An Even Better "Scream"

Rating: Null/10 (30 July 1999)

"Scream 2" is a hip, funny, and scary sequel to a movie that made big bucks and got good critical reception because it was about teenagers in a horror movie who knew they were in a horror movie.
Now, in "Scream 2," those surviving characters have gone off to college, and have seen a movie called "Stab" about their terrifying, tragic days back at home. Unfortunately for college student Sidney Prescott (Neve Campbell), more gruesome killings have been committed and the threatening phone calls have started yet again.
Which did I like more? Well, I personally liked the comedy element over the horror, so I'd say that "Scream 2: The Sequel" is better than "Scream" in my opinion. Once again, writer Kevin Williamson and director Wes Craven have created a neat showcase for a couple of kids that know all the angles of the horror movie sequel they find themselves in. Rated R. 116 minutes. 9 out of 10.
