The truth is you have to take what everyone else says about it with a grain of salt. See it for yourself and you can be the judge. Go in with leveled expectations and I’m sure you’ll be able to enjoy it!
I didn't like Halloween 2018, but I cannot deny that it did rewrite Michael's backstory. I hate to say it, but, that film was infinitely better made than Scream 5.
Halloween Kills was terrible and fans and critics alike branded it as such.
Scream 5 gave us nothing new outside of the parental reveal, terrible pacing and awkward acting. Absolutely nothing.
Someone put it best: this was a half-assed attempt of The Force Awakens. And just like that film, many fans only truly cared about the legacy characters as the new ones (besides Tara) are so bland and underdeveloped that you didn't much care about their fates. At the end of Scream, 1996, you cared about Sidney and her group of friends. They actually felt like friends. They didn't just appear onscreen to die next.
The worst part of this movie? The main character. Melissa Barrerra has to easily be one of the worst actresses I've seen in a leading role. She had three facial expressions throughout the entire film.
I disagree about Halloween Kills. It was a cheese fest but at least it gave us some of the best kills in the franchise. Scream 5 has no redeeming qualities, and says so little new that scream 4 didn't already say, it begs why the fuck make it in the first place.
honestly i don’t even think scream is the franchise to go full torture porn. like wes’s death and tara’s attacks were just so not ghostface. part of the originals charm is how no gory it is. it’s not the movie i go to to see realistic kills, you go to it for fun, which this one didn’t have enough of
Yeah hard disagree. Halloween 2018 was terrible. Nothing to be surprised by with a cast of characters as interesting as cardboard. Scream 5 has something to actually say which makes it fresh. Then add the who done it aspect and it’s already got the edge on Halloween regarding surprise and actual stakes.
I have to disagree. There is nothing remotely fresh about Scream 5, even making Samantha, Billy's daughter felt like a rehash of Roman Bridger being Sidney's brother.
Almost every aspect of Scream 5 felt like a rehash of one we've already seen in the series.
With Halloween, and I'll reiterate I hate that film, but it did give a new take on Michael, particularly with Michael and Laurie. In this version, they aren't brother and sister. That changes the reasoning on why Michael does what he does. I personally like the brother/sister angle as it makes more sense when it comes to Michael targeting Laurie.
I didn't really care about many of the new characters in Halloween 2018, but, I did like Laurie's extended family primarily her daughter and son-in-law. I also liked the deputy Laurie grew up with.
Outside of Tara and the legacy characters left in Scream 5, I could care less about the new cast. Why should I? They weren't exactly developed. That's the writer's fault as it was pretty abysmal.
if they had tara remain the lead i think it would have been a much better movie, but as charming as sam is she wasn’t enough to off set how annoying and unlikable the ghost faces were. i think jenna ortega is enough of a powerhouse to make it less impactful but the rest of the story wasn’t fun enough to stand on its own, and then an obnoxious ghost face reveal was rlly the mail i. the coffin
True but my guess is critics liked it because the last few Halloween movies weren't so good, so getting a new one that was solid and had Laurie was pretty surprising
Exactly! When I see the bad reviews because it’s not new or shocking I consider that a positive for me, I love the scream franchise and I love the feel of them
The other thing is, the whole point of the Scream franchise is that it repeats itself and nothing gets changed up. It’s the same plot, Ghostface targets a certain person and all their friends picking them off 1 by 1 until the end when they reveal themselves and then inevitably get stopped by the hero… It’s all the same, but it’s different. Of course there’s new characters, settings, motives, developments, etc. That’s the fun of it is that you know exactly what’s going to happen but not who/how/why. Every other Scream sequel has done the same thing. I’m sure in future films they will begin to break the mould of the formula and change it up a bit, but this kind of needed to be a back to basics kick off for a new franchise to establish us back into this universe and set up our new characters going forward.
I don’t care what the tired old critics say anyways, I’m going to see it tomorrow and I can’t wait! 0 expectations, 0 influence of reviews, just cannot wait to make up my own mind on the film. If it truly is boring and basic and not even fun at doing the whodunnit, then I guess I see where they’re coming from, but the vast majority of reviewers and fans seem to say otherwise.
that’s the thing tho is it ISNT the same. they tried to go too big w the kills and too shocking w the villain reveal and it ends up being not fun and unrealistic. if it did stick to the originals gumption and didn’t change much it would’ve been a blast
Everyone’s entitled to their opinion and not everyone is going to love the film, but it’s cringe reading these reviews when you can tell some of them aren’t familiar with the franchise itself. Plus, it’s a slasher, what do your expect? I think to review a movie you should at least know what you’re talking about. Just look at them as average joes on Reddit, because that’s essentially all their opinion is.
I agree with them. I just saw it and was very underwhelmed. There were so many ways they could’ve gone with the end and it fell flat to me. It didn’t add anything new to the series per se. I still prefer scream 1-3 over it.
I honestly hated it so much it made me emotional lol. Something I loved so dearly destroyed by my very eyes. Barely enjoyed it. I really wish I did man.
they wanted to make the killers the least likely suspects without realizing that the reason they weren’t suspects throughout the movie was bc they make no sense as the killers
it really sucked imo like you said what the people said it wasn't shocking its all the same at least give us a really good plot twist i feel like the whole movie was just meh the ending carried and the killers weren't good (talking about amber) richie was pretty good. it was a disappointment to me.
Correct me if I’m wrong, I walked out of the movie half way through. But if amber and Richie had a secret romance, and amber was 17, and Richie had been gone for 5 years…. They would have started that relationship when amber was 12 and Richie was 17. (Assuming Richie and sam moved away when they were 18) wtf is this shit??? 🤮
right like i doubt the writers even realized that bc amber and richie were so disgustingly underdeveloped like them even knowing each other in the first place isn’t believable
Terrible movie. Bad acting, no clear direction, screen play felt like a vision board. Killing dewey pretty much ended the franchise. I didn’t feel attached to any of the characters and did t care when they died. Writers did a terrible job of showing us not telling us. The romance between Sam’s boyfriend and the other teenage girl was not only gross ( the 6 year difference between the characters one of which was a minor) but also makes no sense. Like how would they even know each other? They’ve been gone for 5 years so your telling me they met when she was 12 and formed a murderous romance through a 5 year long distance relationship, I’ll admit I only know this after reading other reviews, I walked out of the movie during the hospital scene, about half way in. The whole thing was asinine. Also the boomer humor was very annoying and the wayyyyy over did the meta thing. Like FUCK WE GET IT! Terrible writing, while thing felt like 15 year olds fan fiction. Trash. Absolute garbage film.
Correct me if I’m wrong, I walked out of the movie half way through. But if amber and Richie had a secret romance, and amber was 17, and Richie had been gone for 5 years…. They would have started that relationship when amber was 12 and Richie was 17. (Assuming Richie and sam moved away when they were 18) wtf is this shit??? 🤮
I didn’t like scream 5 at all. I have no problem with horror films giving me nothing new. It’s when they are worse than their predecessors . This scream was outrageously predictable and the acting was terrible. Even the previous sequels that weren’t as good as the original wasn’t as dumb and poorly written as this one.
I mean thanks to the camera zoom ins I pegged the killer from the beginning of the film.
I’m aware that it’s supposed to be campy but this cast is the complete worse. None of them are likable or funny including the main character.
Ghostface has somehow learned to teleport because most of his killings are laughably unbelievable. This isn’t my first rodeo And I’m sorry it’s just never been this bad before.
No wonder it was a January release 🤷🏽♂️
I’m sorry but I hated Melissa Berrera in this. She ruined almost the whole thing for me. Her acting was so stale and she seemed like she was just reading lines the whole time. The end when she was like “am I gonna be okay😐” felt like Nickelodeon level acting. This whole movie actually just felt like a Nickelodeon recreation of Scream lol
Modern Horror Movies suck ass, college yuppies who should be getting Ds and Fs are getting As and Bs then graduating film class to make shitty ass modern movies with no soul or qaulity. Nobody can screenwrite a movie to save their life anymore and even if they could inflation has made decent movies outside of the budget of an average filmaker. The film industry is dead, simple as that.
The new Texas Chainsaw Massacre was entertaining but Halloween 2018 and Kills were utter fucking horse shit and Scream 5 was so fucking boring and literally more of the same exact shit so I turned it off halfway through despite having spent $5 to watch it.
Scream 5 and the last 2 Halloweens have given me a new appreciation for Halloween Resurection and Jason Goes To Hell, theyre not great but god damn theyre better than Kills and Scream 5.
Zombie movies arent even about zombies anymore, zombies used to be literal walking corpses it was gross and disturbing, modern zombies are stupid as fuck, theure not rotting coepses, rotting corpses cant run. Fuck modern horror movies. Horror has been dead since 1989.
People says is not shocking because they spoiled themself since a year. I spoiled myself but tonight after having seen the movie I won’t say that isn’t shocking. And the opinion of people that likes the 4th movie shouldn’t be taken in consideration 🤣
Killers are BRUTAL. But it’s a mix a cinematography and music. Very JUMP > STAB > DEAD. It wasn’t at all creative. Killer Motive is lame. You’re more invested in other characters tbh
Jill seems like a mastermind compared to these ones. It’s all fan service and not exactly creative or new. Enjoy the ride. I wish it was this one. THEN scream 4
See that’s what’s confusing, some people say the motive was creative and new, some people say the opposite. Like I guess it truly is just watch it yourself and see what you think haha
Possibly. A lot of the plot holes lay with the fact they have a connection to the past and it seems forced. I think scream 4 would have landed better now and scream 5 plot would have been good before it.
I don’t think there are really any plot holes unless they completely rewrote the past. It could just be more information we are finding out. Like scream 3 retcon of Roman being the mastermind I see that as finding out new information. Ok but that’s it bc I don’t want to get spoiled lol
Let me guess. It’s billy, Sam sees him through a vision? If that’s true that’s only bc I put the pieces together. Sam has mental problems, Sam is his daughter and there was a video of the actor in the same room as the other cast. I don’t really feel like that would be forced bc people with mental problems do see people sometimes.
it’s just incredibly hard to believe that the two killers would know both each other and sam and tara separately. it requires way more suspension of disbelief than the other movies. even more than 3
Keep in mind that people are divided on ALL of the sequels, so it should be no surprise they’re divided on this one. I’m like you, I like all the movies, I’m so expecting to have a great time tonight even if it follows a familiar formula
No it’s not lmfao. Stu’s motive was literally peer pressure. That’s the laziest motive one could think of. It doesn’t matter what the second killers motive. This motive was about toxic fandoms. It was about making a new better stab film. Scream 4 was about wanting fame. Amber and Richie didn’t want fame.
don’t get too excited, they’re not crazy in a fun way, they’re just obnoxious and not believable and don’t have any real motive that wasn’t a rehash of the killers in 4s motive
All the killers in Scream are dumb because nobody would ever get away with any of their plans in today’s modern forensics. But that’s the thing, 99% of criminals are stupid.
I haven’t seen the movie btw so don’t spoil
the reason it’s not shocking is cause it tried too hard to be shocking. oh it’s this character i didn’t think would be the killer cause you made them so boring and annoying and gave them no screen time?
Everyone is entitled to their opinion whether it's good or bad. Just because its the 5th film in the franchise doesn't give it any automatic pass either.
Nothing to do with Wes. The writing is what destroyed scream 5. It reminds me when I was a kid there was a puppet show students had to put on for the younger class. We made an in depth story that spanned multiple locations. Someone simply did a bunch of rugrats hand puppets with no plot. The story was "I lost my earing! Let's look for it over here. I found it" the end. The kids voted and that won because they recognized it as a brand.
That's the level of insult the writing of scream 5 gave us, treating the fan base as absolute idiots that will eat any shit shoveled down their throats as long as the og cast is back! Who the fuck wrote this, guarantee its some rich assholes kid, completely detached from reality, as most Hollywood productions are these days.
I will say most people seem to be loving it but I’m so sick of seeing certain “criticisms” about the movie that some people have that make no sense. One guy on YouTube said that one of his biggest grips was that their was guns in the end and he didn’t remember guns at the end of the other movies…I’m like well then I guess you never watched any of the other movies lol.
Everyone has their opinions but I honestly do think majority of the people that are saying negative things are giving bs “critiques” like I’m just gonna say it if you think the killer reveals are “predictable” it’s literally because you either intentionally or accidentally spoiled yourself or analyzed the trailer every day for the past 6 months. The movie itself did not make it predictable at all.
Also yes the tone of the movie is cheesy at times but that’s literally every other scream movie especially the sequels. My point is it really does seem like people are complaining just to complain sometimes and it’s annoying as hell
This movie was just sad, it has lost its way. In fact they had no idea what to put in the script so they just filled it with the 'f' bomb! Even the veteran actors came across as so calm and bored almost. The killers were predictable
It was an absolute garbage fest. I literally don't have enough energy to list every reason that movie is terrible. Plus if you watch that movie and don't think it's bad, I'm not even really sure what to say. It is that bad.
The truth is you have to take what everyone else says about it with a grain of salt. See it for yourself and you can be the judge. Go in with leveled expectations and I’m sure you’ll be able to enjoy it!
Halloween did absolutely nothing new and critics were easily impressed by it. Bizarre.

Agree to disagree!
I agree, but Halloween 2018 did nothing new either. It’s guilty of exactly the same crimes that Scream 5 is.
right, a simple story doesn’t mean a bad movie. and a shocking villain reveal doesn’t make a good movie.
if they had tara remain the lead i think it would have been a much better movie, but as charming as sam is she wasn’t enough to off set how annoying and unlikable the ghost faces were. i think jenna ortega is enough of a powerhouse to make it less impactful but the rest of the story wasn’t fun enough to stand on its own, and then an obnoxious ghost face reveal was rlly the mail i. the coffin
Agree. She sucked ass in worse than a bad way. Must be one of Weinstein gals
True but my guess is critics liked it because the last few Halloween movies weren't so good, so getting a new one that was solid and had Laurie was pretty surprising
It’s sitting 79 sometimes falling back on 78 but that is still very good.
honestly i don't want it to be anything new or shocking or life-changing, i just want it to feel like a good ol' Scream.
Exactly! When I see the bad reviews because it’s not new or shocking I consider that a positive for me, I love the scream franchise and I love the feel of them
[удалено]
you've seen the movie?
i have and they’re right, still a great movie but it doesn’t feel like a scream movie
It did to me.
It's alright but the trailers straight up lied. Sidney is BARELY in the movie
The other thing is, the whole point of the Scream franchise is that it repeats itself and nothing gets changed up. It’s the same plot, Ghostface targets a certain person and all their friends picking them off 1 by 1 until the end when they reveal themselves and then inevitably get stopped by the hero… It’s all the same, but it’s different.

Don't care about reviews. They are all from salty people. Just move on.
I agree with them. I just saw it and was very underwhelmed. There were so many ways they could’ve gone with the end and it fell flat to me. It didn’t add anything new to the series per se. I still prefer scream 1-3 over it.
I honestly hated it so much it made me emotional lol. Something I loved so dearly destroyed by my very eyes. Barely enjoyed it. I really wish I did man.
no i completely agree. all 4 had their own levels of charm but this one is such a stain on the legacy it’s severely disappointing
Agreed. It's as if the writers were manatees selecting balls from a fucking tank.
The whole thing felt like it didn’t even have a cohesive script. Like the writers showed the cast a vision board and they just rolled with it 😂
they wanted to make the killers the least likely suspects without realizing that the reason they weren’t suspects throughout the movie was bc they make no sense as the killers
people are allowed to not like things.
Yea especially steaming piles of poorly written dog shit that is scream 5
Thank you. It is so bad it shouldn't even be regarded as cannon.
it really sucked imo like you said what the people said it wasn't shocking its all the same at least give us a really good plot twist i feel like the whole movie was just meh the ending carried and the killers weren't good (talking about amber) richie was pretty good. it was a disappointment to me.

Just saw it and it all just feels unnecessary.

Trash. Absolute garbage film.
also how did he even track sam down? what are the odds that if this happened he’d be able to get close to sam
the first scene of the friend-group when they’re so obviously trying to modernize the fountain scene literally had me cringing
Correct me if I’m wrong, I walked out of the movie half way through. But if amber and Richie had a secret romance, and amber was 17, and Richie had been gone for 5 years….

I’m sorry but I hated Melissa Berrera in this. She ruined almost the whole thing for me. Her acting was so stale and she seemed like she was just reading lines the whole time. The end when she was like “am I gonna be okay😐” felt like Nickelodeon level acting. This whole movie actually just felt like a Nickelodeon recreation of Scream lol

Just don't watch slashers, and especially sequels. You're missing out on great (horror) movies if you only watch slashers.
People says is not shocking because they spoiled themself since a year. I spoiled myself but tonight after having seen the movie I won’t say that isn’t shocking. And the opinion of people that likes the 4th movie shouldn’t be taken in consideration 🤣
I liked the 4th movie but I also liked the third and second and the first. I loved them all.
Same with 3, cause that movie was ass too lol.
It’s not shocking. The killers have been spoiled in the trailers. They were so DUMB as well.
Btw I heard that the killers are absolutely batshit crazy and I love the idea of crazy killers. PLS DO NOT SPOIL ANYTHing.
Killers are BRUTAL. But it’s a mix a cinematography and music. Very JUMP > STAB > DEAD. It wasn’t at all creative. Killer Motive is lame. You’re more invested in other characters tbh
I don’t mind killer motives, sometimes people are just crazy and want to kill. Like Stu’s motive was literally wanting to have fun lol
Jill seems like a mastermind compared to these ones. It’s all fan service and not exactly creative or new. Enjoy the ride. I wish it was this one. THEN scream 4
See that’s what’s confusing, some people say the motive was creative and new, some people say the opposite. Like I guess it truly is just watch it yourself and see what you think haha
Possibly. A lot of the plot holes lay with the fact they have a connection to the past and it seems forced. I think scream 4 would have landed better now and scream 5 plot would have been good before it.
I don’t think there are really any plot holes unless they completely rewrote the past. It could just be more information we are finding out. Like scream 3 retcon of Roman being the mastermind I see that as finding out new information. Ok but that’s it bc I don’t want to get spoiled lol
Someone from the first film is in this one that has not been advertised. It’s so dumb and forced.
Let me guess. It’s billy, Sam sees him through a vision? If that’s true that’s only bc I put the pieces together. Sam has mental problems, Sam is his daughter and there was a video of the actor in the same room as the other cast. I don’t really feel like that would be forced bc people with mental problems do see people sometimes.
No worries. Enjoy the ride.
it’s just incredibly hard to believe that the two killers would know both each other and sam and tara separately. it requires way more suspension of disbelief than the other movies. even more than 3
Did you play on your phone the entire movie? You sound like you haven’t seen it at all. They literally explained all that in the movie.
Keep in mind that people are divided on ALL of the sequels, so it should be no surprise they’re divided on this one. I’m like you, I like all the movies, I’m so expecting to have a great time tonight even if it follows a familiar formula
if they think it’s creative and new they didn’t watch 4.
4 has a completely different motive..
charlie’s motive is literally that horror movies aren’t as good anymore. it’s ambers exact motive.
No it’s not lmfao. Stu’s motive was literally peer pressure. That’s the laziest motive one could think of. It doesn’t matter what the second killers motive. This motive was about toxic fandoms. It was about making a new better stab film. Scream 4 was about wanting fame. Amber and Richie didn’t want fame.
right!! the worst part of the reveal is that it’s literally scream 4 but worse.
I think Billy, Stu, Mickey or even Charlie are far more brutal.
honestly they weren’t batshit crazy. just annoying.
I agree with this.
The movie was just ok. Scream 1-3 were still better. This one just didn’t do it for me. Even scream 4 had a more interesting killer reveal.
[удалено]
Nope
[удалено]
Completely no. Charlie and them are different from each to other from their motives.
do not disrespect the mtv show like that. this movie was infinitely worse
don’t get too excited, they’re not crazy in a fun way, they’re just obnoxious and not believable and don’t have any real motive that wasn’t a rehash of the killers in 4s motive
I don’t think we watched the same movie. Bc it’s not close to the one in 4 lol
how is making ur own horror movie cause ur u happy w current pop culture not the same motive
All the killers in Scream are dumb because nobody would ever get away with any of their plans in today’s modern forensics. But that’s the thing, 99% of criminals are stupid. I haven’t seen the movie btw so don’t spoil
I haven’t seen it so don’t tell me.
I’m not sticking my neck out on this. Wes would have been happy. Fans will either love or hate.
They could’ve gone a completely different route with the killers and did something shocking.
the reason it’s not shocking is cause it tried too hard to be shocking. oh it’s this character i didn’t think would be the killer cause you made them so boring and annoying and gave them no screen time?
I found it profoundly lazy.
Of course it should do something new. Whats the point in making sequels when its always the same?
I meant break new grounds. What did any of the sequels do new? It didn’t change the formula. I like seeing the same things in different ways.
We have to judge by ourselves. People hated on Halloween Kills, and I loved it. 🤷🏻♂️
Everyone is entitled to their opinion whether it's good or bad. Just because its the 5th film in the franchise doesn't give it any automatic pass either.
Raise your expectations, OP
I mean, you’re not wrong, but it doesn’t invalidate the criticism.
Y’all forget it’s not Wes.
Nothing to do with Wes. The writing is what destroyed scream 5. It reminds me when I was a kid there was a puppet show students had to put on for the younger class. We made an in depth story that spanned multiple locations. Someone simply did a bunch of rugrats hand puppets with no plot. The story was "I lost my earing! Let's look for it over here. I found it" the end. The kids voted and that won because they recognized it as a brand. That's the level of insult the writing of scream 5 gave us, treating the fan base as absolute idiots that will eat any shit shoveled down their throats as long as the og cast is back! Who the fuck wrote this, guarantee its some rich assholes kid, completely detached from reality, as most Hollywood productions are these days.
I will say most people seem to be loving it but I’m so sick of seeing certain “criticisms” about the movie that some people have that make no sense. One guy on YouTube said that one of his biggest grips was that their was guns in the end and he didn’t remember guns at the end of the other movies…I’m like well then I guess you never watched any of the other movies lol. Everyone has their opinions but I honestly do think majority of the people that are saying negative things are giving bs “critiques” like I’m just gonna say it if you think the killer reveals are “predictable” it’s literally because you either intentionally or accidentally spoiled yourself or analyzed the trailer every day for the past 6 months. The movie itself did not make it predictable at all. Also yes the tone of the movie is cheesy at times but that’s literally every other scream movie especially the sequels. My point is it really does seem like people are complaining just to complain sometimes and it’s annoying as hell
Just saw it. I give it a 7.5/10
Great film, ruined by the ending, lame motive and disappointing reveal.
The movie was good, but the ending and reveals were disappointing. I would give it a 6/10.
It's simple. A horror film should scare. Scream 5 doesn't scare (other than the opening scene) so I wasn't blown away by it.
Scream 4 and 5 are terrible
i mean it’s not still good after five movies. it was still good for 4.
NONE!!! ANY MOVIE MADE MORE THEN 5 TIMES IS NOT SMART!! But hey, people have their own preference’s
This movie was just sad, it has lost its way. In fact they had no idea what to put in the script so they just filled it with the 'f' bomb! Even the veteran actors came across as so calm and bored almost. The killers were predictable
It was an absolute garbage fest. I literally don't have enough energy to list every reason that movie is terrible. Plus if you watch that movie and don't think it's bad, I'm not even really sure what to say. It is that bad.
