An attractive cast of young performers lead by Brittany Snow (Hairspray) is the main selling point for Prom Night, a remake of the 1980 Canadian slasher film starring Jamie Lee Curtis. Snow makes for a capable lead as the sole survivor of her family's massacre at the hands of an obsessed teacher (Jonathan Schaech), who returns three years later to finish his campaign on the eve of her senior prom. While no one's idea of a classic horror film, the Paul Lynch-directed Prom Night offered viewers a modest whodunit angle in between the killings; here, the villain's identity is known from the get-go, and what's left is a string of mechanical stalkings (which feature a surprisingly modest amount of blood) and reams of turgid teenspeak, which is handled as best as possible by Snow and her cast mates. The end result is a dull, suspense-free chiller that manages to make its mediocre source material seem inspired by comparison. Older moviegoers may note the presence of actors Idris Elba and James Ransone, both used so well on The Wire, and so thoroughly wasted here. --Paul Gaita

- Not A Bad Movie. Its worth Your time. Good to add to your Collection
I would buy a used Dvd copy of this movie from like BlockBuster 3 for $20 sale. But get the unrated version. Not as bad as people are saying.

Rating:

- There's nothing to see here
Whoever did the poster art for this movie should get an award. It is far and away the best part of this movie. The lead actress and the detective were pretty good in their roles, but the movie has zero tension and the bad guy is particularly unscary.

Rating:

- Prom Night - Poor
I can sum this movie quickly: poor acting, poor plot, and faults in the plot.

- Maybe It's a Night to Remember, But This Is a Movie I'd Like To Forget...
28 years ago a fairly successful horror movie was released starring the then-reigning scream queen, Jamie Lee Curtis ("Halloween"), and dealt with teenagers being murdered on what should be one of the happiest nights of their lives, Prom Night. Fast-forward to 2008, and director Nelson McCormick (TV's "Prison Break") and writer J.S. Cardone ("The Covenant") have attempted to serve up another dose of mayhem and murder surrounding that festive evening with a loosely-inspired remake of the 1980 slasher film of the same name, the appropriately titled "Prom Night".

"Prom Night" is the story, as you may have guessed by the title, of a group of teenage friends attending their high school prom, except what should be a night of fond memories, will end up becoming a night of horrifying nightmares for those that survive. Three years ago, Donna (Brittany Snow), a popular girl in the school, lost her entire family ... Read More
