Yes, that is the movie's actual title. Hold up though, it gets even more ridiculous; the chief antagonist just so happens to be a demonic imp. Indeed, 1988's comedy horror Sorority Babes in the Slimeball Bowl-O-Rama may just be the quintessential example of a slasher so appallingly bad that it's an absolute hoot.

This laughably sexualized snapshot of the 1980s is a straight up sh*t show, the type you might find in a bin, reduced to 50p in a gas station in the middle of nowhere. The flick's premise sees three nerds forced into stealing a bowling trophy by a group of sorority girls after they catch the boys spying on them. The trophy is duly stolen and dropped, breaking it and releasing the aforementioned imp who promises them each a wish in exchange for freeing him. However, the imp's powers possess the sorority girls and turn them into blood crazed minions; they accordingly try and rip the boys apart.

Sorority Babes in the Slimeball Bowl-O-Rama is a burning trash fire of an affair, but it actually makes for enjoyable, light hearted viewing. Even the most stern-faced cinemagoers in the world will struggle to resist a laugh as the imp's acolytes use one of the nerd's heads as a bowling ball. It won't win any Academy Awards, but once one lets go of absolutely any serious expectations and just embraces the straight-up insanity of the plot's subject matter, this comical attempt makes for a surprisingly watchable 90-minute jaunt.
