Horror films seem to be opening up every weekend in 1980. Many of those films I saw. Most of those films that I saw were not very good however one film that deserves to be seen is "Prom Night". Yes some people call it a rip-off of "Carrie" but this film doesn't have anybody with telekinesis.
"Prom Night" has been stuck with the label "Slasher Film" however it is much better then the average horror film. It might not have very believable plot however it does deliver scares and with (with one exception) a minimum of gore.
Now this film is available on the cheap. You can find it on Amazon for less then $10. The film is usually packaged with other films and the price is still less then $12 however a warning the transfer/picture quality
isn't the best.
Its too bad that a special edition DVD has never been released. I know if Shout Factory did a Special Edition it would be one of their best sellers. I just hope the negative is still around and someone is willing to do a restoration.
