Hello Mary Lou: Prom Night II
“You Can't Keep a Bad Girl Down!”
Certified Crap. CrapScore 63, rated by 1 admin.
Higher CrapScores mean more entertainingly bad. How we score movies.
A dead prom queen returns through another student's body and resumes her unfinished business. This largely standalone sequel trades straightforward slasher plotting for possession, surreal shocks and cynical humour. Wendy Lyon gives the transformation more personality than the franchise label might suggest.
