I originally watched the first part of this film on an old vhs my dad recored off of sky tv when i was bout 7 or 8 then got so scared i turned it off lol but I can only remember 1 scene from near the beginning of the film where a dark haired teenage girl is in what i think is a high school costume department and she's looking through various things when she finds a crown and tries to pull the jewels out of it when a spirit or ghost strangles her a with a long piece of material or a dress or something????

It puts me in mind of "Carrie" a little bit coz of the crown, i think the crown was meant to be something to do with the high school prom but i could be wrong.

Can anyone help coz its been driving me nuts for years trying to remember it lol

Thanx

could it be HELLO MARY LOU PROM NIGHT 2?

It does sound like Hello Mary Lou Prom Night 2. I think that may be it.

This movie - for me at least- is an unsung gem. I think people were peeved it had very little to do with the original PROM NIGHT (I love THAT movie as well!) but I liked how it had a female as the villain and I liked how it had a sort of NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET vibe.

I have this on VHS. Might have to crack it out and watch it this week!

I've always thought it was a good movie. I have it on DVD and haven't watched it in awhile, either. Might have to drag it out.

Hello Mary Lou: Prom Night II is a great flick!
Like mamamia, i like the original too.

But what about Prom Night III: The Last Kiss (1990)?
I still havenīt seen it and some say that itīs a good horror/comedy.

Parts 3 and 4 did not appeal to me, but out of the two of them Part 3 is the better one. They were sort of going for jokey humor and it didnt work for me. Might be worth a rent for you though.

I think part 3 continues with the Mary Lou theme. I didn't think much of it. I haven't seen part 4.

Part 4 has nothing to do with the original PROM NIGHT or the Mary Lou Mahoney charactor. It was so frickin DULL...something you dont want from your horror movies!
