djblack, a film (in my book) can already be affirmed as "good" if it respects the intelligence and commands the attention of the audience. "Prom Night" assaulted every sense and piece of logic of the average filmgoer. It had no respect for itself, or for the audience attending. When a film is treated with professionalism and creativity in the casting, writing, and probably most importantly, the directing department, most of the time the result is a respectable one. For instance, Guillermo del Torro, Zach Snyder, and David Fincher are making great films because they are being allowed to make their passion projects with a great deal of creative freedom and professional courtesy. You may not like the films by those film makers, but you have to respect the film maker and their availability to pursue their vision. Movies like "Prom Night" have no vision, no respect, and are not quality pictures. "But it's my opinion"- that may very well be, but if you can't defend and debate it then why have one?
