Featured review
The opening to the film started good with a slow pace building up to the classmate's death, however, after flashing forward six years, the film starts to slow down. Immediately for the majority of the whole hour of the hour and a half film. It's just build-up to the prom there are long scenes with the killer is just calling up all his victims and just threatening trying to scare them.it overstays its welcome it just drags the movie out. Along with Jamie Lee Curtis, none of the other characters are really that interesting or we get to know anything about them throughout the whole movie it's just them talking and goofing around. By the hour mark is where it starts to get interesting because that's when the prom actually happens with the killer pursuing his victims but more generic and cliché with teenagers just making dumb decisions there's a scene with one girl just runs further away for the auditorium where all the students are dancing and just runs to the far end of the school where no one would even know she was here. This entire film they constantly hammer and the possibility of suspects who the killer might be. The ending is disappointing and Lazy. The most recognizable scene in this movie is the dance with the Prom night song playing. This movie could've been cut down to a short film instead of feature-length.
