What's Your Favorite Scary Movie?

I first fell in love with the "Scream" saga after watching the first one on cable because I was too young to see it in the theaters. The following two were just as fulfilling of my slasher-flick bloodlust when I got to see them. Let it be known that I LOVE THE SCREAM MOVIES. The classic motifs, the triumph of those who know the rules and the recurring characters of Sydney, Dewey, and Gail. These are my generation's horror flicks, and they have everything you could ever want in a series.
*Note: "Saw" and its subsequent sequels are NOT horror movies or slasher flicks. They are, rightfully quoted, "Torture Porn." I have never seen them, and I don't plan on it in my lifetime.

So when I heard that Scre4m was coming out, I almost passed out with joy over the return of my favorite victims and storylines, despite some worry about Wes Craven (director) messing up what was already so perfect. Remember: Don't fuck with the original. We're going back to Woodsboro: Ghostface is killing, Sydney will inevitably be returning as a "stronger person," Dewey and Gail will appear as a married couple (because you saw the proposal at the end of Scream 3, too!) and there will be a whole new set of rules. There's a reason Ghostface is coming back at the same time Sydney returns to Woodsboro to promote her book on the ANNIVERSARY OF THE ORIGINAL MURDERS! When we see this at the top of the movie, we know that there is going to be a connection between this set of murders and the first set. A whole new batch of high-school kids who love the "Stab" series based on Sydney's life, movie buffs, the creepy boyfriend (A.K.A. Billy Loomis) and we have the inevitable Sydney character in Jill, whom we find out to be Sydney's Cousin. Sydney is back, Ghostface is back, so its obvious that the killer, whomever he/she/they may be, is gonna be after both of them. My bloodlust had returned.

New Century. New Movie. New Rules. New Killer.

I will NOT reveal anything else about the movie... yet. Maybe when the movie's been out for a month, I'll drop a few spoiler alerts. I will beg each and every one of you to go see it and satisfy your thirst for the Woodsboro murders. It's worth it, I promise, and you will not be disappointed.


Cheers,
Ennui, who has a renewed faith in the life of the Slasher-Flick.
