Waiting for a third helping please....

Rating: Null/10 (13 December 1999)

I have to laugh as I view these reviews at how disenchanted every one is....
Let me lump Scream and Scream 2 into the same review: Scream's tribute to the genre that made it possible (70's and 80's slasher flicks) was CLASSIC. Not since Friday the 13th or Halloween have I had so much fun with a horror movie. I was scared in the theater, and I LOVED it. Let's use this years "The Haunting" as contrast: The Haunting took itself WAAAYYY too seriously, and it stunk. It was a big nutty turd floating away with a big budget, and it was just pure swill.
Scream 2: Yes, there were a LOT of similar points from one to two... and therein was the charm of the inside joke about making FUN OF THE HORROR SEQUEL RUN ON PROBLEM. It's known that there are going to be three Scream movies. Let's save the sequel slamming for Friday the 13th part 957. Granted, the whole IDEA behind Scream 2 is unbelievable, but it's a MOVIE. WHEN did every one become SOOOO concerned with what is probable in a MOVIE?? I want to pay my $7.50 for a ticket and be entertained, and that's what this movie, along with the first Scream did.
*******SPOILERS AHEAD****** I loved it in Scream 2 that they wanted you to "think" it was Sid's boyfriend, right down to the superficial wound he sustained when chasing the killer. Granted, the film student had nothing to do with squat, but bringing back Billy's mother was a HOOT! I'm so curious to see who the killer(s) are going to be in 3. I guess I'm stupid, because I DIDN'T guess the killers in 2. I didn't try to. I wanted to watch a movie, and have fun with it, and not try to see if I was soooo much smarter than the writers and FORGET that I was being entertained.
When 3 comes out in theaters, I'm gonna rent one and two (if I don't own them by that time) and watch those first THEN go see number 3. If you want to knock on the new horror of the 90's, go to the I know what you did last summer board....
