The movie won't even satisfy viewers looking for cheap thrills and buckets of blood.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Feb 22, 2023

While it fails to break new ground, it does shape itself up to be a prime example of horror films that may be due, especially in this new wave age of horror, for another induction.

About the only positive thing I can say about Prom Night is that it does manage to have a few unintentionally humorous moments.

| Original Score: F | Oct 29, 2019

The writing, the acting, the whole thing is done with as little imagination as possible - right down to the fake-out scares and nearly superhuman villain who defies logic at every turn.

| Original Score: 0/4 | Jun 5, 2019

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.

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

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Jan 24, 2009

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.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Oct 18, 2008

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.

Full Review | Original Score: 1/4 | Oct 18, 2008

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.

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

| Original Score: 1/4 | Jun 8, 2008

Annoyingly, it's a rich premise that offers all sorts of possibilities...yet McCormick doesn't appear to be bothered.

| Jun 6, 2008

Well-dressed, sure, with a few kicks for green teens, but hardly a wild night.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jun 6, 2008

A caffeine-free horror that's just as dull, disappointing and dispiriting as attending a real high school prom.

| Original Score: 1.5/5 | Jun 6, 2008

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

| Original Score: 1/6 | Jun 5, 2008

Corny, monotonous and very far from scary

| Original Score: 1/5 | Jun 5, 2008
