Review of Scream 3 (2000) by Everett J — 16 Apr 2011
When this come out this was my favorite of the 3. I absolutely loved the ending as I felt it really tied the trilogy together and gave some closure to the 1st movie's ending that I felt was missing.
Going back, the movie is the worst of the 3 but has the best ending I feel. There are quite a few laughs, but overall, just a standard horror sequel that a lot of horror franchises fall into. There is one thing about the original Scream trilogy(haven't seen 4 yet, so I can't include it quite yet) that I like and really separates it from most other horror franchises.
It never strayed from the original story or characters. Take "Halloween" for example, the first 2 were about Laurie Strode. The 3 through 6 strayed completely from the original concept except for Michael Myers(well 3 didn't even have him in it).
So kudos for tieing them together, but overall not the best horror series, but not the worst either. I'd definitely say there somewhere in the middle of the pack, but I'm looking forward to number 4.
