Scream 7

It's interesting that this movie came out the same year as the Scary Movie. Both of them are tail ends of tired franchises, but whereas Scary Movie is rambling and incoherent, this movie at least tries to build on its formula, try a few new twists, and make something of it.

And, to some extent the hate is a bit justified, it's not much better than Scream 3, but it's not as bad as Scream VI which, let's be honest, was yet another political lecture pretending to be entertainment.…

By far the worst in the series and shockingly lazy, though I guess some of the kills were at least okay. But everything else was trash, I get that Neve Campbell and Courtney Cox (both served as executive producers) were there for the paycheck, and that's fine but you can see it on screen.…
