Scre4m

Eleven years after Scre3m film makers Wes Craven and Kevin Williamson have returned with the unexpected fourth installment of the Scream franchise. Returning to play their now iconic characters are Neve Campbell, Courtney Cox-Arquette, and David Arquette. Joining the cast are Kristin Bell (Chloe), Emma Roberts (Syd's cousin Jill) Rory Culkin (Charlie), and Erik Knudson (Robbie).

The basic synopsis of Scre4m is at first very simple. Sydney Prescott, now a decade removed from the horror that she survived three times, has returned to Woodsboro on the final stop on her book tour. While there she has the opportunity to reconnect with the now Sheriff Dewey and his wife Gale. And then the phone calls, texts, and killing begins. It grows from there. The main characters are pulled in directions they haven't been before and are wonderfully intertwined with the new cast.

Let me say right now, despite what some have thought, this is not the same thing over again. It really is a new decade with new rules. It's not really following the formula established by prior Scream films. It does parody this past decade's onslaught of horror remakes. It does have characters based on the original Scream but it is different. And you absolutely have to know the first three movies or you be lost right at the beginning. It was awesome and not what I was expecting.

I'm having a hard time trying to figure out what to say that won't give anything away. We never get into spoilers at the AJ MR. Let me just say that Sre4m should be very well accepted by the Scream Community. It adds to the Scream mythology without messing up anything that has gone before. And it was really good.........................GO NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
