Drive Me Crazy is a 1999 American teen romantic comedy film based on the novel How I Created My Perfect Prom Date by Todd Strasser.

The film, despite mixed-to-negative reviews, with criticism aimed at its unoriginal plot, grossed $22.6 worldwide, against an $8 million budget, making it a moderate box office success.

[3] Nicole Maris, part of her high school's in-crowd, and Chase Hammond, a rebellious prankster bored with the status quo, grew up as next door neighbors and were childhood best friends.

During their senior year, Nicole dedicates much of her time into planning their high school's centennial dance, which she expects to go to with popular basketball player Brad Seldon.

One night, Nicole calls Chase and asks him to the dance, suggesting that they pretend to date to make Brad and Dulcie jealous.

Nicole gives Chase a makeover to blend in with her preppy group, introducing him to social events where he befriends popular kids, realizing that he has more in common with them than he thought.

Despite insisting to his old friends, Dave Ednasi and Ray Neeley, that it is all a scam and that he has not changed, they can clearly see the transformation.

Meanwhile, Brad and Kathy break up due to lies spread by Alicia, and Dulcie also ends things with Joshua.

Chase attempts to talk to Nicole about what happened with Alicia, but she rebuffs him, reminding him of the easy out clause.

Drive Me Crazy was filmed in and around Salt Lake City, Utah, including Ogden and Sandy.
