Hello Mary Lou: Prom Night II (1987)

a very cool sequel

[18 April 2002]

starring: Michael Ironside, Wendy Lyon, Lisa Schrage, Justin Louis, and Richard Monette.

plot: In 1957, Mary Lou Maloney (Lisa Schrage) burned to death right before being crowned prom queen. Now, 30 years later Vicki Carpenter (Wendy Lyon) starts seeing strange illusions, where she is Mary Lou. And soon, Mary Lou takes full possession of her body. Her friends, including her boyfriend, Craig (Justin Louis) realize that she is acting different. Bill Nordham (Michael Ironside), who is the one who accidently killed Mary Lou 30 years ago, knows that she is possessed by his old love. Mary Lou starts to kill off Vicki's friends, including the candidates for prom queen, and Vicki's super religous mother, and she continues to kill until she is crowned prom queen!

The sequel to Prom Night has nothing to do with the original. It got ideas from The Exorcist, Carrie, and A Nightmare on Elm Street. It is not meant to be taken seriously, its made for fun. The only way this is connected to the original is that it takes place at the same high school, Hamilton High. If you like The Exorcist, Carrie, A Nightmare on Elm Street, or Prom Night, see this movie!

Once Bitten (1985)

This comedy/horror about a sexy vampire searching for a virgin is fun to watch! This movie is hilarious and well written, and has lots of fun cheesy 80's music.

review: In my opinion, this is the best season of Buffy ever. It's got cool characters, especially the new members of the gang (Oz, Jenny). Their are more monsters then the first season, including an incan mummy, a half man/half snake creature, plus many more. And, the main vampires (Angelus, Spike, Drusilla) are better then in the season before. Also, the horror, romance, drama, and action is all much better then in season one. So if you liked the first season, you will love this one!

review: This is a great show. It has everything: horror, romance, drama, action, comedy, and sci fi! The first season is fun. It has vampires, an evil witch, a giant praying mantis, hyena spirits, demons, boogeymen, and an invisible girl! Definitly watch this show. The first season is the third best in my opinion.

10/10.
