Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - bad movie, but I am fan Holly Marie Combs
bad movie, but i am fan Holly Marie Combs... I don't understand why she do this movie, and and especially those awful scenes...



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Women are from Venus, etc.
Is a young woman expected to have sex when she makes the decision to attend a party at a frat house, whether or not she maintains consciousness? Or, can she expect to be able to pass out anywhere, even among drunk and horny college boys, and remain unmolested? The film approaches this and other date rape situations with an earnest and fairly comprehensive examination of the subject from both male and female perspectives.

The heroine of the story is young Charlotte (Allison Smith), a popular sorority girl, who, against the wishes of her boyfriend, Wesley (Danny Quinn, son of Oscar winner Anthony Quinn), attends a frat party alone, where she is raped by Wesley's best friend, Jim (Jay Underwood). As Jim brags of his 'conquest', Charlotte goes through a period of self-loathing and denial, until Jim's version destroys ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Accurate Though Exhaggerated View of College Students
This gives an accurate vision of what's on the minds of college students today. Definitely negative slant regarding the men in the film. Overall, worth seeing.
