Deadly Dorm

Perhaps the greatest line ever uttered in cinema, when the pompous professor played by Randy Wayne eyes the young lead actress's outfit and smarms, "Nice outfit. What do you call it... Frumpy tracksuit?"

This movie is a mess. Things don't add up. Characters emotions change on a dime. The stock footage shot of the college campus is used DOZENS of times as a bandaid to cover up story / editing issues. The blame should all fall on the shoulders of a poor script and awkward narrative. Now that that's out of the way, let's discuss Randy Wayne...

I've seen this guy a few times over the years. Pretty sure I remember him from that straight-to-video 'Dukes of Hazzard' sequel in the mid-2000s. Never thought much of him, until this film. Wow. He hams it up like crazy. Every word out of his mouth is uber-smarmy (like the above "frumpy" line), creating a performance that is both embarrassing but fun. I don't feel bad saying this, because I'm 99% sure he was in on it and just crafted the cheesiest performance possible.

And for that alone, the movie was worth watching.

(I was laughing SO HARD at the delivery of the "frumpy tracksuit" line, but I just about fell off my couch when a character later recalled and REPEATED that same line back -- "What was it he said about your outfit... Frumpy tracksuit?" Guess the filmmakers loved that line so much they had to double-dip!)

The storyline seemed interesting but after watching the movie, it was really lame. My two year old could of written a better movie. Such a waste of an hour and a half.

College freshman Jenny is learning that effort in the classroom and speed on the track may not be enough to succeed in school. Meanwhile a spate of mysterious happenings seemingly attributable to a creepy professor may not be just a rumor.

May very well be the worst acting I have ever, ever seen. Absolutely ridiculous to the point of laughter. The college professor is so bad that he's almost creepy in REAL LIFE. I feel bad for the young women and men who go through harassment in real life. This could've been a well-done movie and vehicle to out these smarmy abusive professors. Instead it's a mellowdramatic laugh. Horrible movie, watch only if you've already done funner things like inserting toothpicks under your fingernails or swallowing a bucket of rusty steel-wool.

Just another lifetime movie to waste 90 minutes away while doing laundry...at least thats what I did anyways. The helicopter mom, Kristin really got on my nerves a bit with her mouth. Really ugly woman with buck teeth. Them blubber lips in the beginning of the movie while eating dinner "to our brave and beautiful Jenntha"really irks me. She is a horrible actress which is probably why I have never heard of her and hopefully won't see her in another movie in my lifetime.

If this girl had a scholarship it would've been as water girl. Not close to being a long distance runner body. Certainly not even close to being a sprinter period. Why is it every kid in these movies can't throw a ball. Dribble a ball. Kick a ball. Hit a ball, or run a straight line?? It's embarrassing to watch. It's turn your head TV. Are these child actors so kept away from sports in their lives just to become bad actors?? The acting is worse in this movie than the typically other bad LMN movies. The plot was a huge YAWN. The outcome was predictable after 10 min. The mom is absolutely hard to watch let alone like in any way.
