Prom Night (1980) + Extra [w/Commentary]

This slasher movie follows a relentless killer who is out to avenge the death of a young girl who died after being bullied and teased by four of her classmates. Now high-school students, the guilt-ridden kids have kept their involvement a secret, but when they start being murdered, one by one, it's clear that someone knows the truth. Also coping with the past are members of the dead girl's family, most notably her prom-queen sister, Kim Hammond (Jamie Lee Curtis).

Extra:
– "The Horrors of Hamilton High" (41:04) is the "Prom Night" making-of, gathering select cast and crew members (sadly, no Jamie Lee Curtis) to reflect on the feature. Director Lynch leads the charge here, exploring the creative origins of the project, its casting successes, and marketing achievements. The tone is celebratory, with those appearing quite proud of their participation, and some still have props from the movie, sharing them with the camera (one severed head has not aged well).
