Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
A low-voltage drive-in movie, made strictly by the book.
It's just a weary sigh over how Scream's juicy archness has already turned into boilerplate.
Competently made!
Those of us with brain cells, however, will spit out this Scream retread like it was spider-egg-laced bubble gum.
