I liked what I said the last time I watched this, so I’ll repeat it:
“This movie is so fucking great and ahead of its time. It’s all about that Jan Brady vibe.”
And add:
My nostalgic love for this one goes back to childhood, and I just realized this viewing that I’d probably put it among my favorite comedies.
**** out of ****
This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.
I really want to like Osgood (aka Oz) Perkins. Really, I do. I probably first saw him during his acting days in Not Another Teen Movie, as a random guy at a party that we learn Mia Kirshner’s character has had a strangely intimate encounter with. Probably his proudest credit on his resume, I’m sure.
That was before I knew he was the son of Anthony Perkins, who was known mostly as Norman Bates in the original Alfred Hitchcock film…
It is a simple fact that every character is at their hottest in Scream 2. Also, while it can’t beat the writing or originality of the first film, I think this one is the most well-made technically. It’s also my favorite (one of the rare times I like a sequel more than the first).
