Horror remake snags “John Tucker” actress
Brittany Snow (TVs “American Dreams”, “John Tucker Must Die”) has snagged the lead role in the remake of “Prom Night”; reprising a role made famous by a young Jamie Lee Curtis.
According to Variety, the Sony project is being captained by Nelson McCormick, with Neil Moritz (“The Fast and the Furious”) occupying the producer’s paddle.
The original film told of a dark secret amongst a group of children that comes back to haunt them in the form of a vengeful killer on their prom night. Can’t see them tweaking the storyline too much…. Except maybe writing in a few more [pop] music cues.
“Prom Night” is one of merely a handful of classic horror films currently undergoing the remake treatment; others in the works include “Silent Night, Deadly Night”, “Terror Train”, “Halloween” and “Day of the Dead”.
