Australia has a proud tradition of stomach-turning horror masterpieces (like "The Babadook"), but my favorite might be 2009’s "The Loved Ones." Lord knows there have been countless daughter-of-"Carrie" prom night horror movies, but "The Loved Ones" is the only film to rival "Carrie" in terms of intensity, black humor, and out-and-out scariness.
This is the story of what happens when somebody turns down the awkward girl’s invitation to prom. From there things get … hellish. And just wait until you find out who (or what) the titular "loved ones" are.
