The Dance of the Dead episode of Best Horror Movie You Never Saw was Written by Cody Hamman, Narrated by Jason Hewlett, Edited by Juan Jimenez, Produced by John Fallon and Tyler Nichols, and Executive Produced by Berge Garabedian.

Did you ever wonder what it would be like if the zombie apocalypse coincided with prom night? The dead rising from their graves, calling out for brains. Disrupting the school event that’s supposed to be a great, memorable moment in a teen’s life. That’s what happens in the 2008 film Dance of the Dead (watch it Here). Which would have been a great sequel to The Return of the Living Dead if it were part of that franchise. And if you haven’t seen it, it’s definitely The Best Horror Movie You Never Saw.

Although Dance of the Dead was released in 2008, the first draft of the screenplay was written eleven years earlier.

I didn’t know anything about Dance of the Dead when I first saw it sitting on the "new releases" shelf at the local Blockbuster in the fall of 2008. But its title intrigued me: zombies and a high school prom in one movie? You didn’t have to twist my arm (or rip it off), I knew right then that I had to watch it (and I hadn't even seen the devil bong yet).

After watching empathetic high school cliques unite to slay zombies at the prom, I would go on to recommend director Gregg Bishop and writer Joe Ballarini’s Dance of the Dead to anyone who would listen. Little did I know that stars were aligning, and years later I would connect with Ballarini and Bishop and get the chance to do what my 17-year-old self never thought was possible: host 10th anniversary screenings of Dance of the Dead.

One decade after they launched out of their graves to take a bite out of the big screen at the Screamfest Horror Film Festival, the zombies in Gregg Bishop's Dance of the Dead are returning to Hollywood for a special 10th anniversary screening of the cult horror comedy, followed by a living dead prom party!

After an infectiously fun screening and cast/crew reunion in Atlanta, the Dance of the Dead 10th anniversary celebration will continue on Saturday, May 19th at Hollywood's Tcl Chinese 6 Theatres.

Presented by Screamfest and kicking off at 7:30pm Pt, the Dance of the Dead 10th anniversary Los Angeles screening will reunite the cast and crew of the cult film for a reflective Q&A moderated by Daily Dead Senior Editor and Corpse Club co-host Derek Anderson. The crew in attendance will include director/producer Gregg Bishop, writer Joe Ballarini, music composer Kristopher Carter,...

One decade ago, the living dead launched out of their graves to crash the high school prom in 2008's Dance of the Dead. To celebrate 10 years of the Devil Bong, the brick channel, and not knowing how to shoot machetes, the cast and crew of the cult horror comedy will gather at the historic Plaza Theatre in Atlanta tonight for a very special anniversary screening in association with the Atlanta Film Society, and Daily Dead's Derek Anderson will also be in attendance to help celebrate the innovative and underrated zombie movie.

Kicking off at 9:30pm Et tonight at the Plaza Theatre, the Dance of the Dead 10th anniversary screening will feature director Gregg Bishop and many of the hard-working people who helped make Dance of the Dead a reality, including lead actress Greyson Chadwick and co-stars Justin Welborn, Jonathan Spencer, Michael Aaron Milligan, and James Jarrett, as well as...

Although mainstream horror cinema has been slow to churn out titles, and as of late seems to have opted to focus primarily on remaking the classics of yesteryear, there are a vast quantity of low budget and independent horror films coming out every week. Due to limited means and the microscopic marketing budgets associated with independent filmmaking, it’s easy for quality films to slip through the cracks. In response, we created this recurring segment to explore some interesting horror movies that might have flown under your radar. [If you missed out on our previous lists of forgotten gems, follow the links to Parts One, Two, and Three of our series.] Now we present yet another five horror films from the past five years that you may have overlooked... but should definitely see. Dream Home (2010) It’s difficult to describe this multifaceted film, as it functions on so many different levels. On the surface, it’s a slasher, but it’s also a very dark comedy, and it's packed with social commentary. Hong...

I hear a lot of casual horror fans talking about the lack of quality horror films in recent years... and to some extent they have a point. Studio-funded horror films seem to be less prevalent than they were three decades ago, and many mass-marketed horror films are lighter on gore, nudity, and the like than the features of yesteryear (with the obvious exception of the Evil Dead reboot). But there are still plenty of quality horror films being made – it’s just incumbent upon horror fans to look a little harder. There are a plethora of well-made horror pictures being released every year; they just aren’t all getting the mainstream attention that they deserve. In an attempt to remedy that, and shine the spotlight on some outstanding films that haven’t received a great deal of publicity, we are showcasing five titles from the past five years that may have passed you by,...

TV show description:

This dramedy follows a group a five friends who, when they graduated college, were filled with lofty goals, romantic dreams and hope. Unfortunately things don't always go as planned.

The show picks up one year later, when reality has set in for the group. They struggle to stay optimistic through life's challenges -- dead-end jobs, terrible bosses, underemployment, and romantic mistakes.

With plans of becoming the next Great American Novelist, Sophia (Michelle Ang) graduated from college with high expectations. Finding herself with a serious case of writer's block while working in a minimum...

The rousing celebration of college graduation followed quickly by the disappointment of dashed dreams and dead-end jobs — such is the course of post-college life that many twentysomethings know well. Now MTV is capturing that rocky journey into adulthood in a new scripted series, Underemployed, set to premiere Tuesday, Oct. 16.

EW has an exclusive clip from the show’s first episode. In a scene reminiscent of the opening minutes of the classic post-grad drama Reality Bites, which features a quartet of young adults figuring it all out, Underemployed introduces us to its five stars on the day of their college graduation...

For the kids of MTV's Underemployed, post-college life isn't as glamorous as they had imagined.

The new series follows five friends — Miles (Diego Boneta), Lou (Jared Kusnitz), Raviva (Inbar Lavi), Sophia (Michelle Ang) and Daphne (Sarah Habel) — who, one year after graduating college, realize their real world includes dead-end jobs, terrible bosses and romantic mistakes. But it's not all bad: They soon learn to also appreciate their newfound freedom, sense of family and incredible life experiences.

Diane Haithman contributes to Deadline’s TV coverage. At today’s TCA, Craig Wright, creator and executive producer of MTV’s new one-hour scripted drama/comedy series Underemployed (premiere date Tba) was asked about obvious parallels between this show and HBO’s Emmy-nominated Girls. Actually, the title Girls or the name of creator Lena Dunham was never specifically mentioned, but a questioner asked about “an HBO show” whose creator scoffs at the idea of being the “voice of a generation.” Does Wright, in his late 40s, see himself as the voice of the millennials? Related: MTV Sets ‘Jersey Shore’ Season Premiere Date, Series Renewals: TCA “I don’t see myself as a voice of the generation, but I do think I’m someone who’s interested in listening to the generation”, said Wright, whose TV credits include creating Dirty Sexy Money and writing for Six Feet Under.

Los Angeles, California (X17online) - MTV has ordered six original new series.

Chicago – If your ideal vision of prom is best represented by “Carrie,” then odds are Disney’s “Prom” is not for you. In fact, if you are a high schooler, were a high schooler or may become a high schooler, “Prom” is guaranteed to strike you as monumentally childish. It’s the sort of harmless dreck so mediocre and generic that it could’ve been made in any time period. In a sense, it’s timeless dreck.

See if this sounds familiar: a perky popular overachiever finds herself falling for the long-haired brooding loser with a motorcycle and a criminal record. “He’s a rude, arrogant menace!” she shouts early in the film, thus solidifying that she will undoubtedly end up in his arms at the final fade-out. Seriously, how many “Breakfast Club” retreads and Disneyfied teenage dramas does the human race need?

Blu-Ray Rating: 2.0/5.0

Of course, the real inspiration...

Prom is one of those films that comes along every once in a while with the general purpose of proving yet again that John Hughes was (not counting anything after 1990) a God, and moreover that the "era" spanning roughly 1986-1994 was perhaps the greatest time to grow up in all of history.

As a High School effort, focusing on a lot of angst, relationship woes, rebels, and a philosophic geek who can't get a date, you'd lean toward only the John Hughes reference, but the film features a star (Thomas McDonell) giving a circa-early-90s Johnny Depp impression, and it's best effort at song is a cover of a song by The Cranberries.

The upshot is that, while we need to create new material for those who aren't going to revisit "oldies," we're exceedingly aware that teen angst entertainment has been perfected, and the only move now is to recreate and redistribute it,...

Back in the days of yore, when I was a pre-teen girl, I was supposed to be reading magazines like Mizz - wholesome, girlish publications about pastel-coloured hair clips and blue-eyed boyband members. In reality, my friends and I were reading Just17, which sometimes included raunchy advice about gauging your bra size and how to flirt with your extremely hypothetical date. Meanwhile, actual 17 year old girls were reading Cosmopolitan's sex technique tips, and putting them into practice. (Just who was actually reading Mizz, then? I have no idea.)

Disney's Prom is the latest in movies that are all about high school life. The stars of Prom tell us their favorite high school movies!

Two of the stars both have a place in their heart for perhaps the most iconic high school movie of all time. "My favorite high school movie, let's go classic, let's go Breakfast Club," says Jonathan Keltz, who plays Nova's crush Brandon. "We have a couple of Breakfast Club-esque moves in this.That's a good one. John Bender!"

Jared Kusnitz, who plays the best boyfriend ever Justin Wexler, is also on board with the John Hughes classic. "I'm all about Breakfast Club, all about it. I love it!"

Yin Chang, who plays aspiring fashion designer and Justin's conflicted girlfriend Mei Kwan, picks a high school movie with one of the best prom scenes ever. "I loved Never Been Kissed with Drew Barrymore. I love that movie,...

Chicago – There are many essential questions in life. What is my purpose? How do I find my place in the universe? Where did I put my mobile phone? But the most important of all, as Aimee Teegarden is about to experience, is who will I get to take me to “Prom.”

Rating: 3.5/5.0

Prom, a new film produced by Walt Disney Pictures, is old school. It’s not set in another time, it is set within a former teen movie framework. In the tradition of director John Hughes, Prom portrays high school as a character challenge, with all the highs, lows, heartaches and the strange hope that a transition of life has been achieved.

Nova (Aimee Teegarden) is little Miss Perfect. She’s class president, scholarship student and of course, head of the Prom Committee. Her world is turned upside down when the meticulous decorations for the ‘Starry Night’ theme are...

For those who are in high school, or maybe work at one, the release of Disney's sweet and wholesome "Prom" movie kicks off that heavily hyped season of dress shopping, date anxiety and general excitement that surrounds one of America's most storied traditions.

When MTV News caught up with the film's stars, we asked them to discuss the challenging task of asking someone to prom and what should be done in order to get a prospective date to say "yes."

"An elaborate way," Janelle Ortiz said. "I think it has to be an elaborate way, because you're going to remember prom for the rest of your life."

"It's got to be creative," Joe Adler added. "Throw some effort on it.

For every high schooler who spends weeks panicking over who they'll take to prom, or works up the courage to invite a long-standing crush, there's also the couple that's been together so long that prom is a guarantee-- just another step in their long, happy life together. In Disney's movie Prom, which opens this weekend, Mei Kwan and Justin Wexler are that couple; played by Yin Chang and Jared Kusnitz, they're seniors who are already looking ahead to attending the University of Michigan together, though what Justin doesn't yet know is that Mei has other plans for her future. Both Yin and Jared have years of acting experience behind them, unlike much of the Prom cast, and both have recently played high schoolers on television, Yin in a recurring role on Gossip Girl and Jared in a recent role on Secret Life of the American Teenager.

The film follows several high school students as the few weeks left before their senior prom tick away. Nova (Aimee Teegarden) — senior class president, head of the prom-planning committee and all-around good girl — wants to have the ideal prom experience, one where the cliques and torrid relationships of high school melt away “for one perfect moment.” Her plans are thwarted when a...

When it comes to high school movies, there tends to be sizable amounts of awkward romantic drama, non-stop malicious he-said-she-said gossip and practical prankster hijinks that culminate in full fervor at the penultimate teenage event: the prom.

So it makes perfect sense why Disney would cut right to the heart of things and make a movie called, well, "Prom."

The new flick unfolds the saga of several teenagers as they deal with the pressures of the upcoming dance: whether it be overachiever Nova (Aimee Teegarden) trying to transform tough rebel Jesse (Thomas McDonell) into the perfect date, or others dealing with tight romantic entanglements and brooding bullies, everyone has their own Prom-iscous story to tell.

Before you set your "Prom" date, check out five clips from the movie.

1. Justin (Jared Kusnitz) spells out chapters of his relationship with Mei (Yin Chang) before asking her to prom. Clever concept dude,...

Yin Chang previously played a minion of Blair Waldorf on the CW’s Gossip Girl. She has now switched over to film, and is in Disney’s new film Prom.

Reel Movie News had a chance to catch up with her about her new film and what it was like going back to high school.

Growing up I was very outgoing and then I hit middle and high school and I became very shy," she admits. "Toward junior and senior year I stepped out of my shell."

Check out the rest of the interview with Yin below:

Tell me about Prom.

It’s a coming of age movie about a group of teens whose insecurities impact their future, falling in love, going through downfalls and exciting, who all wake up to their one special prom night. It’s very reminiscent of a John Hughes and Cameron Crowe classics like Breakfast...

Rating: 2.5/5

Studio: Disney

The first act of Prom verges on insufferable – capped off by a quickfire montage of boys asking girls to the big dance in the most gimmicky ways possible, so rapidly presented that it may trigger Ptsd in anyone who had a bad prom experience. However, it does get better, especially as the film settles into itself and its large pool of characters. There’s no Love Actually tie-in tricks here - some of the characters in the film know each other and have connecting stories, some don’t. The link is that they all attend the same high school and are all having some sort of issue creating a positive prom experience.

Well, that rice krispy treat sat on a buffet table at a party in the movie Prom and the thought of a student eating that tainted treat was the most emotionally stimulating point of the film. Think that was intentional? Who’s ready for that magical time of year, Prom? Well, these...
