Prom Night 1980 (w/ Janel Schermerhorn)

It’s PROM NIGHT and everything is alright... kinda... with this singular Canuxploitation slasher classic starring Jamie Lee Curtis, Leslie Nielsen, and “the oldest teenagers since Grease.” Who's our date for the special episode? Why it is Janel Schermerhorn, the very woman Patrick took to his own senior prom! Oh, and the truth comes out!! Along the way, we wait in vain for the eventual disco-pocalypse, discuss why a dead body would be retrieved by a rope truck, dig into the reason why every Canadian couple wants to have sex in a locker room, propose a Prom Night/9-to-5 crossover and bare witness to “man-on-van combat.” We also delve into a wild Prom Night fan theory to begin and end them all! Plus, a Promposal in the form of Choose Your Own Death-venture. Make memories with this special episode that will last a lifetime. Or at least feel like one.

In each episode, Patrick Hamilton and Gena Radcliffe unpack all the gory details of horror cinema's least discussed topic: the characters. From Friday the 13th to the Evil Dead franchise and beyond, our mission is to detail each hack, slash, and decapitation in the hopes that a victim's untimely end is just the beginning of the jokes we can make about them.
