Hello Mary Lou: Prom Night II

You can’t keep a bad girl down! Hello Mary Lou: Prom Night II is the next film up in our Art House of Horrors: Presented by Mubi series! A rip-roaring sequel-in-name-only to the Jamie Lee Curtis slasher from 1980, this film delivers the goods in both the kills and teenage angst departments. Here, a ‘50s prom queen is sautéed alive in a school fire, and her horny, vengeful ghost pops up in the ‘80s to slice-’n-dice the Breakfast Club. Featuring the iconic Michael Ironside as a high school principal and death via Apple II computers, this underrated slasher is a perfectly paced melding of Carrie, A Nigthmare on Elm Street, and Sam Raimi!
