 Only obliquely related to the previous three Prom Night movies, "Prom Night IV--Deliver Us From Evil" disregards everything except the church from "Prom Night II" and "Prom Night III" and just makes a sly reference to Jamie Lee Curtis from the original. Strangely enough, you get to catch a mere glipse of the prom itself, and the bulk of the movie instead takes place in a monastery. The monastery is not a bad setting, and you can't go wrong with having a darkened wine cellar for creepy anticipation. However, the movie feels longer than it is, and it takes a long time before any of the main characters are killed by a deranged, overzealous priest who has somehow acquired superhuman strength and the ability to spray fire from his bare hands! Although there is a fair amount of bloodshed, this film is not particularly gory and doesn't have much to distinguish itself from the other standardized slashers. The bottom line: "Prom Night IV--Deliver Us From Evil" is nothing special. While it's not a complete fiasco, you would do well to spend your 95 minutes on something else. |
