Visible crew/equipment: When Kim is in the empty gym dancing, Wendy shows up to confront her. When the camera is on Kim you can see the boom mic coming from the bottom of the screen.
Kelly: Oh Drew, there was this horrible voice, on the telephone.
Drew: A heavy breather?
Kelly: No, worse than that.
Drew: He turned you on, didn't he? I ought to try that sometime.
Kelly: I'm serious.
Drew: So am I.
Trivia: The line "It's not who you go with, it's who takes you home" is said in every Prom Night movie, even despite the fact that the later films aren't true sequels to this one.
Question: I understand why the killer was after the 4 teenagers that were responsible for Robin's death. But there's something I can't figure out. The girl that was with Slick and having sex with him in his van, she wasn't one of the 4 teens. Neither was Slick. First he killed the pigtails girl, she was there. And then he went after the girl and Slick in the van, but neither of them had connection to Robin's death that I could figure out. He then went after the girl in the red dress who was one of the kids, and then went after the other two, the guy and the main girl. But Slick and the girl he was having sex with in his van, I can't figure out why the killer left the school to go after them. Why?
Chosen answer: The girl in the van was Jude. She was involved in Robin's death. You see her flashback as young Jude when she receives her prank phone call then she meets Slick walking on her way to school.

Correction: That just means she didn't die instantly. She did have bad bodily damage and appeared to be slashed up by the glass quite a bit, probably even the neck. But she only fell from a couple stories up. That would very well have killed her, but not necessarily instantly, and she may have kept breathing for a few moments.
