1997 Wes Craven 120 MIN

Two years after the Woodsboro murders, Sidney Prescott acclimates to college life while someone donning the Ghostface costume begins a new string of killings.

HORROR CENTRALITY
82 /100

Scream 2 is built as a teen slasher horror film: the primary intent is fear, suspense, and horror imagery surrounding the killer Ghostface. Its meta-awareness and mystery subplot coexist, but removing horror would fundamentally change the intended viewing experience.
