This movie was an excellent requel to the original!
• New cast was great! The twins were underused but funny and Mindy’s monologue about requels was hilarious! I hope they are back for the sequel.
• Jenna Ortega was the standout from the start with her elevated horror and her screaming “fuck” at the caller. She’s a scream queen in the making!
• The kills in the movie were so good and brutal!
• Judy and Wes deaths were greatly executed. The fakeouts for the Wes kill were intense and capped off with my favourite kill of the movie!
• The original cast were kinda underused but well-placed in the story. Dewey dying after surviving so much shit over the last 4 made me sad.
• The reveals were kinda predictable but the ending still works with the commentary on toxic fandom.
• I honestly thought there will be 3 killers this time. I went with Amber and the twins because I thought they wouldn’t try to do the boyfriend twist again.
Another great entry to the Scream series! The movie had some really good jokes in it and the kills were well done. The directors really understood what made Scream great and did their own thing while respecting the series. If there’s a sequel, they have to be back!
