Julianna Guill is a spoiled teenager, Madison, self absorbed(me, me, me) and materialistic, who is planning one of those Sweet 16 birthday bashes, the kind where everyone will be there and an exorbitant amount of cash will be wasted so that daddy's lil girl can have her dream party. Lauren McKnight is Skye, the mistreated teenage girl who doesn't have the finest things like her peers. What boils Madison's kettle is that her ex-boyfriend, Brigg(Chris Zylka), is interested in Skye. Skye being the exact opposite of Madison doesn't go over well with all the rich kids, but Brigg seriously has feelings for her despite what others might think. So those who are mean to Madison suffer the consequences for their actions when a psycho in a cloak and mask starts hunting them down one by one mostly in the backstage of the party. Guill imbues her bitch with perfect clarity, those who aren't in her position will more than probably loathe her throughout and desire for her end to be particularly gruesome. MY SUPER PSYCHO SWEET 16 is in the same league as the recent PROM NIGHT remake. It has solid production values. The cast is pretty. The violence is tame. The sound effects and some blood spray tell us what we know about how gruesome the death sequences are. The deaths themselves are somewhat brutal even if off screen such as the use of a fire extinguisher to bash a face in and the beheading of a girl as she attempts to skate to safety, interrupting Madison's cake presentation. There's also a nightmare sequence where a hospital patient is stabbed multiple times in the chest. But, to be honest, MY SUPER PSYCHO SWEET 16 is simply no different than others of it's ilk. The killer is standard issue. The plot, funny as it may be for those who positively hate these kinds of Park Avenue girls, quietly fantasizing about their demises in the cruelest ways possible, follows the basic slasher guidelines. As I mentioned above, MY SUPER PSYCHO SWEET 16 belongs in a double feature with the remake of PROM NIGHT. Madison is so repellent due to her personality that, even when Skye tries to free her so that she could be saved from the psychopath, this girl still insults and ridicules her rival. Matt Angel is Skye's nerdy pal, Derek, also a victim of bullying. Joey Nappo is your typical jock cretin who enjoys picking on Derek.
