I Thought this would be a great slsaher Movie but it wasnt it was chessy and not a good horror film but still OK but Scream Queen Jamie Lee Curties saved the movie =]
a good movie i assure you, but are you seriously telling me this is a horror/slasher film?
it looks more like a murder mystery movie, it wasn't scary and it had a similar storyline to "I Know What You Did Last Summer" and "House on Sorority Row", but it was a little bit suspensful with the killer chasing his victims.
still, not deserving for the name of "horror", but certainly thrilling if you ask me.

a great slasher with a lot of build up, disco music, and pretty good kills.
A classic slasher film, the kind we don't see anymore because today's generation is so fanatical over over-the-top gore, annoying teen stars, remakes, lack of storyline, Rob Zombie garbage, etc. It's like today's audiences are not happy with a horror movie unless there is splatter in the opening scene - movies like "Prom Night" took the time to build up the story and characters before the mayhem.
As for the idiot that posted, "AND I KNOW SLASHERS," obviously you DON'T, because this ranks in the Top Ten Slasher Classics.
I thought this film was done exceptionally with it's budget limitations.
Even though it's one of those pictures that really doesn't stand the test of time, it's influential mark on other movies has cemented itself in time as a horror classic.
Wasn't bad. When they revealed who the killer was at the end I was surprised even though it was typical, if you know what I mean. Also, the beginning part of the movie was kind of far-fetched. I've never met a single kid in my life that was as malicious as these kids in the movie were. But like I said, not a bad movie.
Pretty corny movie. The end is the only fun part. Don't bother with this one, or the remake. The remake makes this one look good. Don't see either of them, they both suck, but the remake sucks harder.

I'm shocked by the scores this movie has received. This movie is terribly overrated. Very boring and dumb. Don't waste your time with it.
One of the best horror movies that Jamie Lee Curtis did besides the Halloween movies

Horrible movie.I dont know y lesli nelson and jamie lee curtas played in this movie.The only good thing about the movie was that its very funny and easy to make fun of.
I didnt really like it that much. Pretty boring. I did like the scene were the killer and the boyfriend are fighting on the disco floor with disco music playing. Haha classic.
a slightly above average slasher from the 80s that likes to play a who's doing the killing in the film and when that revelation is revealed it was surprising at least for me it was.
A classic horror movie! It's got a crank calling psycho killer looking for revenge, disco dancing and Leslie Nielsen. When you think about it, what else do you really need? Okay, maybe bowl of popcorn.

Prom Night was OK. Nothing too special, but OK. You'll get through it once but you won't need to watch it again for a long time.
This is such a hard movie to review. On one hand you have JLC who is always and forever shall be the scream queeen doing a bang up job as usual and yet the rest of the cast are cardboard cutouts! But, overall what a fun flick. I saw this when I was 14 and back then it was a little hokey for me but after buying it in a bargin bin for a mere 3.99, you can't go wrong with a good genre flick and a really good kill that has unibrow losing his head! Overall 5/10
Very good slasher. A little slow to start, and some of the acting isn't great, but it was better than 90% of the other slashers of the era (I love them, but they're not good.)
Well... once again a classice Jamie Lee Curtis Horror film... this Movie shines as a classic 70's-80's style slasher flick... def a must see and have for horror fans... HALLOWEEN meets I KNOW WHAT YOU DID LAST SUMMER!
