Sisters Tara
[Jenna Ortega from Insidious: Chapter 2
(2013)] and Sam (Melissa Barrera) are terrorized by a new serial killer in the
ghostface mask, but besides the ‘New killer, new rules’ tagline, the murders
always go back to the original, and the legendary trio of Sidney Prescott (Neve
Campbell), Gale Weathers (Courteney Cox), and Dewey Riley (David Arquette),
come back to reveal the identity of the new slasher and off him as well.
Dedicated to
late Wes Craven, this fifth film in the 1990s franchise that gave a kiss of life
to horror, is directed by Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett, and is both
horrifying and fun. Also, at almost 2 hours long it has all the time in the
world to pay tribute to the film series’ legacy and bring back several key
members of the cast (in the series meta trademark manner, of course). Made on a
$24 million budget, this went on to gross a massive $135 million, so you should
be sure there’s more coming from where this came from.

Scream VI (2023)
As the survivors
of the previous film leave the series favorite location of Woodsboro and
relocate to New York, where ‘new rules’ apply (as per the tagline, again), they
are hunted by a new Ghostface, who’s the most nasty and violent we’ve ever seen
in this franchise, and will stop at nothing in his way, butchering people with
a variety of methods and utilized weapons of choice.
Directed by Matt
Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett, this is the best sequel to the classic
1990s horror hit we’ve seen in ages and manages to perfectly aim its brutality
to its advantage and it perfectly echoes the current crime climate of New York
that is not that far away from echoing the chaotic days of the 1970s and 1980s.
It is absolutely a slasher when it comes to its aesthetics, but plot-wise I
would dare to say that it is a giallo. Returning stars Jenna Ortega and
Courtney Cox are brilliant too. Made on a $35 million budget, it was loved by
critics and audiences alike, and it went on to gross $168.8 million, so there
is probably more where this came from.
