I may have mentioned before how our lives revolve around the academic year, so the end of schools is essentially our beginning of summer, even though it happens in May for us. Early May. In Florida, though, summer may have well been in place for months already, weather wise.

  • The Prowler (1981): This is only the first and not the last example that graduation parties are not a good idea.
  • Graduation Day (1981): we have many many movies featuring Linnea Quigley.
  • House of Sorority Row (1982): I’ve seen enough movies to know not to do pranks, ever.
  • Hide and Go Shriek (1988): For their graduation party, a bunch of goofballs decide to hide in a furniture store after closing and party all night. Thankfully, a deranged killer comes after them. Please note: This is not the same movie as The Initiation (1984).
  • Can’t Hardly Wait (1997): we revisited this a while ago when indulging in some teen movie nostalgia and have since added it to our shelves.
  • The Perfect Score (2004): ages since I’ve seen this.
