Die Die Delta Pi Whodunit?
This week I had the chance to watch the independent horror film Die Die Delta Pi directed by Sean Donahue and Christopher Leto, which has not yet been released.
Once upon a time, in what is generally the most deserted college I have ever seen a sorority prank ends in death! Set in the 80s for the first 20-30 minutes, the story revolves around a sorority prank gone wrong. A bunch of girls are sitting around a fire and one of them sprays silly string on another. That damn silly string is flammable and the girl it was sprayed on catches fire!
Someone goes on a killing spree later that night and kills all the kids at the sorority. Who could the murderer be? I don’t do spoilers, so I won’t tell you but it is pretty easy to figure out. Fast forward 30 years and there are a new group of kids being slaughtered and the murders are connected to those from the 80s.
As a low budget horror comedy, this is a silly movie. To the guys out there, there are plenty of bare boobies for you to drool over. In the first ten minutes of the movie, there is a female who has a conversation with two others while totally nude. Yes! You can see her vagina! There is also plenty of stupid humor to go around as well. I laughed my ass off at one of the guys being called pencil dick. I never said I was a mature 41 year old!
Although this was a low budget film and some of kills were pretty unrealistic, I admired their originality. A teacher was strangled with a zip tie. A sorority sister had her face placed against a grill and when she was pulled back her face was glowing from the inside out. In my personal favorite, the killer, who is holding a knife, grabs a student, holds him down and forces a bunch of pills down his throat. The student immediately foams at the mouth and dies. Huh? This was fun little 80s throwback slasher. Oh, and the killer looks like Alice Cooper!
