Platicsco Good story, Not enough for a whole film

Tayloriona Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

Myron Clemons A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.

lukandkilt Although dragging at points, this film didn't disappoint me. I found myself caring about the story and engaged with the chase scenes. I'd definitely recommend it to those looking for an enjoyable slasher.

ryan-10075 Six years after a young girl falls from a second floor window during a game called "The Killer is Coming" goes unbelievably wrong deaths begin happening at Hamilton High. Can you figure out who the killer is? Is it the super creepy custodian Sykes? Or the macho hornball with the unibrow Lou? Influenced by better horror films such as John Carpenter's Halloween. Certainly not a brutal horror movie, but does not seem to rise above most of the early 80s slashers. Which is too bad, because it does star Scream Queen Jamie Lee Curtis and Leslie Nielsen. The film seems to stop just so you can watch Curtis do the "Disco Madness" on the dance floor which also horribly dates the film.

BA_Harrison An unintentionally hilarious disco dancing scene featuring scream queen Jamie Lee Curtis is the improbable highlight of this early '80s slasher, which gives some idea of just how disappointing Prom Night is as a horror movie, the film achieving nowhere near the level of carefully crafted scares to be found in Curtis's classic genre outing Halloween, nor delivering the exploitative thrills of its far more gory contemporary Friday the 13th.Just about as formulaic and predictable as the genre gets, Prom Night sees a killer bumping off a group of oversexed teenagers who were responsible for the accidental death of a young girl six years earlier. Who could the murderer be? The weirdo working as a handyman at the high school? The disfigured sex offender originally blamed for the girl's death? The dead girl's father (played by Leslie Nielsen) Or someone else? Seriously, it's not hard to figure out who killer is, so the film doesn't even work as a whodunit. No atmosphere, very little splatter (a decapitation is the only decent death; the rest is too dark to make out), the barest minimum of T&A, a simple to solve mystery, and Jamie Lee grooving it up on the disco floor: hardly the stuff that nightmares are made of.4.5 out of 10, generously rounded up to 5 for IMDb.

TheBlueHairedLawyer In the Sixties, a group of children are playing a game in a decrepit and abandoned convent school when a younger kid attempts to join them (Robyn). The kids begin to bully Robyn, accidentally getting her killed, and they make a pact to keep it a secret. The cops on scene assume it was a pedophile and Robyn's murder is forgotten... but somebody saw the 'accident' and they want to avenge Robyn...Prom Night follows the lives of the group of children now in high school, each preparing for the supposed most romantic night of their lives, unknowing that a killer is lurking. Could it be Mister Sykes, the pervy school janitor? Could it be Luke, the school thug? Or is it someone much closer to home? The soundtrack was written by the man responsible for the soundtrack to the 1981 horror classic 'My Bloody Valentine', Paul Zaza. The acting was great, the plot suspenseful and a funny yet creepy movie, especially to watch with friends. The only scene that seemed to drag a bit was the scene where the popular girl is chased down by the killer, it got a little boring.
