Prom Night (1980): Prom
April 14, 2019
The most glamorous night of a teenager's life turns into a bloodbath. This film stars Jamie Lee Curtis, one of the great scream queens. A young girl, Robin, is killed when her peers accidentally cause her to fall out a window while bullying her. Instead of telling someone, they all agree to keep it a secret and run away. However, someone saw them, and years later is seeking vengeance. Jamie Lee Curtis plays Kim, Robin's older sister, who is subjected to watching her friends drop like flies around her. This film struggles to hold up, it's a little slow and feels predictable now. But, it really is full of wonderful prom scenes and imagery so it's not a bad film to throw on if you're having a prom-themed movie night. I definitely recommend putting it on your watchlist.
