‘Carrie’ (1976) Keep in mind that regardless of what happens, your prom won’t be the worst.

‘Pretty in Pink’ (1986) If you have to choose between someone named Duckie and someone in the Brat Pack, stay home and watch “Carrie.”

‘She’s All That’ (1999) You, too, can be Pygmalion. Just make sure the ugly girl you choose is actually incredibly hot.

‘Whatever It Takes’ (2000) Here’s the lesson: if you rented this movie, you have god-awful taste. Immediately rethink your tux.
