The Initiation Of Sarah (1978)

A shy socially awkward young girl (Kay Lenz) goes off to college with her popular and outgoing sister (Morgan Brittany). While her sister is invited to join a prestigious sorority, the snobby president (Morgan Fairchild) blackballs the misfit sister. So she joins a mysterious sorority with a house mother (Shelley Winters) who has some demonic secrets. Directed by Hammer horror alumnus Robert Day (THE HAUNTED STRANGLER), this made for television ripoff of CARRIE (1976) is actually quite entertaining for the most part. But it's toothless compared to the Brian De Palma horror classic. But with an over the top Shelley Winters as a batshit crazy house mother and Morgan Fairchild as a spoiled rich bitch, there's many a guilty pleasure to hold one's interest. Remade in 2006 with Fairchild playing the mother (played here by Kathryn Grant, 7TH VOYAGE OF SINBAD) of the two sisters. With Tony Bill, Robert Hays and Tisa Farrow.
