Published

on

The Synapse Films Facebook page made a major announcement during the ongoing San Diego Comic-Con. Get ready for prom, again…

And so, today, I have another surprise (although many of you kind of figured this was coming based on yesterday’s reveal of CURTAINS),” says the site. “The [Prom Night] negative is reportedly in poor condition, but we’re diving in today after our lab has performed many hours of fixing splices and repairs… A Texas Chain Saw Massacre-like restoration may be in order to make this work, but Synapse is up to the task.

So, get ready fro Jamie Lee Curtis in an HD version of the 1980 classic Prom Night!

A little girl is accidently killed playing a game with other kids in an old deserted schoolhouse. The kids swear to silence, but someone saw them do it. Ten years later, the same kids are anticipating the senior Prom and the night of their life. However, that shadow from the tress – the one who saw their deed – has chosen this night to seek revenge. It is going to be a Prom no one will forget.
