I only attended my junior prom, and I dont remember what the theme was.
21.The Kissing Booth(2018)
This movie is my enemy.
I hate this movie.
So why is it on this list?
Because I think about this movie a lot, and have watched it many, many times.
I hate it so much.
But it is a high-school dance in the spring, so it is a prom.
He has a great time!
19.Carrie(1976)
Okay.
This one is kind of personal.
Wouldnt that be so funny?
Because thats what happens to Carrie in the movieCarrie?
I didnt go to my senior prom in fear of this.
But its still a good scene, I guess.
18.Jawbreaker(1999)
TheJawbreakerprom is incredibly special because theres a murder and blackmail.
The three popular girls accidentally kill their friend during an elaborate prank and attempt to cover it up.
Its dramatic, its silly, and its very 90s.
But it does have a prom scene, and its sweet!
16.Grease(1978)
The National Bandstand dance isnt exactly a prom.
But it clearly takes place in the spring, so Im treating it as a prom.
The whole thing is basically a dance off, and its kind of … hot?
There is also the hand jive.
I mean, they just wanted John Travolta to dance, and honestly?
15.PromNight(1980)
This cult classic is one long series of prom scenes, basically.
At one point, a severed head rolls onto the dance floor.
Its a good time!
Those are some pretty high stakes.
On top of that, the proms theme is pretty high quality: Enchantment Under the Sea.
I have no idea what this means.
Like, is it an Atlantis thing?
Who knows and who cares?
Its a great time.
And it leans hard.
I dont really remember anything else about the movie besides this.
11.Footloose(1984)
Whats so great about this prom?
Its illegal, but looks like it was planned a year in advance.
The decorations are absurd theres shiny gold stuff everywhere.
They made a pact to all lose their virginity on prom night.
But what really sets this prom scene apart from the rest is Jason Biggss monologue about peer pressure.
I hate sex, he screams.
And so do I.
But thats why its so good.
8.Blockers(2018)
TheBlockersprom is a little too fancy.
I have been to worse-looking weddings that probably had a bigger budget.
And there is a crown that collapses into an astounding amount of large pieces.
This is a prom!
They just didnt want to call it that for reasons unbeknownst to me.
You know its not the 2010s because it is not a photobooth.
Their school is fancy as hell.
I mean it is basically a mansion?
So of course its prom location is basically Radio City Music Hall minus the seats.
This is the best prom ever.
Although I dont condone making bets about women!
I love this movie, but that is bad.
Okay, not really.
You would never suspect that everyone at this school is a professional dancer.
4.The Spectacular Now(2013)
The prom inSpectacular Nowis a little dark and lonesome.
My date was also not Miles Teller.
3.Shes All That(1999)
Who wouldnt love to have their prom in this environment?
Not too hot, not too cold.
There could have been more twinkle lights here its definitely under-decorated.
But I think the filmmakers almost definitely wanted Usher and his fedora!
to be the real standout here.
