***More kinetic and imaginative than the dramatic original*** A hedonistic prom queen is accidentally killed on stage in 1957. When her spirit is inadvertently released thirty years later, she wreaks havoc on prom night seeking to be queen again, not to mention obtaining revenge. Michael Ironside plays the principal of the school, the man responsible for the girl’s death decades earlier. Sometimes subtitled “Hello Mary Lou,” “Prom Night II” (1987) is disconnected from the original 1980 film with Jamie Lee Curtis, although there are some trivial links. This one discards the disco dancing while upping the ante with the “Carrie” (1976) elements and mixing in components from the first two “A Nightmare on Elm Street” flicks (1984/1985), like the illusions and possession. The original was more of a coming-of-age drama/whodunit with a masked assailant appearing in the last act whereas this sequel is actually a little better in that it adds creative horror pizazz, which some might say makes it “cheesy.” In any case, Wendy Lyon stands out as the winsome protagonist who’s shown totally nude on a few occasions in the second half which ties-in with the possession angle. If you favor any of those other horror films noted above, “Prom Night II” is arguably on par, although I suppose “Carrie” is superior on a technical level. The movie runs 1 hour, 37 minutes and was shot in Edmonton, Alberta, with other stuff (post-production) done in Toronto. GRADE: B
