I liked the way in which the teens find ever-more elaborate pretexts to take themselves off, alone, into the darkness to investigate this or that.

There's no need to wear a corsage to Prom Night. And leaving your higher brain functions at home might be a good idea, too.

There's no suspense or perversity. You don't care who lives or who dies -- just please make it soon.

This do-over isn't so much an improvement over the original as lousy in a whole new direction, a nearly bloodless slasher film with fewer surprises than a broken jack-in-the-box.

Thankfully, Prom Night's predictable ending doesn't suggest a remake of the original's 1987 sequel, Hello Mary Lou: Prom Night 2. No kidding, that's what it was called.

By far the worst 'slasher movie' remake to date, replaying all the clichés, but delivering none of the guilty pleasures.

Rates a solid C.

Though a remake in name only, Prom Night nevertheless improves considerably upon its eponymous predecessor...

PROM NIGHT is a must avoid and is the real reason why studios don't screen certain movies for critics.

There's absolutely zippo to fear about this movie, unless you're the kind of person who jumps when formula bogeymen do exactly what you'd expect them to do.

One of the most memorable nights in a teenager's young life is grist for a pretty unmemorable movie in this tame horror entry that follows conventions to the letter.
April 14, 2008
A bland, timid and thoroughly un-thrilling teen thriller.
