Fear Street: Prom Queen

Fear Street: Prom Queen
Welcome back to Shadyside. In this next installment of the blood-soaked Fear Street franchise, prom season at Shadyside High is underway and the school's wolfpack of It Girls is busy with its usual sweet and vicious campaigns for the crown. But when a gutsy outsider is unexpectedly nominated to the court, and the other girls start mysteriously disappearing, the class of '88 is suddenly in for one hell of a prom night.

The Fear Street Netflix trilogy had some fun moments, but the prom queen angle in particular just didn’t land for me. It felt like a weak mash-up of classic horror tropes without the originality or tension that made movies like Scream or Carrie memorable. The characters were thin, the pacing dragged, and the “prom queen in danger” setup was too predictable to be scary. While the first film in the trilogy had some energy, this part felt like filler.
Not great Netflix! I hope at least it was cheap to make. Feel rushed anyway.
