Most recently watched by zombiefreak, jenerator, sleestakk

Overview

In order to become a member of a fraternity, the applicants have to go through initiation rituals to show their loyalty. Way back in the 1960s, someone played a nasty trick on the student Sidney Scheider: He had to take a bath in a tub filled with cornflakes and coffee grounds, vinegar and even more disgusting substances. Nothing unusual so far but someone had replaced the water with pure acid. Sidney was seriously wounded and died a horrible death. This year Acid Sid returns with a vengeance, killing everyone who comes his way. One by one is slaughtered and in the college hell breaks loose.

Viewing Notes

Movie 7 of BTSNAT was a pick from Damon (@zombiefreak). He actually wanted to show SLASH DANCE but we ran into some technical difficulties. Instead he chose PLEDGE NIGHT a movie about a bunch of frat guys torturing their pledges until a dead pledge comes back from the grave to wreck revenge on everyone for throwing him in an acid bath during Pledge Night. A young Joey Belladonna, from Anthrax plays the kid thrown into the bath, which also means this movie ends up having the most awesome soundtrack.

Lots of over the top gore and hilarious pledge moments including one where they have to \\“get rid of\\” a nasty shake and one guy suggests putting it up their asses, like that\\‘s a logical choice. Once the deaths get rolling the gore is pretty cool and it\\‘s a total 80s style horror movie. Until then it\\‘s a cruel college movie. Either way, it was a blast.
