Plot: College student Sara finds her safety jeopardized after she's assigned to a dorm room with a new roommate, Rebecca.
Taglines:
2,000 colleges. 8 million roommates. Which one will you get?
Trivia:
The film was shot on location at Loyola Marymount University in Los Angeles. Leighton Meester was originally set to play Sara but was replaced by Minka Kelly, then Meester took the role of Rebecca. Both Cam Gigandet and Alyson Michalka previously starred alongside each other in another Screen Gems film, Easy A. Nina Dobrev confirmed via Twitter that she filmed a scene in the movie, coincidentally not alongside her The Vampire Diaries cast mate and friend, Katerina Graham.
The release was planned for September 17, 2010,but was moved to a theatrical release of February 4, 2011.
Some of the promotional posters and displays for the film used as its backdrop the Christy Administration Bulding from Southwestern College in Winfield, Kansas. The college administration voiced concern that permission to use the photograph of the building was not properly obtained and is currently investigating the legality of its use.Primary concerns hinge that the image of the college--particularly the image of the building--could be damaged. Other concerns are that the college's primary iconic image is being used for promotion of an unrelated business venture.
