  • Summary

  • The Blind Rage Podcast carries on A September of School Scares with PLEDGE NIGHT, a late ‘80s oddity exposing the real life horrors of fraternity hazing. Well, sort of.


    While penning the script, Joyce Snyder visited fraternities to investigate what members of the university elite were forced to endure before being offered the golden ticket. Many of these rituals were incorporated into the story, along with a bizarre subplot centered around a prank gone horribly wrong.


    Killed in 1969, Acid Sid returns to the scene of the crime to wreak bloody vengeance, even though no one currently occupying the house had anything to do with his death. Spewing corny one-liners, most of them phrases found on bumper stickers in the 1960s, he dispatches victims by lighting a cherry bomb forced into a brother’s anus, strangling another with his own intestines, and wielding…an eggbeater.


    It's bad on multiple levels, yet somehow watchable. Perhaps the many homoerotic overtones had something to do with it…
