Summary: The Scream film....
Review: Scream reinveted the horror genre which was dead for nearly a decade. Then a bunch of other horror movies that tried to copy it was released like: Urban Legend, I Know What You Did Last Summer, Valentine, and more. But the Scream trilogy remains the best and top dog. Scream was a terrific film and Scream 2 was not, but Scream 3 was the best. Scream 2 dissapointed audiences with nothing but just another horror film, but Scream 3 corrected that and brought the sereis to an end. Scream 3 was

funnyer and completely different from the first two, but Scream the orignal film reamined the scariest. Dimension Home Video did a excellent job in releasing this edition to Dvd. Scream 2 only included a theatrical trailer, which was all. This film is worth owning and I would buy it.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Good not great third entry in series
Review: I liked Scream 3, but found it somewhat overlong and uninvolving. The revelations at the end, left me cold. Neve Campbell is back, but emotionally scarred by the events of the first two films. She has gone into seclusion. The movie events in this film were pretty weak, as was the unending saga of Courtney and Dooley (he is not likeable to me). There are good chase scenes however, and some laughs. Weiner Dog from Welcome to the dollhouse makes a brief appearance.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Clever Finish to a Perfect Trilogy
Review: Perfect ending for the Scream Trilogy. Keeps you on the edge of your seat throughout the movie. If you like the first to you'll love this.I gurantee this movie will never be on clearancebecause it shouldn't be. Way under priced. It is horrifingly scary yet hilarious at the same time. It is full of what you want. Believe me this is a great movie!

Summary: Worth Screaming about
Review: Poor Sidney has now changed her name to Lara and is working for a woman's crisis center. Meanwhile Hollywood are making a new Stab movie, Stab 3: Return To Woodsburrow. After a murder the police hire Gale Weathers to check out the film to see if there are any suspects. There she meets Dewy who is the technical adviser. It doesn't take them long to realise that the killer is killing the cast in the order they die in the movie, the only snag being there were three scripts made to keep the ending off the internet. The body count (along with the tension) rises and the killer leaves pictures of Sidney's mother after each killing. Scream 3 is the final instalment of the Scream trilogy. The makers are probably going to make a forth one. If this is the last ending it's a brilliant way to end it. the killer has now changed his routine, which is so good that the audience won't even see him coming. A video tape of Randy Meeks is shown that explains the rules of a movie trilogy. 1. Anyone can die, even the main character. 2. The killer will always be super human, meaning tougher to kill. 3. Something from the past will come back, meaning the past is not at rest. This one has the biggest body count of the three films and possibly the most humour. The film is also full of expendable new comers, like Jenny McCarthy, Parker Posey. It also has some cool cameos, like Jay and Silent Bob (Clerks, Mallrats, Chasing Amy and Dogma), who were created by Kevin Smith, and Carrie Fisher from Star Wars. This one lacks the irony and the in jokes of the first two movies and has half the amount of film references. But it has enough suspence and laughs to make up for that. The direction by Wes Craven is probably his best to date. In the fun final set (in a big mansion full of secret passages), he throws some false alarms and cool camera shoots so we never know where 'Ghostface' is going to turn up next. The creator of the first two Scream movies (Kevin Williamson) didn't get a chance to do this one so Elgar Kruger has taken over and has givin the movie some originality and great twist that kind of changes the first movie. In the end I'd have to say that part three is the best yet.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: THE PERFECT 'SCREAM'!
Review: When I sat down to watch the first 'Scream' and began the scene when Casey Becker (Drew Barrymore), I relized that it was not enough for a REALLY good horror film. Then, when I sat down to watch 'Scream 3' (I skipped 'Scream 2'), I noticed that THIS was the most important 'Scream' of all. It revealed the main killer which was ************ (If you haven't seen it) and it explained why and how ************ killed his victoms. So I would get SCREAM 3 if you want a good thriller!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: An Ending Worth The Trip
Review: WARNING! SPOILERS AHEAD! DON'T READ UNLESS YOU'VE SEEN THE FILM!

It's not Hitchcock. It's not as good as the first two. The finale of the "Scream" movies is still as good as it could possibly be. What can you expect from a script that was being re-written everyday? I expected much less and got much more. The great thing with this "final chapter to the trilogy" is that it doesn't seem like a sequel. Yeah, it's tired, but it stands on its own more than the other two films. It's as if "Scream" and "Scream 2" were horror movies and now "Scream 3" is a suspence movie. The sad thing about it is two major flaws: First, the killer gets lucky by having his victims run into the very room he's in, or the killer disappearing after being shot and someone comes in causing you to think they're the killer. Things just worked out too unrealisticly. Second, the killer fakes his death to throw off the audience watching, but why does he do it story wise? Ah, you see.

It is still a great mystery and a great acting job on Neve Campbell's part. Gale Weathers lost her nerve and is less bitchy this time, which is sad as well. But the film, over all, is as good as can be expected.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: not original, not scary, but still GOOD!
Review: Ok,... I do NOT think this movie is scary,(it is suspensful, but not scary), and I do NOT think it is as good as 'Scream'-the 1996 thriller that gave the Box-Office a '90s horror shake- , but in some ways it is better. I enjoyed the idea of 'Stab 3' and of Sidney hiding out in the hills of Los Angeles, but it just doesn't have that wonderful, creepy, jump-to-the-edge-of-your-seat fun that 'Scream' was totally filled to the brim with! Only see 'Scream 3' if you have seen the first two (1996 & 1997), or else you will not have one CLUE WHAT IS GOING ON! I also thought that it was kind of sad that the cameos in this film,(Jenny McCarthy, Parker Posey etc.) - are more exciting than the lead roles! ( Although Neve Campbell, Courteney Cox Arquette and David Arquette are excellent and experienced actors). And, I just wish that it was MORE SCARY! I WANT IT TO BE MORE SCARY! So, see 'Scream 3' today because over all it was a great '90s horror flick, but don't forget the original 'Scream' (the best, too). Starring: Neve Campbell, David Arquette, Courteney Cox Arquette, -and featuring Parker Posey and Jenny McCarthy. Check out my other reviews for : 'Scream', 'National Lampoon's Vacation', 'Finding Forrester', 'Scream 2','Con Air', 'The Family Man', 'Father of the Bride', 'Vegas Vacation', 'Romy and Michelle's Highschool Reunion', and much much more!

Summary: Scary? I don't think so.
Review: After seeing the first two Scream movies, both of which were okay, not too scary but scary enough to make you jump, I thought this one would be like that also. My friend and I rented this and spent the entire time cracking up. This movie was horrible! There is not a scary part in this entire movie, I guarantee you'll laugh more than jump. Stupid!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A great series with a dissapointing end
Review: The first two "Scream" movies are two of my favorite movies of all time. The writing was clever and even though "Scream 2" followed all the cliches, didn't matter because that was the point. "Scream 3," however... I'm almost ashamed to admit how much I like it. Throughout most of the movie, the script is weak and unimaginative and the acting is second-rate. But I can't help but enjoy it. Bringing on Parker Posey, Jenny McCarthy, and the cameo from Carrie Fisher instantly made the movie better, but the best part about it was Wes Craven's always great direction. The first two were great, but you have to give credit to the third one, still being entertaining while itself barely rising above the sub-horror movie genre which it mocks.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A great hip and scary movie
Review: This is a hip scarey movie that keeps you hooked from start to finish. It starts out with Cotten driving home on a crowded freeway.the killer threataning his girlfriend he rushes home to find. Well I guess you should figure it out for yourself. the movie is then trailed to a set where they are making Stab3 Return To Woodsburrow. The movie is a great truth in how cinema vilence affects the world around us as well as an edge of your seat thriller. The exciting climax reavels a shocking killer that will leave you wondering what can possibley happen that we havnt seen already? But Wes Craven can never stop making more screams come from the already terrified watcher. A truely brillant film from a truely brillant director.
