Content wise, this film’s title perfectly sums up this film about sadistic college students driven by excess and the consequences that arise due to their poor choices. From a Horror film fans perspective all the staples of the genre our on display and exploited for all their worth in this film. Even some irreverent humor is through into the mix for good measure.
 
Without a doubt this film’s most enduring asset are the characters which populate this film. None of them are likable and few if any are rooted in reality, thus making their ultimate demise all Delta Lota Epsilon fraternity the more enjoyable. Another high point of this film are the scenes in which the members of the Delta Lota Epsilon fraternity torture and murder perspective pledges. And with each new group of pledges, the somehow top the brutality of their last initiation.
 
Outside of a few minor roles, the majority of the cast are actually very good in their respective roles, especially  Rane Jameson in the role of Bobby a young man, who recently has just come out of a coma and discovered that his brother Sean has gone missing. And Niki Rubin in the role of Diana, a promiscuous young woman who is dating one of the members of  the Delta Lota Epsilon fraternity.

The groovy Disco themed score for Frat House Massacre was composed by Claudio Simonetti, who most cult movie fans are sure to recognize from his extensive work with Dario Argento, either with the band Goblin (Deep Red) or as a solo artist (Opera).
 
Ultimately, while the Retro vibe makes the story at hand all the more engaging. It is the film’s nearly two hour length that ends up being its greatest enemy. The pacing is erratic, there are for too many  long drawn out sequences that just go on well beyond their shelf life.
