But when a gutsy outsider puts herself in the running, and the other girls start mysteriously disappearing, the class of ’88 is suddenly in for one hell of a prom night.

Fear Street: Prom Queen

What to Know

Critics Consensus

Tired and uninspired, Fear Street plays like an '80s retread of better slashers, while ensuring the winning crown does not go to this Prom Queen.

This deeply disappointing new Fear Street instalment leans too hard into worn-out tropes and excessive gore, at the expense of fun, engaging characters or any genuine scares. Go to Full Review

While the identity of the villain knocking off the prom queen candidates is obvious, the sheer uninhibited Road Runner meets Wile E. Coyote excitement of the climax remains delightfully infectious. Go to Full Review

There’s a lot of limb-severing and such. But “Fear Street: Prom Queen” never rises above its pedestrian concept, which simply lifts cliches from standard slice-and-dice opuses...without ever figuring just how seriously it wants to take them. Go to Full Review

The audio description track here is one of my favorites of the year. Liz Gutman’s writing is flawless, and the description captures every gory detail. While the movie is mixed for me, the description might be the reason I’m leaning positive. Go to Full Review

'Fear Street: Prom Queen' is a disappointing entry in this franchise as well as a symptom of this era of streaming slop. Horror fans deserve better than films like this. Go to Full Review

The sad truth is that nothing about this film works. Not the performances, not the comedy, not the storyline, nothing. Go to Full Review

Isareeya S 5d I can't believe it's a part of Fear Street franschise. It's so cringe. It's more like a self-insert fanfic than a horror movie. See more Muhammad A @Abd73 5d Very underwhelming.... Even the plot twists felt too bland and almost has nothing to do with the clever writing of the original trilogy See more bob t Jan 2 It's not as bad as people say but it's definitely worse than all the other Fear Street movies. See more Samuel M Dec 25 O pior que filme que eu já vi See more Nathan J @TribianiRamoray Dec 25 Rating: 4.1/10 A hollow, uninspired entry abandoning the trilogy's clever mythology for a generic prom night slasher. Highlights - Nostalgic Nod: Final twist references Sarah Fier lore. - Solid Cast: Lili Taylor, Katherine Waterston, Suzanna Son elevate material. - Decent Aesthetic: 1988 setting captures late 80s vibe. Criticisms - Generic Plot: Painfully unoriginal, like a 90s direct-to-video slasher. - Lacks Depth: "Wolfpack" are caricatures; protagonist Lori lacks grit. - Uninspired Kills: Poor lighting, quick cuts obscure violence. Verdict A disappointing misstep trading rich storytelling for a bland slasher. Skippable unless you're a completist horror fan. Rewatch Part Two: 1978 for a better retro fix. See more Madison T @madison23 Dec 12 Very underwhelming, I expected for it to somewhat relate to the fear street trilogy. See more Read all reviews
