    FULL SPOILER-FREE REVIEW @ https://movieswetextedabout.com/fear-street-prom-queen-review-a-blood-soaked-letdown/

    "Fear Street: Prom Queen is a dispensable entry in a saga that deserves more attention and care.

    Though it checks the technical boxes and delivers the bare minimum for nostalgic slasher fans, it completely fails at what made the original trilogy such a surprising success: deep characters, a cohesive story, and emotionally weighty themes.

    With a generic script, forced connections, and a frustrating conclusion, Matt Palmers film ends up as more of a forgettable footnote than a worthy new chapter in the legacy of Sarah Fier."

    The newest one, Prom Queen, dropped yesterday, and I actually really liked it. It was genuinely good. Now, lets go back a bit. When I first watched the original Fear Street trilogy, I absolutely hated them. They got on my nerves, I was just so annoyed. I didnt enjoy them at all.

    But I gave them a second chance, and slowly, I started falling in love with the series. I began to see that they were actually great films. I rewatched the trilogy yesterday in preparation for Prom Queen, and oh my goodness, they're good. Like, really good.

    I love slasher films, I truly do. And I especially love the way Fear Street plays with different decades, how all the films are linked, and how the story unfolds. I love the universe theyve created with t...
