Keith Houchen Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 I hope it got so damaged it can’t be repaired and the whole thing gets binned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Devon Malcolm Posted October 12, 2021 Paid Members Share Posted October 12, 2021 I have fond memories of going to see Scream 4 because afterwards we saw Bez calling a traffic warden a twat for giving him a ticket. No fond memories of the film though, they're all shit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd have had fewer issues with the inherent silliness of it if they hadn't set it up by using subject matter like miscarriage and abuse in the first half. I'm not saying these subjects can't be used in horror, but I think they should be used sparingly and/or respectfully. Totally fine with silly, and going ridiculously over-the-top, but I found it a really uncomfortable and jarring switch as a result. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theringmaster Posted October 13, 2021 Share Posted October 13, 2021 Why wasn't the new Scream called 5cream? I hate they have called it 'Scream' when it's clearly a continuation of the series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Jazzy G Posted October 13, 2021 Paid Members Share Posted October 13, 2021 It was good enough for Five-nal De5tination. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaitoRyo Posted October 13, 2021 Share Posted October 13, 2021 Would like to know the reasoning behind calling it Scream. You already have the film and the TV series and this isn't a reboot but a continuation of the existing story. Baffles. Anyone bothered checking out the new Chucky TV series? I've read mixed things, but I've always had a soft spot for the Child's Play films from when I was younger and thought the last two (Mancini) films were good fun, so will probably give this a watch.

It's a continuation of the movie series, but it's a reboot, they're rebooting it for a new generation, and whilst they have 3 of the original main cast, I think it's centered on a new 'Sidney' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It makes them look like a remake Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WyattSheepMask Posted October 13, 2021 Share Posted October 13, 2021 Isn’t it just down to being recognised titles and brands? Speaking of Halloween, we continued working our way through them ahead of Halloween Kills by getting the two Rob Zombie movies out of the way. The first one was the better of the two, closer to being a straight up remake but with additional origin story nonsense, but Christ almighty that second one was fucking horrendous even by Zombie’s low standards. “Myers has this iconic, instantly recognisable look to him. So how about, right, get this...he spends 90% of his screen time wearing a big biker jacket & hoodie with his hood up” Ten down, one to go. I did see Halloween (2018) at the time and seem to remember enjoying it, so that’s at least a minor bonus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The second one is particularly awful, made only tolerable by Malcolm McDowell hamming it up for the pay day. I’m surprised that Rob’s wife hasn’t tried to convince him to just go Director full-time seen as it seems to be the only work she can get Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll be glad to know that Sherri is playing Lily Munster in the upcoming The Munsters film, directed by Rob Zombie.

The first one opened with Young Michael listening to ‘God of Thunder’, and all I wanted from then on was a ‘KISS Meets Michael Myers’ Scooby Doo style caper, which would’ve been infinitely better than either film.
