The second film is a sequel in name only, and after that the series changes what it is about twice more.
There is no single thread here. Pick the one you actually want, because the four original films are close to four separate movies.
Seen some of these already? Tap the circles to tick them off. The full list below fills in as you go.
The famous one. A straight slasher with Jamie Lee Curtis, and it stands entirely alone: no later film picks it up and nothing in it sets up the sequels.
Start here instead if you want the best film in the series. It was shot as its own movie and renamed, so you lose nothing by skipping the first, and it introduces Mary Lou, who is the only character the series ever continues.
The one film that follows on from another. It continues Mary Lou's story straight from the second film, with a different actress in the part, and it plays the whole thing for laughs.
Then what? Prom Night IV from 1991 abandons Mary Lou for an unrelated possessed priest story and only nods back once. The 2008 remake redoes the 1980 film and ignores everything between, so it works cold. A film called The Club from 1994 was developed as Prom Night V and released without the branding, so it is not an entry here.
A suggested way in, not an official one. The full list is below: tick anything off in either place.
Everything you tick is saved in this browser and nowhere else. An account is the only way to put your list on another device, and the only way to get it back if this browser clears its storage. It is free and it takes an email address and a password.
Sign in on your phone, your laptop, anything, and the same list is there, kept in step as you tick. Nothing to copy, nothing to remember.
All three are about this franchise and all three are for showing, not moving. The link and the picture open SagaList with that progress displayed next to whatever the person opening it has already ticked. The code is what a friend pastes into Compare below. None of them writes anything into anybody's list.
Read only. This never changes what you have saved, and nothing leaves your browser. The code has to be their code for this same franchise: codes do not carry a name, so one from somewhere else may not be recognised as wrong.
Removes everything ticked here, in this browser. If you are signed in it clears on your other devices too. If you are not, there is no other copy and this cannot be undone.
Your email is confirmed and your account is ready. Everything you tick is saved on this device, as it always was.

Your SagaList account.
Nothing else happens until you follow the link. If it has not arrived in a few minutes, look in your spam folder and search for SagaList. It is sent from a no-reply address on our own domain, so there is nothing to reply to.
Both addresses get an email: the new one to confirm it, and the old one so that nobody can move your account without you knowing. Nothing changes until you follow the link.
Signing out leaves everything you have ticked on this device exactly where it is. It only stops it syncing.
This removes your account, your email address, and the progress stored on our side. It cannot be undone and we cannot get it back for you.
Nothing is charged and nothing is cancelled, because SagaList does not take payments. What goes is your account, your email address and the progress synced to our side. What stays is everything ticked in the browser on this device.
