Rush for Your Life (2022)

Tasha goes undercover at college, pledges a sorority, and joins the college newspaper to expose what happened the prior year when a pledge named Sophie died.  Clancy, the editor of the paper, was Sophie’s roommate. She was also a pledge but dropped out after Sophie’s death. She hates the sorority and would love to publish an expose on them.

Why is it when people go undercover to look into a crime, they are super obvious?  Tasha has no sense of subtlety. She asks way too many questions about Sophie and has her phone out recording secret ceremonies. 

She meets frat boy Anthony and they become friendly.  While trying to find info on Sophies death, they break into oher students rooms. But then they sit there and have an heart to heart where Tasha reveals guilt from her past. There is no heartfelt conversation you should have when breaking and entering. Wait until you’re no longer committing a crime.

To get into the sorority, you download an app where you will be assigned tasks. These brainiacs put their hazing in writing.  Tasha is assigned tasks that get more and more dangerous, which ends with her on the same roof Sophie fell, jumped or was pushed off.  Silly Sophie, don’t you know you should never join a sorority, especially when you’re investigating a death and they’ve realized you’re a mole?


Social media for the person on the phone
Live streaming your illegal activities during hazing
How did the sisters not notice she was recording?
Breaking into a dorm is a great time for a heart to heart.
Obviously recording on her phone during the secret initiation
It’s not much of a threat if it’s been printed in the paper
