Scream (2022)It is incredible to thinnk that the first scream was release in 1996.
When it was first release it made alot of money.
With a "low budget" and a slew of up and coming young actors the movie made a killing at the box office.
Wes Craven was persuaded to make a second. Which from a production point of view it was a disaster.
The full script was leaked and Wes had to have the script writer at hand to rewrite the script on the fly.
The actors got their rewritten script piece meal
Special paper was used that made sure the script could not be photocopied...
The second did not gainer the critic and the viewing public and have toadd, it still made enough to have part 3 greenlit and made.
The third was much better and still the original just had that little magic that made it special.
Scream 4 (2011) was supposed to spearhead a new trilogy.... and it didnot (not enough box office)
And now, Scream 5....
They managed to get 4(?) actors from the first movie to return.
Focus is NOT on them.
New kids.
New kills.
New blood!
Seriously blood
Blood is everywhere in this movie
The kills are bloody.
Probably the bloodiest of the series.
There are some leap of faith in the storyline.
If you can accept that, you will enjoy the movie.
What amuses me is

Dylan Minnette is the Drew Barrymore in this movie. The character's name in this movie is homage to Wes Craven
If you love the movie series (not the TV series) you will like this.
Script... can be a little clunky at some parts.
Overall it is a good continuation of the movie series.
