Okay this was a tv movie but it still counts because it has so many great kids from the 80s that we all loved. This movie centers around the night of several different teens on their senior prom night. Almost every popular 80s kid stars were in this one. Let see, Alyssa Milano, Tracey Gold, Tempestt Bledsoe, Christina Applegate, Matthew Perry, Chris Young, and Brian Bloom. It also had a lot of adult stars that were popular Kelsey Grammer, Edie McClurg, Cliff DeYoung, Mary Francis, and Alan Thicke.
It is a heartwarming story that shows a girl that is not so popular that gets to become prom queen. And an extremely popular girl getting dissed at prom time. Anyway the cast alone is reason enough to see this one. It is available on DVD and a definate must see for all of the 80s comedy teen fans!
My favorite scene is when Kelsey Grammer is crawling around on his knees with Edie McClurg in a restaurant so that their daughter played by Gold won't see them because he forgot his wallet and couldn't pay for his dinner. Also Christina Applegate plays a really stuck up girl that gets her in the end also.

hey jess, i forgot to reply to this topic. as i told you before, i liked this movie a lot. it had a great cast and although it was a bit cheesy, it's a perfect 80s movie. my favorite scenes are the ones with alyssa milano and chris young and even though brian bloom played the popular jerk, he has killer eyes. it's been a while since i've seen it, so i gotta find time to watch it again.
i think most of the girls from this site would love it, if they haven't already seen it.

Submissions and trivia are about six months behind at the moment due to real life pressures, but soon there'll be a big splurge to get them done... Posts: 1026 | From: The '80s | Registered: Feb 2000 | Site Updates: 407

I'm a nut that loves this movie too. I have it taped off TV. I believe it's on DVD though. It's just one of those cool funny TV movies that had all the TV stars of the moment. Geeze I love Alyssa Milano...lol! Applegate as the biAtch...was great too. I just remember all the girls had the half hair pull back with bows...didn't they? Those bows on a barette us girls used to love in the 80's....ekkk.
So of course I just checked the IMDB page.....I used to have the biggest crush on Chris Young...woooo. I loved him in The Great Outdoors! Check this he has his own website now! Cute pics of him and his kids on there.....ahhhhh!

I mentioned "Dance 'Til Dawn" in the "Who's The Boss" thread.. I hadn't seen it in years, so I went out and found it a awhile back.
It was definitely too cute at times, but overall it was quite a fun movie. Alyssa Milano and Chris Young were awesome in this movie..
If you were a fan of shows such as "Who's The Boss" and "Growing Pain".. I recommend this flick. It has a charm about it that makes you not mind some of the cheesy moments...

OMG Logan...even though I got the chills...not my favorite Grease song man....I'd rather burn!!...I go with Grease 2! "Cooooool Rider....I need a coooool rider....if he's cool enough he can burn me through and through"

I like Grease 2... but Maxwell Cauldfield can't sing. He just can't. Pfeiffer wasn't too bad.

It's just the earth shifting on it's tectonic plates, that's all. Swamp gas. Sunlight reflecting off a piece of glass... echoes from a nearby freeway... a prank involving wires... dirt on the lens... static discharge... a man in a suit! THERE IS NO ALIEN CONSPIRACY!!!
*SOB!*
I can't explain it... there is no explanation. We're all doomed.

I can't really remember what happened there...
I guess I managed to get and watch it and just got on with it..?
