the underlying plot of this (the murder in '45 at the dance, and then the continued serial killings decades later) totally ripped off the underlying/root-cause plot of Friday the 13thTHEN, My Bloody Valentine went on to rip off the underlying/root-cause plot of THIS..no complaints, though!! about any of them - they're all great fun!

Yeah, the horror genre seems to go with the flow of popularity. So, when Friday the 13th made alot of money, every horror film was a slasher film that had the same simplistic plot with no character development and a ton of gore.
Just like when Scream made it big in the 90's, every horror film had to have the witty characters who were to smart for their own good. They all have the same look and feel.
Just like how now SAW made it big and every film has to be overly graphic with it's gore and have some sort of torture element in it.
If a monster movie made it big, we would have 100 monster films that would be just like it but I want that cause we haven't had a GOOD monster film in YEARS. I miss the good old supernatural monsters that are near impossible to kill and can destroy people in seconds.

HUH?
There was no murder at a dance or even a dance in Friday the 13th.
The killer in Prowler is a jilted lover, while in Friday the 13th it is a grieving mother.
