Scream 2 lives up to the original and delivers just what we want. The blood spills everywhere, the question of who it is remains intact yet again. (You won't guess who it is) Dewey is trying to be Mr. Cool now, rather than some Keystone Cop, and now he wants some Gale Weathers (Courtney Cox)! Sydney is really to fight again, and she gets the chance. Gale's new cameraman is a black dude who knows that brothers never survive so he books it. Cotton, the man Sydney accused of killing her mother, pops up. He wants to get his innocence spread around with a TV special. And then there's good ol' Ghostface, with his mean calls and enlongated mask. Good times. Once again, a blonde with noting important to the plot dies.

So there you are, another romp in slasher tribute and lotsa blood. Just as good as the first and crying for attention. Get this one too.

Well...let's see. A lesbian couple have engine trouble and end up being stalked by a crazy retard named Junior (well...I guess he's got a real name, ah whatever). There's plenty bad and a bit good about this movie.

What sucks:

1) Slow pace. We have a bit too much of this scene where one girl's alone and her car's shaking. It's supposed to be suspenseful, and it does make ya wonder. But then it loses its monentum by going on too long.

2) Apparently, they're supposed to be in Europe since the money is Euros, and they seem to have some kind of accent. But the gas station workers are clearly American. WTF?! And the girls go in and out of their accents. And the car ain't European, the steering wheel's on the right side. WHERE ARE THEY?!?! 3) Junior's daddy's acting wanes in some spots. He goes a bit over the top.

4) Junior doesn't look quite as inhuman as the cover suggests.

5) It's from 2002, but the quality seems aged, like 80s or something. I guess that's not really bad, but it suggests cheap budget.

6) Ending kinda sucks.

What rocks: 1) Cool setting. Plenty of outta the way areas with abandoned buildings in the background. Def. adds to it.

2) Junior's weapon of choice is this cool blade. Some kidna scythe.

3) Once the girl gets taken to Junior's humble abode, things get a little more interesting. It's all crazy and disturbing and crap.

It's alright for some mediocre horror. If ya like slashers, it'll give ya some fun. But it ain't no classic.

Yep It's true what they say. This movie is bad. But we love it anyway.

I was a bit disappointed because I was hoping for a lotta bad special effects and maybe some props falling in the background. Granted, the hubcap UFOs with strings are awesome, but where's the plywood props falling over? Ah well.

Bela Lugosi is pops up as the Old Man, but for the most part, the young chiropractor plays the character. Vampira has no real purpose in the film, except for us to ponder how she can breathe with that girdle. Tor Johnson as the Undead Officer Clay is the best part. That look on his face...timeless.

What really sucks is the acting...so...bad. Some parts are good, but some lines are terrible. "It was a small town, but a town nonetheless. A town full of people. People who died." And try not to laugh when Eros says "You're stupid! Stupid! Stupid!" and gets punched.

So for a sucky good time, Plan 9 delivers. And remember, future events such as these will affect you in the future.
