraft in a bad light, but the movie is still a lot of fun to watch.

I'm glad my sorority experience isn't like that. I'm pagan and didn't "go Greek" until in my late 40s.

Spooky house sister goes all "Carrie" on the popular house after they pelt her with mud and rotten tomatoes. Add in Shelley Winters, Morgan Fairchild (as the b****y popular sorority girl), a demon dog, then get some popcorn and let the good times roll!

It's even got MORGAN FAIRCHILD in it!!!! I'm guessing Jennifer Tilly will play one of the wicked witches. I just wonder if this will show up on LMN or WE.

Not sure if this has been said, but The Initiation of Sarah has been remade and will air on The Family Channel as part of their 13 days of Halloween. It stars the girl that played Cheyenne on Reba....(I'm incredibly embarrassed that I know this.)

Morgan Fairchild is in this version as well

ETA: If I had read the above post I wouldn't have posted this. Sorry!!

I saw this in my Tivo Guide!! Can't wait to watch it!

Anyway, I recently viewed "Sorority House" from 1939. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0031955/

Very sweet old-fashioned movie... I enjoyed it even though the girls end up not joining a sorority at the end. (Whoops, sorry about the spoiler!)

I think I've seen that move, like when I was little. Is there a scene where she's all bitter and talking with her grand father (maybe uncle?) and she and her friends discuss how they're going to exclude all the sorority girls from everything but then it's pointed out they'd be hypocrites??? Or something like that! It was a good movie if it's the same one.

Yup... that's the one!

It was the girl's father... and they were going to create an "anti-sorority," after none of them joined a sorority.
