Scream 4 (2011): Halloween

October 18, 2018

Sidney Prescott is back, and being the angel of death more than ever. Sidney comes back to Woodsboro for a book tour, meeting her younger cousin, Jill, and her aunt. Soon, the teens of Woodsboro are in danger and their murders are being filmed. Sydney, Gale and Dewey to figure out who the copy cat is. So this movie is part of my favorite horror franchise, debuting 11 years after the final trilogy installment. It's definitely superior to the third film, which was so convoluted and just a total mess. It's not that original, but it has some modern updates that are enjoyable. However, it definitely wasn't trying to push the envelope the way the original was. If you're going to watch the franchise this is definitely one you have to check out. This film is great for Halloween, there's some fun new twists, as well as some old favorite tropes. While there isn't any halloween imagery it's a horror movie so it's an obvious choice. Give it a watch to get yourself into to the mood for the spookiest night of the year.
