Prom Night (1980)

Prom Night
1 November 2009
Warning: Spoilers
I mainly decided to try this horror, on Halloween of all days, because Jamie Kennedy sort of recommended it in Scream, I don't know why. Basically Hamilton High School seniors Kelly (Mary Beth Rubens), Jude (Joy Thompson), Wendy (Anne-Marie Martin, or Eddie Benton) and Nick (Casey Stevens) accidentally killed ten-year-old Robin Hammond (Tammy Bourne) six years ago, when he fell out of a window, and have kept quiet about it ever since. Though it was an accident, the four students, well, three, receive phone calls from someone who knows their secret, and he plans revenge on the high school prom night. Starring Leslie Nielsen as Mr. Hammond, Jamie Lee Curtis as Kim, Antoinette Bower as Mrs. Hammond, Michael Tough as Alex, Robert A. Silverman as Sykes and Pita Oliver as Vicki. They say Curtis cemented her title as the Scream Queen with this, as it followed Halloween, but I'm afraid to say, I don't agree that it is that good, it is hardly gory, it only made me jump once, and it just isn't a very entertaining horror film. Adequate, in my opinion!
