Review
It's been two years since a pair of psycho serial killers terrorised the small town of Woodsboro, the events have been immortalised in new horror film "Stab", and terminally unlucky teen-scream-queen Sidney (Neve Campbell) has taken up film studies, natch, at college. But during a premiere of the movie at Sidney's local cinema (in an opening sequence which almost rivals the original) a member of the audience meets a gruesomely untimely end, heralding another couple of hours of murder and mayhem... it seems someone's decided to make a follow-up. "Scream 2" cleverly handles the "crap sequel" problem by playing on the fact mercilessly, even including a class discussion on the subject, and if Campbell seems remarkably well-balanced for one who's been so traumatised, rest assured, she won't be by the end! It goes without saying that this isn't as good as the original, but it gives it a damn good run for its money.
