Okay, so I saw previews for this movie called...dum dum.... PROM NIGHT. Oh please tell me this isn't another wasted remake of a classic?

yes it is...and as you can tell by the commercial...the plot here has ABSOLUTELY nothing to do with the original movies premise. Sigh.

Oh boy another remake. I hate remakes. I'm still ****ed about the remake of Wicker Man. Why do people keep trying to fix things that aren't broken?

the plots are similar indeed, but i'm not sure if it's an official remake of the 1980 version?

I don't think it is a remake. If so it is extremely loosely based. I think it just uses the same title. I think that the film was actually going to be called "A Night to Die For", which would have been good too. But I bet they changed it so that people would be attracted to it because they would think it was a remake. It actually looks pretty good. There is this big display at out movie theater and when you open it up you hear screaming and lights flashing. Pretty cool display actually.

I think it's another case of someone taking an old movie and trying to make it better...which remains to be seen.
