In 1992’s Fraternity Demon, Isha (Trixxie Bowie) is a succubus who is summoned into the real world by a nerdy frat boy who is doing something with a personal computer.  To be honest, I’m not totally sure what nerdy Dave (Al Darrouch) did to summon the succubus but she shows up in the real world and proceeds to have softcore sex with some 30 year-old frat boys in her quest to find Dave.

To be honest, I should have stopped this film as soon as I saw the New York skyline and “Troma Presents” at the start of it.  I’ve seen enough Troma films that I knew exactly what I was getting myself into but I kept watching the film just in case it turned out to be some sort of lost masterpiece.  Unfortunately, the film turned out to just be another boring Troma softcore film, featuring bad acting, bad humor, and terrible sound quality.  I honestly cannot begin to put into words just how wooden most of the acting was.  This was apparently C.B. Rubin’s only film as a director and watching the film, one can see why.  Fraternity Demon is an 86 minute film that feels like four hours, largely because the director obviously had no idea how to tell a story cinematically.

That said, I stuck with the film because everything that I read about Fraternity Demon said that the film was worth sitting through for the performance of Shock-Ra, the band that plays the fraternity party.  And I will say that I did like Sh0ck-Ra.  They reminded me a bit of X, the Los Angeles punk band that I’ve been obsessed with ever since I watched The Decline of Western Civilization a few months ago.  Speaking of punk, the film features a character who apparently lives on the front steps of the frat house.  He wears a Black Flag t-shirt and he growls at people.  He was probably the best actor in the film, assuming that he was an actor and not just some guy who the director couldn’t convince to leave.

Let’s see, what else was amusing in this film?  The fraternity was named SUX.  The sorority was named ASS.  That was pretty dumb but it made me laugh because, when I get delirious in my boredom, I tend to laugh at dumb things.  Nerdy Dave and his potential girlfriend, Kelly (Deborah Carlin), were kind of a cute couple.  One of the sorority girls comments that she likes a shy guy that she’s seen in at the frat house.  Kelly immediately says, “Dave?” because, of course, frat houses are only allowed to have one shy guy.

I initially assumed that Trixxie Bowie was an adult actress slumming in a Troma softcore flick but it turns out that Fraternity Demon was her only film role.  She made her debut as a star and then she never made another film.  Her performance in this film isn’t particularly good but she does manage to get off a few good one-liners.

Is that 500 words yet?  It is?  Good, let’s end this review.

Seriously, no more Troma films for me….
