Retro Horror Flick #1 - Prom Night (1980) - If you're not back by midnight, you won't be coming home...



It is so sad that Hollywood went and remade this 1980 classic. The plot is simple. It's a region around Cleveland, Ohio in 1980, where a masked killer stalks and preys on four teenage girls responsible for the accidental death of a kid six years earlier at their high school's senior prom.

Jamie Lee Curtis, following "Halloween", "The Fog" and "Terror Train" was solidified as a "scream queen". I remember watching this film when it was not even 20 years old...now it's pushing 33 years old. That means it's been over 13 years since I first saw it as a young teen who loved watching 80s-style horror movies.  That old trailer is awesome!

FYI, I love the "high school" girls played by 30 year old actresses. Ahh, the 1980s. This is the first of many movie segments I will be sharing from time to time on this website.
