Scream 4 Review ~ Best Scream Yet

I even have to admit that I was worried about this film after the great fail that was My Soul To Take, but Wes Craven has made a great horror comedy with a ending that might blow you away.

Scream 4 plays by the rules of stab movies, as the killer kills all his victims with a knife. Is is the most creative way of killing, no, but its a real weapon and still holds up.

If your a fan of horror movies, then you are going to love all the horror reference's Scream 4 makes. It pokes fun at Saw, has some trivia and hints at some old movies with its kill scenes.

The film also has its comedic moments to when it pokes fun at the horror genre. But also takes itself seriously at the same time.

The actors are all pretty good, and its kinda cool to see Emma Roberts in a horror film like this. Along with Hayden Panettiere (who plays red riding hood in the upcoming WoodHinked movie) and Neve Campbell.

The kill scenes do a pretty good job of building up tension, but the horror factor here isn't as scary as other movies. But it still has a few on the edge seat scenes which will get you. The killers voice is a little comedic in a way, as its kinda scary but laughable at the same time.

Overall, if your a fan of horror and making fun of it, check this one out. You don't have to watch the older screams to understand this one, but it may help if you want to get the full picture. The ending does a great job with its twist.

Wes Craven should stick with directing, cause that is what he seems best at. Or maybe go back to script school.
