Whats your favorite scary movie? Again

Rating: 5/10 (16 April 2011)

It still brings out the generic slasher flick elements in a taunting manner and sort of makes a joke out of them. Or at least makes references to those horror movies. Which I found to be one of the key factors of why the "Scream" franchise to be popular. At least it was the factor that I enjoyed in the first "Scream" movie with it's horror movie rules and such. And was one of the reason why it stood out from being just another generic slasher flick. However this time it's less clever from the previous movie, not that the previous "Scream" was all that clever and this time it's way more silly. Like one of the quote from this movie "sequels suck" "they are inferior films" I wouldn't say this movie sucked, but it's inferior to the first "Scream". But I really liked how this makes references to the first "Scream" movie, it's the most intriguing part of this movie. And although it's inferior, it's still a satisfying sequel. There is more body counts this time around, but that doesn't necessarily a good thing for slasher flicks all the time. This film although puts more emphasis on who's the killer aspect, but it just isn't that engaging for the audience. What I found really absurd about this movie is how, although the scenarios for the killer is coincidental it always goes according to the way the killer wants it to. Decent sequel but just wasn't as sharp as the first "Scream". I am going to give this movie a 5.6 because the movie becomes just way too stupid to the point it becomes irritating near the end.
5.6/10
