Highly glossy, highly trashy

Rating: 2/10 (25 September 1999)

Scream 2 is a poor movie, honestly!. I must admit I wasnt a big fan of the first one, and I didnt expect too much of the second. You would think that all the "SMART" pretty young things, who spout off all the way through the film their knowledge of horror movies, would simply leave town for couple of weeks until the murderer was captured. The Killer in the Scream series must be the biggest joke going, for all the amazing things he does like chasing down police cars and killing two armed cops, you would think that he would be able to chase someone through a house without clumsily tripping up over everything and anything. Scary, my arse. I spent the best part of eight years in the states, and I never met anyone as irritating and as annoying there as the college kids in this movie, I was practically shouting for the killer as he bumped off this annoying lot.
Here are are few questions that have been floating around my mind since subjecting myself to Scream 2:
Is Dewey related to Michael Myers? You can stab him 1500 times and he still survives at the end.
Why does the killer always turn into some third-rate comedian when unmasked? and then really emphasise the word "F**k" when speaking.
Why does Wes Craven never have a likeable character in any of his movies?
Is there any overweight or normal looking people at Sydney's College?
WHAT the hell was that terrible, terrible music all about that came on whenever Dewey & Gale were in the same scene.
And finally...... Why does everyone hero worship Kevin Williamson and why is his name above anyone elses on the movie posters?. The best thing he ever wrote was the first season of Dawson's Creek (I wont take that away from him).
Scream 3, No Thank you Messrs. Craven & Williamson
