[@rileytipper5110]

@@devontehuntley6274 I’m Davy I’d argue 4 is even better than 2 , the reveal was much more satisfying and the modern aspects were great

[@devontehuntley6274]

@@rileytipper5110 No it's not. 4 is the weakest for the reasons I've explained. It was a lousy attempt of a revival with story tweaks, character swaps and pretty much all of its deleted scenes included and better filtering could have made it really shine. It fell flat and the franchise went dead for a decade because of it. How the hell do you pin Scream 4 over 2??? Over how the killer is revealed? How are Jill and Charlie any better? At least with #2 you have two grown adults who have more experience to pull off than what Jill and Charlie should have been able to do. Puh-leeeeease. You're giving this lackluster of a sequel way too much praise that it's humorous at this point.

[@jaguarrose7022]

I find it interesting how no one's parents are ever around in any of these movies. When I was growing up my at least one of my parents was ALWAYS HOME! They didn't go nowhere, definitely not on vacation for days at a time. They went to work, church (I had to go too) and came home. That's it! Jill's mom was the only parent we saw and she was useless!

[@fredbearchannel976]

We saw Wes mom with her son wes in the house in scream 5 but then she left to get sushi leaving her son alone in the house

[@pikminn823]

Most of these kids have parents, caseys parents didn't make it in time, Steven orth died, principle himbry is a dude, stus parents obviously wouldn't stick around if he was having a party so everything that happened in the house is excusable, that's just for the first scream though

[@BrandonJames2016]

I’ll never understand how this movie didn’t perform good at the box office like it’s really good people were just different at the time and didn’t understand anything. Jill imo is the most psycho of all these killers especially with her harming herself like that’s dedication to avoid having to work💀

[@greenie915]

I'm a younger fan of Scream, I was almost 6 when Scream 4 was released so when I came back to watch Scream 4 after years for just some Nostalgia after Scream 5 was announced I was surprised how well it holds up. Jill's motive, which probably didn't make much then, makes so much sense now. In this day and age there are a lot of people who would hurt others for clout. And I remember nack in 2019 - 2020 some dude would kill his neighbor with his girlfriend recording the incident, intending to become popular on TikTok. This solidified how great Scream 4 really is.

Scream 4 is very underrated, I really thought this movie was better than its predecessor and tried to take the series back to its roots. I just hope Scream (2022) gets more positive feedback and gets people scared by Ghostface again

[@MultiKadafi]

More like overrated

[@razkable]

4 executed its ideas so well...it really was like the original in reboot form done well as a sequel...props well done its probably the best of the 4 sequels

[@MultiKadafi]

@@razkable nothing like the original. The first two are leagues ahead. I didn't like 3 the first time i watched it but it was pretty decent watching it recently and it was pretty creative in how they use the voice changer and duplicate the voices of the main characters. The killer was poor choice. Part 4 was just corny and the characters were dull and killers were laughable they couldn't bust a grape in real life and somehow they are like some unstoppable force.

[@JeremyPryer]

@@doc8013 I enjoy 5 a bit more personally but my main point was that I would never consider 4 underrated with how the fandom often ranks it. It certainly didn’t perform as well at the box office as the others’ but that was more due to the timing of the original release.

[@jakepark3272]

No movie has shocked me as much as the twist in this movie. It’s so fresh and surprising, but yet believable at the same time. You could watch this movie so many times because of how fun it is and the fresh energy of some of the new cast (Emma, Hayden, Marley).

Scream 4 was the first scream movie I saw, the scene where he was in the other closet had me going crazy. I'll never forget that day.

[@Philosopher_w24]

I love Scream 4, and I think it serves as a better conclusion to the original trilogy than 3. The Jill/family connection is more impactful than the Roman angle.

[@system0fadowner251]

True but my only issue is it begs the question, has Sydneys aunt (her mom's sister) just been chilling in town through allll the shit in the trilogy without ever showing up or contacting her niece? It's a small nit pick but something that kinda makes me laugh.

[@razkable]

Not to mention the whole hicks vs kincaid angle...hicks is way better as a red hearing and 4th survivor...she seemed more like a character than Patrick Dempsey who played himself

“You got mail” took me tf out 🤣🤣 another great video my guy 🙌🏽

[@ForWhatItsWorth_]

I loved the subtle touch they did with Jill's ex-boyfriend having an outfit identical to Sydney's father in the first movie. I also liked how they reversed the Gail filming the teenagers thing with the Killer filming her before she attacks her and how the reporters got the story wrong at the end that Jill was the hero as opposed to the original with Gail actually getting the story right in the first one.

Dude, I saw this once. I thought it was shit. But after listening to this review, you’re actually right. It was ahead of its time and it wasn’t bad after all. Great review man!

[@devontehuntley6274]

Oh no, it was bad. Keep that original thought. So much of this movie was all wrong, the filtering that got it looking all glossy, twenty minutes of deleted footage just lost that could have really helped develop the movie some more, the ending was so abrupt like they were in a rush to end it, and so on. The camera social media stuff was not at all "infant" as Chris makes it at 11:40 when you have movies like HALLOWEEN RESURRECTION which was ten years earlier and involved social media and live web cams. That was more-so in the toddler stage since it was 2001 and perhaps the first horror movie to really showcase this at the time, but it started in the early-to-mid 1990s. Things got a lot more advanced by Scream 4's time. Social media and live streams wasn't anything new.

[@_the_rizzler]

Don't keep that original thought like this dude's saying. Rewatch it with a positive new outlook and see what you think. If you love it, great. If you still hate it, that's also okay

[@Alexander-bs5xj]

@@devontehuntley6274 I don't think it's correct to compare 2001's Halloween Resurrection with Scream 4...Social media (like Facebook and Twitter) were not a thing at all in 2001. KZbin wasn't even invented. We had webcams yes but we were not consuming social media as much back in 2001. We just didn't have many options. 2011 was social media at its infancy...in terms of becoming a huge consuming power in how we absorb and communicate information. Twitter was just becoming popular. KZbin had only been a thing for 6-7 years at that point. So I wouldn't say Halloween Resurrection featured "social media" because that part of "the internet" didn't exist then. But when you look at social media from 2011 to now currently....social media is even more powerful and all consuming now. Scream 4 is lauded as ahead of its time because for 2011 it was: they created a motive in Jill wanting to be an influencer/famous when that term/phrase wasn't even as prevalent as it is now with social media. Now look at social media: We have so many more platforms for people to become "influencers" and notoriety. So I do think Scream 4 was ahead of its time in that respect.

[@devontehuntley6274]

@@Alexander-bs5xj Maybe you're right on SOME aspects, but the point is, the social media thing wasn't quite in its infancy by 2011 as one may think. We've had people making online videos and web shows as far back as the 1990s, so granted we didn't have the Instagram, the Snapchat, the Tik Tok, but we still had a lot of other platforms by then for years of existing to act like it was all brand new. In 2001, there were the platforms at the times kind of like what we have now. Not the exact same ones, but they were similar. Chat rooms were a thing and a chunk of Resurrection has two main characters communicating through it and that aspect was used in the final girl's survival. I'd say social media was more-so in its infant stages THEN than by 2011 where it's evolved significantly. Even by 2031, it will have evolved more that makes the 2020-2022 era look dated and come off "infant". But it was well advanced at THAT time than where it started two decades back and it was like that by 2011. Again, this started in the 1990s so it was more of an infant by 2001 than any of the following decades down the line here.

[@razkable]

The issue was some of the characters felt very flat 2d cartoon goofy or boring bland....if all the new kids side characters and police were written like Jill Kirby and Hicks this movie could of been better than 1....instead the rest of of new cast feel like fodder or generic...shame...they had something original and unique with 4 while paying homage and having respect but they messed it up because they don't want us feeling too bad for the deaths so they write those characters poorly

[@hollabigT]

This is why I think in Scream 6, it would be fascinating that the killer or killers are OBSESSED with Sidney, the way Jill was, but not on becoming Sidney, but killing off all the stragglers and making Sid THE ONLY survivor...out of their love for her

Scream 4 is so GOOD! I think people tried to write it off due to the last one and the overload of meta references to other horror movies but with all that aside Jill was the perfect Killer honestly and all those things she said in 2011 still hold up till this day fr okay maybe not the f-up part for fame eventhough that does happen🤭 and can we just give her, her props as she was the first killer not to make scream or make mad noises when she came alive for the second time.

This movie is truly a masterpiece, one of my all-time favorites. It's so sad the fact that it flopped I would've loved seeing the whole planned trilogy, but here we are now finally getting a new installment in the franchise so let's just hope it doesn't disappoint.

[@razkable]

It made a lot of money...the issue was its budget....they wasted so much money marketing wise gore wise props stunts sets wise and they just had to bring in famous people who demanded high salary to be in a slasher...and die..like Emma Hayden Anthony even Rory to go with Cox David and Neve and Kevin and Wes even..they didnt have to do that....the og 3 would of sold the film...you don't need to go over board to sell scream at that point...it sold itself but 3 killed its buzz so they felt they had to go all out for fans to return but they didn't realize fans were starved and would of accepted anything at that time

Everyone after the fact swore it was obvious who the killer was in the movie. But I remember watching this in theaters, when Charlie was revealed, I thought Jill's boyfriend was the killer. This movie, even with a confusing opening, it's an underrated masterpiece. The twists are the best in the franchise imo and the kills are the most brutal. Not the most diverse (the franchise never has been. They've mainly used a hunting knife). But definitely the most brutal. And possibly the most dangerous main killer since Billy Loomis. Solid review.

[@everythingweather]

I definitely enjoyed Scream 4, I thought it was clever that they played into how the new age of technology was going and where it definitely seemed like it was headed (and that's exactly where it was headed), but that's also the biggest problem with the film is that it was way too ahead of its time, I think Wes Craven and Kevin Williamson should've waited to make this film until 2014 or 2015 to be more successful with this idea. Obviously Wes died in 2015, but could've still made it and released in 2014 which would've helped the film on all fronts, especially with the box office. It definitely looks like the new Scream played perfectly, and much more up to date with the Scream 4 concept because it made way more sense to use it now. I definitely don't think its anywhere close to the original or Scream 2, it lays in more of the mid-tier between Scream 2 and Scream 3 for me.

Cool review and commentary brother! I still don’t love 4 but it was put together way better than the cluster f**k 3 was.

[@Cosplay_outlaw]

I was never a fan of the scream franchise until I decided to watch your reviews on them and now I’m pumped for scream 5 thank you 3cfilms

[@Nicholas_Chen_]

Excellent emphasis on the social media and modern remake theme of the film, they are now being done to death with people doing stupid things for fame and the trend of 'requels' and in that regard, SCRE4M is really, REALLY a film ahead of its time! Also I believe Jill did most of the killings based on her behaviour in the final act in the hospital, her movements are BRUTAL abd straight to the point and very much like this version of GF, while Charlie's is more aggressive and elaborate with multiple stabbings.

[@antoniosantiagoandino7379]

I admire the quality and sincerity that you put in every single video

[@bittersweetJADE_]

FINALLY SOMEONE MENTIONS THE CINEMATOGRAPHY!! It doesn’t look pretty but I do respect Wes’s idea of the cinematography for reboots and remakes did at the time so I can respect it but I still don’t really like it but I get it

[@saulesparza4291]

Yeah the cinematography looks too bright and blurry at the same time like what he said about sludgy, grease made up something or whatever

[@FrenchFrey18]

I vividly remember seeing the trailer for this on tv. When I finally saw and saw who the killer was I was so shocked. Loved how they actually won to an extent...

[@GageGamingGG]

I loved your scream reviews and I can’t wait for your review on the new scream. I just know I will love it too

[@SnoopVee]

I guess im the only one who didn't notice the whole "glossy" thing cause i still dont see it lol but I enjoyed your review. Me and my friend were having a talk about the new movie and he sent me your Scream 3 review and i decided to watch this one. Dope review my guy!!🙌🏾🙌🏾

[@michaelnealis1926]

I love Scream 4 more than 1. Kirby steals the show for me, and I really hope she’s in 5

[@razkable]

When Jill shoots that guy in the dick I died laughing

[@Arcris_VehiconEditorForFun]

I remember this movie as a kid, I thought the ending was really surprising and interesting

[@JordanSmith-up7xe]

I completely agree here! Scream 4 is the best sequel!! It’s better than the new Scream 5. I liked the new cast of Scream 4 better than the new cast of 5. My favorite scene is Gale in the barn!

[@JillRobertsIsmyGF]

SCRE4M literally was a commentary on Scream2022 10+yrs before it even came out.

[@Phillycheeeeze]

Wow, the way you break everything down really hit me about how much ahead of time this movie was.. I was a sophomore in high school when this came out and it’s also one of the first Blu Ray’s I bought . Now I’m in my mid 20’s and Scream 5 is about to drop, holy shit 🤯

[@freshlysqueezed-r3u]

I like the multilayered opening but it would’ve worked better to incorporate Sydney in some way so the audience knows that the final one is real.

[@jordanmelven]

14:55 That edit was hilariously clever of you, lol. 😆👌

[@marcusyates3044]

"SCRE4M" that's how they stylized it, right?

[@3CFilms]

Yes lol

[@-Hunter240x]

Now that was your best intro. I'd love to see your Stab 5 lol I hated Scream 4 originally on first viewing but now I do think it's one of the better put together Scream movies. Definently ahead of it's time.

[@joseroman6848]

A great review you did on this film man but I can’t go that far to say this film was a masterpiece only because I don’t consider it to be better than Scream 1 or 2, I would say definitely better than Scream 3. I still liked Scream 4 but to this day I kinda find the film to be pointless. Besides some of the creative easter eggs & points of using modern day technology that they used in the film to try & create new rules in the slasher horror genre, if Wes Craven & them was giving/saying the big FU or middle finger to reboots and remakes which I can appreciate, in a way they still tried to reboot the franchise, especially now knowing that they wanted to make another trilogy. With all that I was very disappointed with the ending & I definitely would have loved to seen the characters of Jill & Kirby in the next film like 5cream. Not a bad film at all though, just wish it was more impactful with the direction & decision that they went with.

[@joeldean2706]

I think this Scream film underrated to watch. But my favourite Scream film is still the first one. Can not wait for Chris's review on the new Scream film.

[@ArthurKillingsworthJr]

Emma roberts was a good casting choice for the role. She ended up doing some great things in American Horror Story a few years after this

[@LukeLovesRose]

Emma Roberts was actually arrested for beating up her boyfriend

[@tiktokmemes4588]

Dewy was basically sids brother

[@Spidey_Battleedits]

Scream 4 is great imo

[@3CFilms]

Thanks For The Support!

[@MistarZtv]

this movie was ahead of its time. how else did it knew that ASS would be a delicacy in 2022?

[@darthwalker220]

I cant decide where this stands in my ranking. On the one hand the movie is really well made and probably the highest quality since the original. However, the twist/reveal is so painfully obvious that even I figured it out at the start of the movie, and I never figured anything out in the original 3.

[@georgiee_9126]

Scream 4 came on my 20th bday. And now the New Scream is out when I'm 30! Best present ever man ! FYI I didn't think Jill was the killer at that time. I thought it was Kirby or deputy Hicks. Anyways great video 👍🏻

[@thomaslangford5039]

Loved scream 4 Hayden going from love you Beth cooper to scream was great she nailed Kirby can't wait for the new scream such a great cast from smallvilles flash Bart to play the outsider as well as iron fist and 13 reasons why to show how good they are gonna mantle this with the original legacies

[@CanadianSlasher]

i loved the edit of scream 5 time travel skit . I laughed out loud when the car teleported

[@anggg.9890]

scream 4 is definitely underrated. i'm optimistic about 5cream though and i'm declaring that it's just as good as the original

[@hunter_hult]

Ok you persuaded me! I didn’t like this movie and thought it ruined the franchise, but after hearing you talk about it and thinking about it for a little bit… you might be right!

[@johnbegay4012]

I thought of the Saw movies when I first saw the opening sequence. It gets tiresome and predictable to the point you want the movies to stop. Makes sense if Scream is poking fun at it

[@kippkippington]

I personally love the 4th one and felt like Scream 5 was just an inferior version of Scream 4. I'd have been perfectly content with 4 ending the whole thing

[@NolansMovieTalk]

I absolutely love this Scream movie its my second favorite one rn. But I do think the new one will dethrone it when I see it tomorrow. I'm so excited I get to see it a day early 🤗 1. Scream 2. Scream 4 3. Scream 2 4. Scream 3

[@CrackedPropane]

That’s my ranking too! I love 1-2,4. But I don’t like the 3rd one that much still my favorite franchise

[@NolansMovieTalk]

@@CrackedPropane yes personally I feel like Scream in the only franchise to actually not have a bad movie it just has a disappointing one but still the most consistent franchise. My favorite horror movies would go 1. Halloween 1978 2. The thing 3. Scream

[@PhiladelphiaChurchIL]

This movie was filmed in my home town! Bizarre to see them hanging out around all the little downtown spots we’d hang out at in high school.

[@AliFrankTheTank]

Movie a classic idc!!!! The scene at 8:40 did always confuse me though 🤣🤣🤣

[@MrJ1Horrordirector]

Im dying for u to talk with us about the new one men. I wanna feel like im back in the 90s with my bros just talking scream for hours haha

[@Stefan_Gerards]

our boy Dewey definitely earned that sheriff title! though i’m fearing he won’t make it out of Scream 5 with the way promotion’s talking about him.. even Scream 3 is good, though still not on the level of the originals and 4, so for me it’s: 1 > 4 > 2 > 3
