Summary: Wonderul! Amazing!! Marvelous!!!
Review: It just doesn't get any better than this! After Safely planting the revival of the horro genre with Scream, Williamson and Craven take the liberty to continue this wonderful saga. Scream 2 is suspenseful because you don't find out who the killer is until the killer reveals that he/she isn't who he/she say they are. You have no way of knowing! That is what makes this film. More blood, as it is put by Randy Meeks, but that is only to be expected by a horror sequel. The thing about this movie is how there is an actual event, and then a movie, it says that no matter what, the movie, is always off in someway or another.

Someone has taken their love of sequels one step too far...

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: It's cool but not perfect.
Review: In my opinion scream one is better that scream two because it has a better story line that the sequel.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Not a horror movie
Review: Just another slasher flick attempting to be hip. It will probably appeal the most to people who think that talentless 'hotties' from 'Party of Five' or '90210' can act.

This is NOT a horror movie. Horror movies have the elements of suspense and the supernatural. Watch movies with Vincent Price or Christopher Lee if you want to see horror movies. Scream2 is devoid of suspense or acting talent.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Terrific and horrific film!!!!
Review: SCREAM 2 is truly a terrifyingly clever and gory movie that will scare the pants off of you! After two teenagers are mysteriously and brutally murdered, a college campus is tossed into chaos as the killer again and again strikes. The murderer's prime victim...Sidney Prescott, who is now attending Windsor College, trying to forget the events that nearly destroyed her life. As Sidney frantically tries to elude the new killer, the suspense builds and builds, until everything comes crashing down with an ending you'll never forget. Starring Neve Campbell ("Party of Five"), David Arquette, Courteney Cox ("Friends"), and Sarah Michelle Gellar ("Buffy"), SCREAM 2 delivers non-stop chills, becoming one of the best ever horror movies.

Summary: Okay
Review: As far as sequels go, this movie was okay, but it was not nearly as good as the original. Hollywood should stop making sequels and give audiences what they hunger for, more originals.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Better than the first!
Review: The DVD transfer is excellent. However, the stuff on the DVD itself isn't that great. Sure, there's the french track and theatre trailer, but it doesn't have anything to write home about, like a making of, featurette, or anything that a normal DVD would offer.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The super story contiues
Review: Well, I just think this movie is no more bad than Scream. It's as good as the first Scream Film. I just can say that everyone should see this movie. But I woul catorate (?) it with R-13.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Scream 2 tries to hard
Review: Scream 2 was a big let down from the surprise instant classic Scream. There were many reasons why - 1st of all Kevin Williamson since Scream has been writing so many movie scripts along with a hit TV series, he hardly has the chance to put any quality in them. I've even heard that he's getting help from another writer for Scream 3 because he has too many scripts to write. If he took his time and waited a few years this could of been a good sequal. Another flaw is that this movie should of made fun of sequels more than it did in it's one college discussion and coffe house scene. That was a big thing about the original, having the characters make fun of the genre they're actually in - which was unique. Also unlike the 1st one where every killing had a motive - there is none here, besides a suggestion of a copycat killer who kills by names of the victims in the original, which the idea is mentioned and then seems to be forgotten through the movie. The killer's motive to kill Sidney is so played out and the actor they got to play seemed ridiculous for the part. The death scenes went to fast and had no real suspense, unlike the nail biting introduction in the original. The end was disappointing.The whole movie tries to hard and wants to rake in money and it loses all the quality of the original. Even the soundtrack tries to hard with big name bands - Sugar Ray, Dave Matthews, Master P., Collective Soul, Tonic, etc. The original's soundtrack was so good because it had talented bands that were hardly known and I actually enjoy that soundtrack better. The movie tried to be bigger than it was. Scream was suppose to be a small little fun movie and wound up being good. They should of tried that for the sequel. Also it was totally unbelievable how all the actors from the original meet up in one scene, they should of gradully brought in each. And what was with that background music, it did not help at all. However I did like the whole Stab idea, and two scenes where actually really good, the sound room scene and the car scene. If your looking for a good recent horror movie and you liked the original Scream, I suggest The Faculty

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: just as good as the original
Review: for once a sequel to a horror movie is as good as the oringinal once again you are in the dark as to who the killer is the movie is well written and well acted
