The Scream Franchise • Page 34

Seeing a lot of strange takes on Scream 2 and Scream (2022), two great Scream movies

 

I love Scream 2. it's a great movie and the villain reveal is a whimper. both things can be true!

 

The most unbelievable thing about Scream 2 was that it was released within a year of the OG and it's still that fucking good.

 

Picking up the blu ray later. Hoping there's some deleted scenes on it

 

I think the reveal in 2 FEELS a little meh because hey it was this minor character the whole time, but then they do the 2nd reveal and you get the reverse Jason Vorhees revenge factor.

And you know what? they both play on horror movie sequel tropes so, it works for this franchise lol

 

Wasn't everyone else dead in 2 by the time they revealed the killer? It doesn't really leave any options.

 

With Scream, all bets are off.

 

Wes does fake everyone out to make you believe Sid got played by another serial killer boyfriend. One they hint at being the killer a few times throughout the film. Him being innocent and dying because of Sid, is essentially the last motivational piece she needed to go into hiding and live the way she did in 3. (She even continues to wear his letters in that film.)

 

I'd highly recommend reading the original screenplay for Scream 2...I know it's floating around somewhere.

 

it's got some but only about 3 minutes' worth. not super exciting

 

Finally watched this. It was really good! A lot of fun, so many good references, and young actors I recognize. I was for some reason most excited about seeing Evie from The Leftovers lol

 

Also did the Leo pointing meme at the Alkaline Trio song in the movie lol. Also really liked whatever that end credits song was

 

insane to me that this song was written in the last few years. Sounds straight out of like 1999 punk/pop punk to me, right down to the mix

 

“maybe you are the killer because that cut deep” way he delivered that line was so good lol

 

Apparently that was an ad-lib, too. Incredible.

 

There's also a He Is Legend poster on the wall during the bar scene.

 

Came back to the thread to say still really digging that song. It actually reminds me of Alkaline Trio the more I listen to it. Would love to hear them cover it with the dual vocals

 

Nice.

 

You mean the Re-mequal

 

Please don’t kill Mindy

 

Glad they’re all returning. One of the twins is most definitely getting killed off.

 

If Chad doesn’t die what is even the point of this movie?

 

kirby!

 

YESSSSSSSSSS
