This review is from: Prom Night 2 - Hello Mary Lou (DVD)

Prom Night 2 - Hello Mary Lou is about a girl named Mary Lou who was killed at her prom on stage accepting the prom queen award sometime during the 1950's. And then the movie takes place 30 years later and the spirit of Mary Lou has come back from the dead to get revenge, wreak havoc and accept her award as prom queen. She possesses a girl to do so and nothing is going to stop her from getting what she wants.

BORE:
When I was a kid I came home one day and my brother had this movie playing, and I saw a seen that scared me back then, but stuck in my mind all these years. And now finally I have tracked down what that movie was and being a horror buff I must say I this is a pretty decent flick that rekindled me with that scene in my head and i also wasn't disappointed with the rest of the film around it.

Tho it didn't scare me at all this time (nothing does anymore) I still think it's a great horror movie. What's interesting about it is it pays tribute to many of the great horror movies made before it. The most noticeable is the prom at the beginning of the movie that resembles the prom from the movie Carrie. It's not a rip-off; it's a tribute to many, many horror movies.


SUMMARY:
This movie has some great scenes... especially in the locker room *squish*. I love the homage stuff, I like the catch phrases and I think this is certainly a terrific horror movie. The ending could have been better, but overall I'm glad I own this one. It's a shame there is no bonus features at all. I'd love to have heard an audio commentary.

NOTE: this film is not entirely a sequel to Prom Night 1. This movie uses the title as part 2, but it's kind of the same thing that was done for Halloween 3... only this movie doesn't suck!!! So keep in mind it's not a continuation of the first movie, but IMO this is the best Prom Night of them all!

This review is from: Prom Night 2 - Hello Mary Lou (DVD)

All the prom nights are classics, I really love this one that revolves around Mary Lou Maloney, this is horror at it's best. Mary Lou is killed in a fire and her life is cut short so she comes back... and possesses an innocent girl to take revenge on the ones she feels is responsibile for her death.

This review is from: Prom Night 2 - Hello Mary Lou (DVD)

This movie is not really that much of a sequel to Prom Night which starred Jamie Lee Curtis of Halloween fame. This is sort of a different movie and explains more about what happened in Highland High's past. In 1957 Mary Lou Maloney was crowned homecoming Queen but due to jealousy and anger, her just dumped boyfriend, played by Michael Ironside, threw a smoke bomb on the stage. Unfortunately, it caught Mary Lou's dress on fire and she died tragically burning up so fast no one could even approach her to try to put the flames out and save her. The school has been haunted ever since and when a troubled teenage girl searches for a new dress in the school's basement, she accidentally unlocks a trunk where Mary Lou's ghost can cross over and come into this world. Havoc is wreaked, but the story becomes totally unbelievable, if it ever was, about near the end of the movie where it becomes a rip off of Stephen King's Carrie movie. Good acting though and it's got the usual teenage angst and gore. I like the movie for it's 1950's glimpses at life like those awful school gym uniforms, the one piece blue uniforms that women who are a little older used to have to wear to P.E.! Yikes!
