Good Morning Lovelies, 

Scream is my favourite horror film of all time. I studied it at school. Can quote it openly. Will watch anything to do with it, including the very bad TV series and binge all the films in one go. Therefore, when I heard the news of another new feature being released, I couldn’t have been happier. Now out on DVD, Blu-Ray and digitally, I am very glad to say that it is as brilliant as the original. 

Stripping everything back, even from the return of Scream last year, there is nothing lacklustre about this feature. In fact, it is proof that sequels still work in an incredible way. Ghostface is back being ghastly again, but in an epic way that has all the original horror listings, as well as a whole host of new ones.

Screaming from the top of their lungs is high on the list in this feature. Not just from the characters, but audiences members too. The horror is just as good. The rules have been rewritten and work for modern audiences. The dialogue is perfectly portrayed and delivered in every way that Scream fans will want. 

Emotions are continuously tested too and hearts are set a pacing. All qualities audiences want in a sequel to a franchise that is well loved by many. 

The film fits in with the series fantastically and Craven’s touch is still present, even with him not around. Since it first began, over 25-years-ago, the series has had its ups and downs, but this is a huge up for it. Seeing a reunion of epic proportions, brought in with a new cast and crew, has pumped new life into the world of horror. Something other franchises should work on doing. Let’s hope that this isn’t the end of the new beginning.
