this should've been the last

Rating: 8/10 (21 December 2000)

After the huge success with the best horror of all time, Scream, Wes Craven comes back with the sequel: Scream 2. Unlike most of the sequels, this one does not suck. Actually it's a very good movie. But not as good as the original. 2 years after the events in the first film, the terror starts again for Sidney. A killer copycats the murders from Woodsboro, exactly in the week of the premiere of Stab, movie made after the events in the first part.
Scream 2 does a very good job with the story and the action scenes: very well done and some of them very tensed. Still the phone-terror used in the first part is not that developed and scary. Except for this element, Wes keeps everything that goes well in the original. Including the very clever dialogue that worked so good in Scream.
After a surprising success (nobody expected Scream 2 to be a good movie, after the fabulous first part), Wes Craven should've stopped while he was on top. But he didn't. He chose more money in stead of being the undisputed God of horror films. And so Scream 3 was born: much much weaker and stupider than the first 2.
Scream 2 was very good and if you're a fan of horrors go watch it. You'll like it. Vote: 8 out of 10.
Oh, one more thing. "What's your favourite scary movie?" "Showgirls. Absulutely terrifying"
