Well, past experience has taught me not to go into modern day gore films with high expectations; but this tale of sorority girls and cannibalism really hits the spot, and is by far and away one of the best modern examples of this sort of trash that I've seen! One reason why these modern efforts often fail is because they simply can't capture that great fetid atmosphere that classic directors such as Jess Franco and Joe D'Amato did so effortlessly. This one doesn't succeed in capturing that feel either; but the direct to video low budget style is an adequate replacement, and the music used, as well as the beautiful naked women that frequent the movie more than make up for it. The plot focuses on the Delta Delta Pi sorority house. It comes under scrutiny from a certain student after he notices that several men have entered the house and not come back out. There's a reason for this as well; as the beautiful girls of the house are in business, producing pies; and the meat that goes in the pies is the same meat on the bones of the men they invite into the house!
I do have to say that despite my high rating and enthusiasm for this film; it really isn't good. The technical elements of the movie are a joke, with the actors seeming like they were picked up off the street based on their looks and the plot being pure hokum - but it's great FUN, and that's what makes it good. As you might expect, the movie has a fair amount of porn in it; but unfortunately it's only really soft, and despite some scenes that see people being tortured naked etc, there's not any actual sex in the movie. It doesn't really matter, however, as director Devin Hamilton is able to keep things moving through a constant stream of hilarious and irreverent occurrences. A film like this really needs a sense of humour, and Delta Delta Die certainly has one as hardly anything is taken seriously, and the way that the sorority girls talk about their macabre business usually provides some amusement. Overall, it's clear that this film will do nothing for people who like their films to be high on artistic value; but as direct to video modern trash flicks go, this is a very good one and comes highly recommended!
