    Not seen this for ages but really enjoyed the rewatch. Great bit of queer history that deserved to be immortalised on film. Really likeable cast with a good balance of humor alongside the more serious undertones of political unrest, social commentary and the AIDS epidemic.

    ★★★★

    A decent reboot of the franchise, playing on its roots as the original meta horror makes it more organic than other franchises attempting the same. Familiar faces, a strong new cast and the expected kills make this an enjoyable slasher that plays the nostalgia card very well to attract the old audience as well as new. Rewatched in preparation for the release of Scream 6 this week but also because it's fun and as rewatchable as the original film and Scream 4.
