Review of Scream VI (2023) by Ezra80 — 16 Jul 2023
Passing down the mask "Out of cliché comes opportunity for outside art" as samara weaving said before leaving too early,and well it's true for a couple of shots during this flick as screams and shouts get higher than the previous film in this long time running franchise.
We got to see more from Jenna Ortega the uprising star portraiting Tara,throwing punches and take-downs all over the place just at 5ft.1 or maybe a touch less.alongside her sister Sam played by Melissa Barrera who stole the show and lead act in Scream 5 as well,as they try to solve this time's more complex whodunit and behind the mask mystery in matching style and a modern take compared to the original films.
Opening up with two wannabe rookies trying to pull off ghostface leads to a ghostface with a shotgun!.
The story takes it all up a notch with good writing,nice soundtrack and really the best part, messier,harsher and more gruesome kills with blood spilled everywhere to match the vibe that a masked killer should give.
Creating an enjoyable cat and mouse game while showing old faces too like Courteney Cox and Hayden Panettiere that climaxes to a cheesy and unrealistic though acceptable final act.
Taking the old story and tricks to the new world and trying to keep it alive,with more knives and stabs and succeed,but not in every aspect.
Just make sure you don't pick up your phone while watching or who knows?
You maybe next.
