Prom Night 2: Hello Mary Lou
Directed by Bruce Pittman
In this supernatural sequel to the slasher classic PROM NIGHT, sexually voracious bad girl Mary Lou Maloney is burned alive after winning prom queen in 1957. 30 years later, her spirit returns to possess Vicki, a cheerleader who’s been chafing under her parents’ repressive rules. Mom and Dad soon get an eyeful after Vicki starts acting out, but Mary Lou is more focused on revenge on the man who caused her early exit from Earth – who’s now the school principal. A fun and frothy mashup of A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET 2 and CARRIE, PROM NIGHT 2 is an essential entry in the ‘80s slasher-sequel canon.
In this supernatural sequel, the spirit of a sexually voracious teen possesses a high schooler.
Cast: Lisa Schrage, Michael Ironside, Wendy Lyon

I wish they would have part 3 on Shudder.
megan's body circa 1987
This movie whips ass. Not at all a sequel to the bland slasher Prom Night, this is a full on supernatural spookablast. Mary Lou who was too bad a bitch for the 1950s, and 30 years after a fatal prom accident she starts to possess meek teen Vicki. Solid premise and cast, some cool effects and kills, fast-paced and frequently funny (the editor's comic timing is on point).
It is a good second part. Enough said hehe.
mary lou did nothing wrong
