Some kids accidently kill a girl when playing "Killers Are Coming" (which is basically hide and seek with a twist) in an abandoned building - the kids decide to run away rather than get in trouble (they're ten, I doubt they'd get too much punishment for an accident). Six years later it's their prom night and soon they start getting knocked-off by a masked killer who's out for some good old fashioned revenge.

This is certainly one boring slasher movie and that might be because there's no deaths until an hour in and it's lacking what every good slasher movie needs - that is murder scenes and nudity. It doesn't work because of poorly defined characters, a script that tries to throw-out a bunch of red herrings early on and it even gives Jamie Lee Curtis a disco dancing scene to help pad the movie.

Throw in the fact that the "stalking" scenes are tiring and there's an abundance of shots that are so dark we can't see what's happening (a fault that director Paul Lynch's 1981 horror loser, Humongous, also suffered from) and you have this really crappy effort.

Followed by Hello Mary Lou: Prom Night II and two other sequels.

Directed By: Paul Lynch.
