Fear Street: Prom Queen Ratings & Reviews
- Zokkiie25 maj 2025Tries to be a throwback to the ’80s, blending Carrie with a classic slasher—but it doesn’t work. The plot is weak, the characters are boring, and the killer’s identity is way too predictable. Stylish, but disappointing.
- kayllisti30 oktober 2025I had such high hopes after how amazing the original Fear Street trilogy was. This movie has a bad story, bad writing, and bad acting. I'd say it also had bad directing but it didn't seem like there were any directorial choices made at all. If this movie was made for a high school or college class I'd say "not bad for a first effort, but you have a lot to learn", there is no excuse for this coming from professionals however. And this is coming from someone who enjoys bad horror movies. I actually enjoyed movies like "It's a wonderful Knife" and "Behind The Mask", but I barely made myself finish watching this, and definitely won't watch it again.
- Splitvision8914 juni 2025Lol this movie is just bad. Another 80's slasher written by people who couldn't be bothered to study any kind of real 80's material. Bad acting, worse writting, dumb killer, boring final girl, and terrible music choices.
- jackmeat8 juni 2025My quick rating - 4.8/10. Fear Street: Prom Queen drops us into Shadyside High’s 1988 prom season, where the blood flows almost as freely as the Aqua Net. For underdog Lori (India Fowler), the fight for prom queen quickly turns deadly when someone starts offing the candidates. What follows is a neon-soaked slasher that hits a few nostalgic notes but ultimately misses the mark. The film definitely nails the retro vibe. As someone who actually lived through that era, the music alone took me back to late-80s dance floors and awkward high school drama. If there’s one thing Prom Queen does right, it’s capturing that moment in time—even if everything else feels stuck in neutral. Suzanna Son stands out as Megan, the stoner outcast with a misunderstood soul. She’s easily the highlight here, delivering a layered performance in a movie that often leans too hard into stereotypes. Fowler does a solid job as Lori, our predictable protagonist, but the arc she’s given is exactly what you'd expect from a prom-themed horror flick. The real surprise is Fina Strazza as Tiffany, the queen bee archetype who ends up being more nuanced than expected. She plays the bitchy popular girl with an edge of complexity that hints at what this movie could’ve been if the rest of the characters were given similar depth. The kills are solid—bloody, brutal, and spaced out well enough to keep things from getting boring. Slasher fans will appreciate the gore, even if the murder mystery element is mostly by-the-numbers. The “whodunit” twist isn’t bad, but you’ll likely see it coming a mile away. They make an effort to ramp up the suspense, but it never fully clicks, mostly because everything feels so familiar. Where Prom Queen stumbles hard is in its tone and target audience. It's too violent for the younger crowd and too shallow for seasoned horror fans. The dialogue feels like it was written by someone who hasn’t been near a high school in decades—nobody talks like this. It’s as if the screenwriters built every teen from a box of clichés and forgot to add anything resembling a human personality. Even the weirdly shoehorned-in “dance-off” moment feels tone-deaf, bordering on parody. A breakdancing scene would’ve been more era-appropriate—and, frankly, more entertaining. And then there’s the unnecessary “two days earlier” cold open, a tired and useless trope that serves no purpose here except to announce, “Hey, something bad is going to happen!” We already know. It’s a Fear Street movie. While this installment is a step down from the previous three films, it's still a cut above much of what’s dumped into the horror pipeline. There's a solid cast, a strong visual identity, and decent kills, but too much of Prom Queen plays it safe. It’s just not mean enough, sharp enough, or clever enough to leave a lasting impression.
- ricomckee26 maj 2025I loved the first three Fear Streets and had been waiting for this movie! It is a bad 80's movie but with no camo, lousy kills, and nothing to make you want to finish the movie. You know pretty much from the start who the killer will be and there is no twist. The kill scenes are weak and give no tension. Everything from the dance off to the ending is beginner hour at best. The "Final" Girl never steps up. There is a ridiculous amount of 80's Style girl bullying and that was the real horror here. They need to do a lot to redeem this especially having as much time as they did to make this movie.
- D.P.G.11 september 2025Its a bad horror movie. Full of tropes not on the level of the classics, but its watchable.
- anaj43425 augusti 2025Not bad, definitely watchable, good one to add to the horror Marathon, I just think it was missing something.
- Ryan G7 juni 2025Loved OG trilogy & its release strategy, 80s got me hyped. Didn’t hit the same, however still worth a watch. Hope the feedback filters through.
- Jaffer4 juni 2025This movie falls short on nearly every front. The acting is weak, with several cringe-worthy moments throughout. It doesn’t live up to the Fear Street name, and even as a standalone slasher film, it fails to deliver. I’d recommend skipping this one.
- Daniel Vander23 augusti 2025Really good
- Allie Tran30 maj 2025Pretty much a stereotypical teen slasher that doesn’t bring anything innovative to the table. Although the Fear Street Trilogy is merely unbeatable, this doesn’t come anywhere close to give it grace. The ideas for the kills were pretty good but with weak execution and the ending was one of the only parts I enjoyed.
- ghost0ne13 augusti 2025I’d rather get stuck in a real high school prom than sit through this again
- Austin Burke27 maj 2025Prom Queen struggles to keep up with its predecessors, mostly due to lackluster script and generic character tropes. The kills are fun-enough, but it offers little beyond the typical shtick. Also, everything is over-exaggerated in such a “YA” way.
- Burnharm26 maj 2025The 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.
- Josh13 augusti 2025Slow… boring
