Prom Night: The Lame-Looking Weekend Box Office Champion

It’s been a while since a hopelessly opportunistic lowest common denominator horror movie reached the top of the weekend box office, but Prom Night has sorted all that out.

As far as we’re able to tell, Prom Night is a scary movie about a bunch of insufferable teens who get all dressed up for a posh party, only for an escaped lunatic to chop them all into pieces in graphic disgusting detail one by one.

So congratulations to Prom Night for getting to the top of the US weekend box office, although we can’t help thinking that the movie would have been even more successful if it had listened to our idea and called itself The My Super Sweet 16 Wish-Fulfilment Movie.
