Review: 'Slotherhouse' Is a Bloody Good Time

Review: ‘Slotherhouse’ Is a Bloody Good Time

Cocaine Cougar and Zombeavers move over; there’s a new creature feature on the scene, and it’s a killer. I’m talking about Slotherhouse. In this fun flick, a sorority takes in a sloth as a makot, not knowing that it is a psychopath with a taste for blood. The whole point of the movie, besides entertaining, is poking fun at how truly ridiculous the obsession with social media is, which is hammered home by the constant like counts shown for every character. The whole story is driven by a girl trying to up her likes to become the president of her sorority. To do so, she steals a sloth and makes it the sorority’s mascot. The Characters: Directed by Matthew Goodhue, Slotherhouse stars Lisa Ambalavanar, Sydney Craven, Andrew Horton, Bianca Beckles-Rose, Olive Rouyre, and Tiff Steveson as the house mother. All of the characters are stereotypical of horror movies; you’ve got the girl desperate for likes, the devoted boyfriend, the eco-warrior,
