As a horror fan first and foremost, I tend to be a little more critical when it comes to new scary flicks. The genre is so oversaturated these days (stories regurgitated like leftovers reheated one too many times) that it’s a real challenge for movies to stand out.
Unfortunately, that’s exactly the case with “Fear Street: Prom Queen,” a new Netflix horror movie about about a night that turns deadly as the prom queen candidates start dropping like flies. What should’ve been a scary experience ended up feeling like the “Stranger Things” season 2 finale, where the kids attended a cute school dance.
