Well, since no one answered your question (though you probably have the answer by now, as it's been about three and a half years since you posted in this thread), I'll try to give you an example, in case you haven't gotten an answer elsewhere.
Let's see, one example of why this is so bad, is that a bunch of "Pretty girls," I guess you'd call them, belong to this uber-elitist sorority. The women who play them don't seem to have to delve very far into their parts, as they seem to be as brainless as their characters. They sound like a bunch of 80's Valley Girls with the way they speak, and the film is basically about these girls hosting a "Greek Week" Pledge Drive. They bring in three girls who very obviously don't "make the cut" in looks, according to the sorority girls, and demand that the pledges "tell [them] a scary story." So, the first pledge tells about a girl who wanted in to a sorority, but was blackballed, and went crazy and killed herself in the pool house. The second (and I did enjoy this story) pledge told a story about a washed up (young, [yawn] still hot actress) who can't get a role to save her life (remember that phrase), so she agrees to take a movie role that is considered the "last act on earth." She goes to Transylvania (I think), and meets the director, and the rest of the crew, and it turns out that they're all "the Undead." They drug her, and tie her up (yawn), and begin filming. She wakes up, chained to a metal gurney, and a big "scary" guy approaches her with a handsaw. I'm guessing that what was supposed to make this scary for the audience is that all of her "actions, and reactions" are "real" and so make the film more special. Because of all of this, she is now part of the Undead crew, herself, and will "live forever."
So, yeah, there's a couple of examples.
Oh, and to everyone using the word, "aquire," I hope you all have been putting it in quotation marks because you know it's spelled wrong. The proper spelling is, "acquire." Sorry, but improper spelling really gets under my skin.
