Initiation (2020) is a horror film that will make us all glad we didn't attend college in the age of rampant social media. On the night of a homecoming party, sorority sister Kylie (Isabella Gomez) is assaulted by three members of a fraternity who create a fake social media profile to post the video and publicly shame her. Kylie approaches her sorority sisters for help, in particular hoping to get Ellery (Lindsay LaVanchy) involved since her brother Wes (Froy Gutierrez) was one of the individuals involved in Kylie's assault and has previously had allegations of similar behavior lobbied at him. Not long after Ellery agrees to look into it, her brother Wes is found dead by the other frat boys involved in the assault, but rather than expose his deeds, the college decides to honor Wes rather than admit he was a part of the crime. It turns out that the university's chancellor (Lochlyn Munro) has gone out of his way to cover up certain misdeeds and crimes by fraternity members in order to maintain a sense that his school is safe, leading to even bigger problems like the killer on the loose taking revenge against the frat boys involved. This is obviously a film with something to say about assault and the whole notion of college being a boy's club where everyone protects their own, so don't go in expecting any female nudity. The lovely Lindsay LaVanchy does appear in a bra and undies, as well as wearing a bikini to a party, but this Initiation is completely devoid of female flesh!
