Prom Night IV: Deliver Us From Evil (1992)

In 1957 Father Jonas killed a teenage couple who are sinning by having sex in the back seat of their car at the prom.  His fellow priests lock him up in the basement of their monastery and keep him sedated.

Thirty years later, there is a changing of the guard and the new caregiver decides Father Jonas doesn't need sedation.  Zip zoom, the caregiver is dead and Father Jonas is on the lookout for more sinning teens.

Two teenage couples decide to spend the weekend at one's fathers mansion which is a former monastery.  Oh heavens, what ever will become of them?  

Father Jonas reminded me of Hecubus from the Kids in the Hall, which was very distracting.  Also after thirty years being shackled unconscious on a bed, his muscles would have atrophied.  Yet he has not aged a day and is in great shape.  Perhaps it is his insanity that keeps him fit and young.
