The acting in this movie is really good.

Scotty Burke

It is interesting even when nothing much happens, which is for most of its 3-hour running time. Read full review

.Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

PROM RIDE is a typically poorly-made indie horror flick with a novel premise, at least: it's a film about a bunch of teenagers being stalked by a maniac (yawn) except they're trapped inside a limousine on their way to the prom. Yep, it's single location time, but my heart sinks when I note that the same guy writes/produces/directs a picture because chances are he'll be overstretched and that's the case here. The horror content is severely truncated and the camerawork more likely to induce a headache than anything else.

Very low-budget, amateurish horror film that seems to be mostly the one-man show of Kazeem Molake, who wrote, produced, edited and directed and, according to the credits, executed all sorts of other tasks as well, including voicing the disguised killer who hijacks a Hummer limo carrying eight seniors to their high school prom. Molake clearly has some talent and skill, but not enough to know where he needs help, especially with regard to sound recording, which is pretty terrible, not that the dialogue you can hear is at all memorable or interesting.This is the kind of home-made film where all the background extras are credited, probably in lieu of payment. It makes use of lots of footage supposedly taken from various security, hand-held and cellphone cameras, but doesn't adhere strictly to the "found footage" aesthetic. The best thing about "Prom Ride" is the editing -- Molake manages to stitch together all these different vantage points coherently, in a way that doesn't lose viewers, though there are a few instances where it's not quite clear what was happening. He keeps the film visually dynamic, which is no small feat in a movie where the action is confined to a small space for much of its run-time. It's not especially visually creative -- we don't see anything here we haven't seen before, though I did like the killer's mirror mask -- but shooting from so many angles and sources on such a low budget and stitching something together that isn't a complete mess is an achievement in itself.Alas, the story is inane, as are the characters, if they can even be called that. "Prom Ride" is an object lesson in how to write so blandly that we spend what feels like hours with these seniors without getting to know or understand them at all. Perhaps that's just as well, given that their actions and motivations make no sense, and aren't remotely compelling. Cutting the bizarre musical number that looked like an audition reel for "High School Musical" could have helped. Cutting the entire poorly executed news-footage framing device would definitely have helped. But nothing can create interesting characters except good writing coupled with good acting, neither of which is on display here. Very little is asked of the attractive cast, and that's exactly what they deliver.Molake may go on to do much better work down the road. If he does, "Prom Ride" is probably something he and everyone else involved with it will want to bury.

At first I wasn't sure what I was watching since Prom Ride spends its first half on silly drama musical antic. After a while it suddenly sprints towards creepy horror scheme. The transition feels awkward as these teens barely go through decent characterization and eventually all the gory gimmicks later on seem like they are done for cheap shock effect.It opens with usual juvenile antics, and in an ultimate odd direction it shows musical score as the teens dance and sing for a good five minutes. Mixed with incessant babbling, the first half becomes very tedious as though it's seemingly lost on romcom drama genre. Plot appears fragmented, it doesn't show the characters beyond stereotypical high school students and it's doubtful that audience would care much for them aside from one or two sexual illustration.The second half trudges with the same confusing manner. Gore isn't believable, which makes the disorganized narrative even sillier. Visual has no clear direction either as it cripplingly shifts between found footage and usual third person with no merit on doing so. What dread it has is without concrete motives, the plot twist is forced and none of the actors have the ability to deliver the shoddy narrative.It tries to deliver depravity among friend just like Unfriended did, but it lacks any solid consistency. Prom Ride is a movie that smashes many different genres and plots, then futilely try to pieces its broken fragments to create any kind of story.
