A Good Sequel For Once...

Rating: 9/10 (16 November 1998)

Whilst Scream 2 is not nearly as ground breaking as its predecessor, it is still a good movie. It is definitely not a horror flick, but then neither was its prequel, so if you get this in order to be scared out of your mind, then you will be disappointed. However, if what you expect is an entertaining film with a few shocks and its fair share of laughs, then you will enjoy Scream 2. The body count is high (with several old favourites going under the knife), the acting is good, the humour is there, and the end is as surprisingly superb as ever. An essential rental at least.
