It's 1987 and the totally tubular sorority sisters of Delta Pi Sigma are looking for new blood. When "brainiac" Tonya, "Madonnawannabe" Deb and "working girl" Janet enter the rush party of their "own free will," they soon discover that the sisters are "like, totally vampires" under the command of the eternally youthful house mother, Mrs. B. And when Mrs. B lays eyes on Janet she becomes convinced that Janet is the reincarnation of her long-lost companion.

As Deb goes missing and Janet falls under Mrs. B's spell, it's up to Tonya and southern belle Sissy (with some help from a totally bodacious vampire boy) to destroy the nest of vampires and rescue Janet.

Pop-culture references, musical montages, aerobics dance numbers and even a letterbox that flies onto the stage to create cinematic compositions.
