Prom Night
One of the most infamous slasher movies of the whole genre. This movie didn't start the slasher trend, but it really gave it a jump start. The story is about a group of children who are involved in an accident that killed another child. They cover it up and make apack to keep it a secret. years later, some starts offing anyone who was involved. I have to admit, that when the killer was revealed, I was surprised, and that isn't an easy thing to do. This was a good movie over all, and worthy of a 4 out of 5.
