It’s time to relive one of the OG slashers that helped define a generation of slashers!
This week’s Shudder Sundays dives into Prom Night (1980)! Starring scream queen Jamie Lee Curtis, this cult classic serves up disco and deadly revenge as a masked killer stalks a group of teens during their high school prom. With its slow-burn tension, iconic dance scenes, and a chilling whodunit mystery at its core, Prom Night blends '80s glam with slasher grit in all the right ways.
We’ll break down the kills, the killer, and how this early entry in the slasher boom still holds up today. So grab your corsage and get ready to dance… to death.
