Rua do Medo: Rainha do Baile

Will start off by saying this movie tried to totally capture the 80's vibe,unfortunately that's where the rest fails.

Was it clichéd? Yes! From storyline,etc. But is anything original anymore,so you can almost overlook that issue.

No spoilers,regarding the killings: Was anyone shocked on who's responsible & why? It wasn't an oh my gosh thing,even with the ending twists unfortunately.

The cinematography although do get it was a whole nostalgic feel of that era,just came off instead as poor lighting & film quality.

Majority of actors chosen to their acting was ok,but nothing that you will remember once credits roll.

Music decisions was good,but again it was carrying that 80's theme.

The horror element during specific scenes came off cheap,almost what you'd expect by amateurs or film students.. Unless that was the point? Trying to be like 80's horror.

If they were going for that campy to B-Rated style,it wasn't accomplished even by those standards-Was like Hallmark,AMC or SyFy tried a collaborative project & failed.

Not something will rewatch again,but a popcorn flick to pass your time once.

I almost never leave reviews, but I had to leave one this time. This movie was not good. I loved the original fear Street movies (especially 1978) and I love campy slasher movies. So in light of this I was looking forward to this next fear street installment but I was left severely disappointed The story line lacked any depth, suspense, or even surprise. There was no build up no creepy someones watching me or unexplained sound in the dark of night and the whole thing was rushed 10 minutes into the movie their reference a plot device meant to explain main characters social status I think everyone in it did a great job with the script they were given but ultimately Netflix missed the mark by MILES !!!!

I've watched all the fear street trilogy and that had better kills and better characters and better villains... this was super rushed and the kills were so boring and the trailer gave away who the killer was so this was disappointing! Could have made it more darker and bloody and put more time in this movie and made it more like prom night (1980) this was not scary at all and nothing was interesting. My favorite character was Megan because she was an interesting character but everyone else was just trash. It was rushed and there should have been a plot twist because the trailer showed to much of the scenes and should have teased us more.

Tbh, the film isn't that bad, but the lead is weak and the twists are not surprising. The killing were gruesome but some felt clunky. But again, I think the lead, Lori Granger, played well by India Fowler, was a weak scream queen. It's all the writing problem, she is literally so blagh and boring to the core - I can't believe no one thought to rewrite her bland narration.

I grew up with Neve Campbell in Scream, so any slasher lead girl will always be compared to her. Biased at it is, I felt the newer slasher films always fumbled upon writing a good lead girl. Especially here, Lori, has no depth nor sass - she is just too passive for my liking. Give me a Scream Queen who can kick ass, man. Also, the twist and turns were kind of predictable - a poor entry to the already solid Fear Street trilogy in my opinion.

The only thing I somewhat enjoyed about this movie was its attempt at 80s-style cinematography. It had that nostalgic glow, but it's not even close to the immersive atmosphere you get in shows like Stranger Things or Euphoria. That alone barely earns it 2 stars. The rest? Honestly, a disaster. The acting is flat, unconvincing, and often cringeworthy. The dialogue is so poorly written it feels like it was thrown together in a rush without any thought. It lacks rhythm, wit, or even basic realism. The pacing drags, scenes feel repetitive, and it completely fails to build suspense or emotional depth. As someone else said, you really do have to turn off your brain to get through this. It's like a cheap, uninspired knockoff of Scream, but without the cleverness or thrills. Just another cookie-cutter slasher flick pretending to be retro-cool while delivering nothing new or worth remembering. A missed opportunity, plain and simple.
