Scream 2 Review

Scream 2 came out in 1997 and was directed by the ever-multi-limbed Wes Craven. We have used science (and possibly the box cover) to determine that this movie fits perfectly into the "Slasher Horror" genre.

During the time we had our polls open, 386 knob-gobbling viewers just like you weighed in on Scream 2. 220 of 'em thought it was great! 166 thought it was shit. Takes all kinds.

This is a Dave and Jim's B-Movie Review. This review was written some time between 1996 and 2001. Once you've sucked the marrow from this one, you can head back to the full list to pick another review for savoring. Do it again and again.

Dave's Review

This movie was great. All of the good things from Scream were there. A surprisingly good sequel, and a whole lot of fun.

Jim's Review

The Scream movies work on two different levels. First, it's a relatively good slasher film on its own but if you know a lot about horror movies you can see how they mock the other horror movies and how they do things no other horror movie would do. Scream 2 is one of the few sequels that actually could be as good as the first one.

Jim broke it down like so: Technology: 8 Action: 0 Nudity: 0 Coolness: 9 Badguys: 8 Gore: 6 Shock: 6 Dialog: 10 Post-Nuke?: N Music: 6 Plot: 9 Length: Short Overall: 9
