In order to avoid a ghostly figure in the road, high school senior Brent Mitchell wraps his car around a tree, killing his father. Constantly confronted by his mother's emotional collapse after the accident, Brent escapes into a marijuana fueled world of loud metal music to block the pain and guilt. Dejected and out of sorts, he has a shot at happiness with his girlfriend Holly, a grounded, caring girl with drop dead good looks, a dream date for the high school prom. But his plans are thwarted by a disturbing series of events that take place under a mirrored disco ball, involving pink satin, glitter, syringes, nails, power drills and a secret admirer. Brent has become the prom king at a macabre, sadistic event where he is the entertainment. Written by Anonymous
During this rather surprisingly intense film, i kept saying to myself at least three times, this can't be happening. The story starts like a teen romance during a lead up to an end of year dance spectacular, however, it isn't long until it gets down and dirty before you know it. Lola likes Brent, but Brent who has issues turns Lola down to be her date to the prom in favour of his girlfriend Holly, as you would. The following things that happen, include kidnapping, cannibalism, almost incest and a shattered mirror-ball are just mind blowing. Little budget, so what, the acting and intensity is on the money, big time. See this asap before anybody gives away the Toxic Advenger style finale.
