Sorority Girl (1957)


A poor-little-rich-girl feels alienated by her mother and enacts a string of revenges on her fellow pupils at a girls' boarding school. However, she is outcast when one of her stunts nearly drives a girl to suicide.

Dark, but heavy-handed tale of teenage malice; Susan Cabot, however, is quite convincing as the disturbed and ill-willed sorority girl.

Halliwell (no star): "Corman's campus exploitation movie is positively middle-aged in its stodgy approach, with a cast that looks far too old and a script mouldering with aged cliches."

Maltin*1/2: "Lumbering tale of angst and alienation, 1950s-style."
