The premise

Donna's senior prom is supposed to be the best night of her life, though a sadistic killer from her past has different plans for her and her friends.

Horror Vault's take

What should be the most memorable night of Donna's life — her senior prom — quickly turns into a nightmare when a dangerous figure from her troubled past resurfaces with deadly intentions. As the glittering celebration unfolds, Donna and her friends find themselves hunted in the very venue meant to mark a joyful milestone. This 2008 remake trades gritty exploitation for a glossy, mainstream-friendly thriller that keeps the tension simmering beneath the sequins and slow dances.
