Question -
I have been looking for this one movie for a long time. I watch it when I was like 12 and never really got the name than. But the movie creeped me out than. It is about this group of kids....I think at their prom in the big mansion. And while there this ghost is leading them to their death. In one scene this guy get his head chopped off by a gullitine. If you can please help me find the name.
Thanks

Hi, Lisa...

How sure are you about the guillitine? I'm wondering if what you are thinking about is the original "Prom Night," but there was no guillitine in it... great decapitation by axe, though...

Was Jamie Lee Curtis in this film? Send me a follow-up and tell me anything else you might remember from this movie...

Pcg,
I am postive that it was in the movie. This guy that had blond hair and was kind of a pot head got his head chopped off with it in the houses attic in the movie. While that ghost looks like Billy Zane but I already tried that search and nothing came up. I know not much to work with. Sorry. But it was almost 11 years ago that I saw the movie.

Hi, again, Lisa...

Still looking here... haven't given up yet, just not really making any headway yet.. the "guillotine" thing is really hanging me up... I keep getting links to a movie called "Waxwork," and I know that's not what you are looking for...

Did you think of anything else that might help the cause?

I am a devout fan of horror films, from the Universal classics to the schlock of the 50`s, on through the 70`s to the splatter era, and straight up to "28 Days Later." Tom Savini films are an extra treat. Ask me about "Knightriders" if you don`t believe me. Anyone else own a copy of that classic?
