Murder University is a new slasher flick, that also deals with the occult.   The story is set at a New England college, which was center of a series of brutal, cult-like murders, approx. 20 years prior.  Just recently, well in 1983, the murders have started up again, and happen to be very similar to the ones that took place several years before.  The main character is a guy named Josh, who was recently targeted, during one of these attacks, but was lucky enough to escape.  After the attack, Josh teams up with a detective and his daughter, to try to figure who is committing these murders, as well as their motive.  

M.U. was a fairly entertaining flick.  Word of warning, this is a B-Movie!  Yes, the acting is subpar and the special effects and dialog abysmal at times, but this one remained, pretty entertaining from beginning to end.   The story line was one that has been done before, but this one added a new twist to it.  Long story short, Josh's father started a club/cult that murder students or anyone that got in their way.  Josh, ends up being a legacy, when the club gets started again 20 years later.  That's it and there it is, you'll have to watch it to see what happens from there.

Bottom Line: Slasher flick pays homage to 80's horror and doesn't do that bad of a job.  The acting and dialog can get cheesey at times, but it ain't enough to make this one a coaster.  A fun slasher flick that takes ya back a few years.

-Ragman can't believe he didn't watch more horror movies, before Halloween.
