Review of Scream 4 (2011) by Movieguybrian — 14 Apr 2011
The series that refuses to die. Most horror movies have been going down hill for years so I'm glad they took another stab at resurrecting the SCREAM franchise - why not?! Big stars, decent twists and lots of blood will almost always equate to big box office bucks and SCREAM 4 adequately mocks and embraces the horror genre all at the same time.
It's a little cheesy and too self-referential for it's own good (which is the idea; although I'm not sure they intended to be as over-the-top as it is) - but it mostly knows how to maintain the suspense, occasionally entertain and, heaven forbid, be a watchable movie.
It won't bring back much life to a dilapidated genre - but it works. If you're a fan of the series carve out a little time this weekend - you won't be disappointed.
