Summary: An entertaining "finish" to a pretty good series.
Review: The third time around, The Ghostface Killer is slashing down the cast of Stab 3. This third entry remains surprisingly clever at times, despite not featuring a single genuine scare. The characters have become endearing (mainly Arquette and Neve Campbell), Parker Posey's performance is a riot, and there are several very funny moments. There's enough high-energy slasher action to make this an overall satisfying entry into the series. Like the previous sequel, the finale is too silly (Though the build-up and payoff is still better executed).
*** 1/2 out of *****

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: You are the weakest Scream. Goodbye!
Review: If Scream 3 ends the highly successful horror trilogy on a low note, we should remember that the first two installments were classics of the genre. The final installment shows that even the cleverest ideas run out of steam eventually.

As always, several thing are going on at once. Cotton Weary [Liev Schreiber], exonerated as the killer in a past episode, has become a hot syndicated TV talk show host. Driving home in Los Angeles one night, he gets a phone call from the real killer. He races home to save his girlfriend. Sidney Prescott [Neve Campbell] has vanished to a remote area of northern California where, safely locked away in a secure ranch, she works as an over-the-phone crisis counselor. Naturally, this is one mad man she can't escape. In Hollywood, a studio is making Stab 3, a movie about the killings covered in Scream and Scream 3. Dewey [David Arquette] is technical advisor on the picture. Gale Weathers [Courtney Cox Arquette] is a highly paid and sensationalistic TV journalist. When Cotton has a fatal encounter while trying to save his girlfriend, Gale is called in by the LAPD as a consultant. That's how she runs into Dewey on the movie set. After a couple of the cast members are done in, the pair realizes that the serial killer is working in the order in which the characters the actors are playing were killed.

The problem with the picture is that director Wes Craven really has run out of ideas. It is almost as if he simply filled a prior commitment. The satire and the humor that made the first two movies so good is almost absent here, which makes this one basically a competent but ordinary horror movie. There are some spooky scenes, such as one in which Sidney is chased by the killer through the Stab 3 set, which is an exact replica of her own house where much of the original movies took place.

The actors give good performances, especially Neve Campbell and Courtney Cox Arquette, although they, too, have an air of doing this movie because their contracts said they would.

As a vehicle for horror fans, Scream 3 is as diverting and entertaining as most such pictures. The problem comes in comparing it to its predecessors.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: SCREAM
Review: Scream in my opinion is one of the most original horror movies of our time. It's cleverness and its edge of your seet moments was what made scream get all its fans. Scream one, two, and three in essence are one movie since they are all part of a trilogy that connects them. It's humor, which some did not catch, involved making fun of itself and of most other horror movies. The way horror movies repeat themself. The way they all have that good looking girl that of course as we all know will die and then does. Then the main character of the movie of course no matter how many times attacked can't die and won't die. Then the rules of a horror movie which are about a exact science. While poking fun at itself, deriving original freaky ideas, and making your mind twist over who that killer is, scream is a fun scary movie that will take you for the ride of your life.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Kool Movie ... Not the stupidest Scream movie!
Review: Everybody always said that this was the stupidest Scream movie of them all. I don't think so! Personally, I think that the second one was the stupidest one and that the first one was a classic. that was my favorite one. i think maybe because Skeet Ulrich (Billy Loomis) was in it. It had a good plot and actors and actresses. I really don't think that this movie should of been rated r.. i guess it's because of the stabbing and swearing but i don't think that swearing is that bad so.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This is one of my favorite hor. movies all time.
Review: Scream: The killer gutted Casey's (Drew Barrymore) boyfriend Steve. If you saw halloween or friday the 13th your love this film. Features: Neve Campbell, Courntney Cox, David Arquatte, Jamie Kennedy, Rose McGrowen, Drew Barrymore, Skeet Ulrich, and more.
Scream 2: You're need to see scream for this. Like in a hour in the movie, Dwight (Dewey, David) and Gale (Courtney) talks about people on scream. And you even need to watch it because you won't know Billy Loomis and Stu.
Scream 3: After Randy (Kennedy) talks about a trilogy, it keeps on getting weirder and more. And again watch scream 1 & 2.

All features rated R
Includes: Deleted Scenes and alternate endings, music videos and more.

This is the trilogy you will love

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A "Scream" of a Collection!
Review: It is one thing to watch the original Scream movie (which is one of the best horror movies), but owning the entire set is even better! To describe the boxed set, I will present a summary of each Scream movie included:

Scream - The original was released in the year 1996. It is packed with suspense making this horror movie one of the best. The killer is the movie is somebody who is taking his love for horror movies way too far using tactics involving phone threats and murders. There are a group of five teenagers who suspect the killer to be somebody they know. Who could it be? To find the answer to this question, watch the movie and you'll be surprised of the killer's true identity.

Scream 2 - The killer of this movie's original counterpart is dead, but somebody is repeating the horrific actions executed by him/her. Some of the members of the group in Scream are in college and make new friends, but they end up suspecting the killer to be one of those new friends or even somebody they knew in the past. This is a sequel that beats its original.

Scream 3 - In this trilogy, one of the main characters of the other two movies hides out in isolation to avoid becoming a victim to anybody who may want to expire her through copycat methods. However, as one could see in the movie, she cannot hide very long for she is forced out of hiding when she receives a threatening call from a person who had already killed three people. Of all the Scream movies I have watched, the trilogy has to be my ultimate pick for a great horror entertainment blockbuster.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A clever and highly entertaining finale to a killer trilogy!
Review: As with most horror series, after part 2 you expect it to go down hill from then on but Scream 3 proved that whole theory wrong. This time it takes the whole Sidney/ghostface scenerio to Hollywood. With most of the cast remaining there are some new additions to the trilogy. There are some clever elements in the movie which make it more chilling and different from the 1st and 2nd movie. Flashback is used quite a lot and makes the link between this movie and the others strong - The story is on going. A great beginning and an even more shocking ending!
A clever, fun and highly entertaining finale to a killer trilogy!!

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: One hit wonder.
Review: Only the first movie is any good. Your only use for the other two films will be to try to decide which one is lousier. Just buy the DVD of the first film

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: DIE ALL READY!
Review: After Kevin Williamson dropped out of this project, I thought that there might be a glimmer of hope. Alas...no. The dialogue is laughably bad and the plot is ludicrous. The only bright spot is a surprise cameo by Jay and Silent Bob. By the end of the trilogy, Sydney has become so annoying that you are almost rooting for her to get killed. Fortunately, Courtney Cox gets more screen time in this one.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Sequal
Review: Scream 3 is a sequal to Sceam 2!
It still has all your fave stars in it
and it is still about a masked killer that stalks
a group of friends.I know it sounds the exact
same as the first two but it is filled with many surprises.
