This one stands alone, slightly better than 3

Rating: Null/10 (4 March 2000)

Even though Scream 2 doesn't propel itself to movie slashing greatest, I do think it achieves the effect of a worthy sequel. There is plenty of killing and plenty of laughs. The score to Scream 2 is absolutely brilliant, and the music used when Dewey appears at the beginning of the movie is ear catching. The thrills are there, but of course suffering from the all too predictable outcomes. The ending in the first was pulled of in fashion, but 2 incorporates too many guns and not enough knives. Where has the good old slashing gone! The characters are seemingly better developed, and the plot somewhat makes sense. A worthy installment in the series that makes you laugh, and makes you scream...most of the time.
