About
If you enjoy self-aware slasher thrills with plenty of horror references, Scream should fit the mood; Not for you if you want fresh originality over “requel” familiarity, or prefer lighter, less gory teen horror like Fear Street or Freaky.
Pros: meta horror fun; tense suspense; graphic kills | Cons: predictable twists; uneven character depth; divisive ending
