Frat House

Only monkeys yelling. They show how much people are or were abused to join a fraternity. Now ofcourse it is another level, poor people have to join the frats because they either do not have friends or do not have any other special quality.

If you have seen "full metal jacket" and how the sargent treats the soldiers, it is the same.

Only the strong survive? Is it worth it? Is the heart enough? What are they trying to prove with all those challenges?

I think it sucked but ok to know how some people's mentality is.

Listen people...I am the real star of this movie. If you want the truth...contact me at joelaudadio@optonline.net. Most of your comments are ridiculous, idiotic, and useless... It seems as if most of you are clueless about this movie, clueless about the efforts it took to make this movie, the reality of the film itself, the dangers of hazing, the sickness about myself and my true to life insanity... so get a grip...and understand this... BLOSSOM IS VERY REAL.... BLOSSOM IS BACK.... BLOSSOM IS ALIVE AND WELL... BEWARE As for the directors of this film...it was an absolute pleasure meeting Todd and Andrew. They are very talented young men, who will make it very big in their lifetime. I owe them quite a bit...for helping me realize the type of person I am, the type of person I want to be...and the type of person I can pretend to be...

this is nothing compared to the real thing-

This is a relatively entertaining documentary. But it is a very weak representation of hazing. It depicts fraternity chapters at a few different colleges on the East Coast. They are all relatively small schools/chapters. One pledge class has about 10 pledges. Although I have heard people refer to this doc as frightening or horrifying (etc etc), this doc only provides a tiny clue of what its like in large fraternal chapters which haze. Multiply the things you saw in this doc by about 100 and you will begin to touch the surface. Hazing is actually much more ritualized and intense. It is not as ridiculous as the events shown here. This is disorganized and small scale.

I just saw this movie, and blow me out! It's a scary, real portrait of fraternities in USA made by two skinny, smart guys with glasses. Although, this is not "The Revenge of the Nerds" whatsoever. It's just a close look to the inside madness in frats. This is a story about noisy parties, people with affectional needs, humiliation, naked women and kegs. At some point it's hilarious, and it's great if you want a college discussion about it. Totally cool, but hard to find (for some reason, not in video).

This movie suffered serious criticism for paying the fraternities and fraternity brothers to act out pieces of the movie. The main school involved does not even pledge in the Spring, as this movie made viewers believe. A good movie to see as long as you realize it is developed to perpetuate the stereotypes the film makers have about fraternities. I did enjoy seeing the movie, it was well produced, and had a good "documentary" feel. HBO will not allow this movie to be presented on TV, and for good reason, it just is not true. There are several instances in the movie where brothers in the fraternity actually act as though they are pledges and act out scenes which supposedly happen in a fraternity.
