Scream 2

The hip, darkly comical sequel to self-aware "SCREAM." Sidney Prescott, now in college, once again finds herself the target of a bloodthirsty, cloak-clad, mask-wearing, knife-wielding, psychotic killer whose penchant for pop movie trivia runs deep. This time, however, the body count is higher and the deaths more outrageous--traits of a true sequel, as noted by one unfortunate victim. Not as pithy as the first film, but still a satisfying, definite true-to-form teen slasher.

  • 1 stars out of 4

    Another dose of knowing, self-referential horror movie lore that finally twists back on itself with a killer who claims to have been corrupted by movies; it's very ingenious, but it's still junk.

    • Halliwell's Film Guide
  • "...The satire is more sophisticated....Director Wes Craven and writer Kevin Williamson have sharpened the focus along with their copycat killer's knives..." -- 3 out of 4 stars

    Rated - 4 stars

    This film, although not as good as the first still comes up as one of the best films i'v seen. The scene in the theatre at the end has the best scene of the film.
