This really wasn't a remake of the original movie since the story lines and the killers were pretty different. Prom Night and killing and slashing was the only thing they had in common. Anyway, it was the usual kind of slasher film but at least in this one there was a motive and a mission to the killing. I don't know why they didn't go for an R Rating and really pump this movie up, I know they probably wanted more high school kids to go and see it, but I think it could have been a lot bloodier (even though I don't like a lot of gore, I just thought the killings were too clean). I thought the acting was pretty good, Brittany Snow did a great job. I probably won't add this to my dvd collection but I didn't think it was a bad movie...
