Our High School Prom's coming up (Can you believe I'm the only Freshmen going? Woo-Hoo), and I was thinking of some films that had to do with Prom:

She's All That (Loved the dance scene)
Jawbreaker
Prom Night
Not Another Teen Movie
Pretty in Pink
10 Things I Hate About You

What's your favorites?

I used to love this film so much, and still do. It's such a great film about what teenagers are really like. Great movie. It's not all about prom, but there is a prom sub-plot in it, and that's where the climax occurs.

Duh! How could I have forgotten Angus? It's a very underrated film. It was cruel what they did to him at the prom, but it turned out to be a great ending!

The first movie that came into my mind when I saw the word PROM.

Lindsey, I can't believe you forgot Carrie! It was really sad the way the title character was treated by her classmates, and...well, I don't want to give away anything for the few schmoes who didn't see it, but it was really cool the way director Brian DePalma used slow motion POV shots to set up the revenge part (though I agree with Arrow that the film needed a more visceral finale)!

I just watched it a second ago, and it's actually a Winter Ball. Same difference actually!

You we're in the right though. The thread is titled "Best Prom Like Film" Don't worry I love that movie too...

American Pie.
She's all that.
Can't Hardly Wait - although there is no prom in the movie.
