After diminishing returns from the sequels, Scream re-quels with a vengeance, helped by some smart casting, and update to modern time and still that sly wink to the audience about what's going down. Oh, and don't worry, there's plenty of bloody kills too. It's also nice to catch up with some of the OG gang because some of us remember watching the first Scream when it came out.

Just as scary and coy as the very original while also adding some things to make it all the fresher, "Scream" 2022 (which is is technically a "Scream 5") cuts not only into its victims' bodies but their emotions as well.

“Well, maybe you're the killer. Because that cut deep.”
Scream (2022) takes the meta, “requel” approach that seems to be getting popular in modern franchise movies. For those who don’t know; “requel” basically means when a movie revisits sections from an earlier film, for example, a well-known movie franchise, but is technically not a remake. However, I feel this trend will eventually be tired out, but I feel it makes more sense with the ‘Scream’ franchise with its commentary.
So, this movie brings in the new but also brings back the old to the series. The legacy characters make a return and are well respected. Neve Campbell isn’t featured as much this time around, which means she’s not the focus of the story. Campbells and Courteney Cox
have a great team-up …

Okay so walking into the theater the snack saler was telling my party about how wonderful the movie was which was a sheer sign I was in for a good time it was one of the best movies I have seen and the scariest movie I have seen in the decade so far it's one of the best so far of the year I laughed and felt a rush of action and the scare levels extremely high which is perfect here I highly recommend you at least watch it at home but I highly recommend you see it in theaters if possible the best experience I've had at the movies since Halloween kills and that was a good time we meet new friends here and still have the good old Courtney Cox and neve camble action here as well everything was absolutely perfect to see for a scream fan like us ten
