With evidence planted in the back of her rental,Sidney is prevented to leave town and the return of ghostface puts her and the whole town in danger.
What's Good About the Movie:
A surprising plot twist at the end that we didn't see coming. This would pretty much leave you with your mouth ajar, I know it had that effect on me. This for me was the best thing about the whole film.
There were some fairly good slasher scenes and scenes to make you probably cringe and even jump a bit.
What's Bad about the Movie:
Not to give away the plot of the movie but some scenes just didn't make sense and it felt like the characters were extremely foolish which led to their demise. Ghostface just had to show up and the victims pretty much did the job for him.
Overall Grade: D,despite having a plot twist that took me by surprise,the overall movie was disappointing compared to the other movies in the Sequel.
I'm still on the fence Gayte. I've read your review and V's review. It sounds like I could like it for what it is, but then I get to thinking, I may just want to remember the series as it is. I'm guessing that I'll just wait a while and see when we can stream it on Netflix. Thanks for the review!
