Time stops at midnight at the Senior Prom for five students, one murderous counselor, and John. They must find the courage to face themselves or, when time starts again, they may find that they are joining John's Club.This is apparently not a well-known movie. IMDb does not even have a poster image for it (as of October 2015). Which is just as well, I suppose, because the image that Netflix uses is not that great and almost scared me off giving it a chance.We have some nice performances, including one from Zack Ward before he really hit it big. That alone makes it worth watching. But then add in Kim Coates and a few others... this is a very nostalgic sort of film, like a mid-1990s film trying to capture the sort of feeling that the 1980s had with movies like "Waxwork".

A group of teenagers find themselves trapped in an enormous castle on prom night. The teens discover that there is no way out and try to figure out exactly why they are stuck in the place. Director Brenton Spencer relates the fascinatingly quirky premise at a hypnotically gradual pace, does a masterful job of creating a supremely creepy and surreal anything-can-happen nightmarish atmosphere, makes excellent use of the opulent location, and maintains an intriguing aura of mystery throughout. Robert C. Cooper's offbeat and inventive script keeps the viewer guessing for the most part about what's really going on and comes complete with a strong central moral message. Joel Wyner brings an inspired and energetic element of lip-smacking warped lunacy as sarcastic smartaleck demonic minion John Rutman. Kim Coates likewise hits it out of the ballpark with his extremely intense and scary portrayal of mean and menacing high school guidance counselor Mr. Carver. Moreover, there are solid contributions from Andrea Roth as the sweet and vulnerable Amy, Rino Romano as nice guy Evan, Zack Ward as impotent brute Kyle, Kelli Taylor as Kyle's fed-up girlfriend Laura, and Paul Popwich as the nerdy Greg. The brooding score by Paul Zaza and Peter Breiner further enhances the ominous and enigmatic mood. Curtis Petersen's slick cinematography makes nifty occasional use of stylized slow motion and offers a wealth of startling grotesque images. Recommended viewing for fans of bizarre fright fare.

Despite what the ONLY other person who commented on this film said, I actually really enjoyed this movie. My best friend and I must have watched it about ten times! We would always rent a film on the weekend (or two), and if we couldn't find anything else to watch, we would rent this one. Okay, so the special effects were a little silly looking (it was made in 1994 and very low budget!), and the acting could have been better, but all in all, the story was pretty good, and it made you wonder...However, this has now possibly become one of the hardest movies to get your hands on (believe me, I've been trying!!), so my review may never help out anyone, because I can't imagine many people even know about this movie, unless they are a Kim Coates or Matthew Ferguson fan! Please, if you get your hands on this movie, sit down, turn the lights low, and enjoy it, it's okay to laugh a little at it, it's a B-movie after all! What's the fun in watching a B-movie if you can't laugh at it! I'm not going to give the story away, just in case any actually does see it, but the premise is, a group of friends/lovers are celebrating their prom in a spooky old mansion/castle, and then, it's like time stops, and every one disappears, except for this group of friends...and a mysterious teacher (councelor?) with mischief on his mind...and one other kid that no one seems to know. Basically the kids get 'enrolled' into the Club (ah-ha, remember the name of the movie?), and the movie follows the kids as they all are initiated in different, and sometimes gruesome ways. I especially liked Matthew Ferguson's (Darren's) initiation...Well, there you have it. A positive review and a negative one...You decide!

Group of teenagers fall victim to the devil on Prom Night. He freezes time at midnight and gives the teens the chance to either kill themselves, be killed, or he simply lets them act out crimes they would normally commit. Sometimes incoherent flick, is original and better done then you would expect. The special effects are rather well done and creative and the cast has appeal. Rated R; Nudity, Graphic Violence, Profanity, and Sexual Situations.
