I don’t know anyone who’s been Craven for a new Scream, but like it or not, the self-aware slasher series is back. Promoting that the “rules” of horror have changed for a new generation, Scream 4 takes pride in labelling the new set of horror clichés, only to commit most of them moments later. The film opens up with an brilliant stab at shark-jumping sequels (“Saw” that coming) and ends with a twist so delightfully bonkers that you have no choice but to go “Well… ok.” The over-referencing can get annoying and Dewey’s still an idiot, but its surprisingly fun.
