the killer could be anyone.
My Thoughts: This movie is
one of the best acted horror movies I have personally ever seen. I was
very impressed with the story, the back story and the whole feel to this
movie. Let's see how this movie ranks.
Scorecard
Acting- Look
at the actors in this movie...Neve Campbell (plays Sidney), Courtney Cox
(plays the bitch reporter), David Arquette (plays the moronic deputy),
Jaime Kennedy (plays the stupid friend that works at a video store), Skeet
Ulrich (plays the crazy former boyfriend to Sidney), Rose McGowen (plays
the best friend to Sidney), with all them actors, this is bound to be
pretty good right? Everyone played their parts perfectly and was very
impressed with the way things turned out. (1)
Direction-
I was not a big fan of Wes Craven when this movie came out. This far
surpassed anything I was expecting from him. I really liked the direction
of this film, it went right where it should have, and things were kept
thrilling on the way there. Impressive direction. (1)
Story-
This story was never all that great. Crazy murderer(s) kill just to do it.
No real reason. I liked the way the film was written, but I did not like
the plot of the movie. If that makes sense to you, give yourself a pat on
the back! (1/2)
Expectations-
This movie was great. I expected in to be pretty good, but it was great.
It kind of surpassed expectations I had for it, but not by much, so I
really cannot give it a full star. (1/2)
Boring?- Not
if you like a lot of killings. This movie was just really fun to watch. It
had crazy killings, good acting, bad acting (in a good way), clever
dialogue and a crazy killer(s) walking around in a ghost mask. What more
can you ask for? (1)
Final Score: 4
out of 5
Final Thoughts: This movie
was pure gold. There was nothing I really did not like about this movie.
It was all good clean wholesome fun, with a lot of blood, deaths for no
reason, and even some fun trivia on horror movies. If you have yet to see
this movie, I really urge you to go see it.
