Refreshing the book of horror filmmaking and storytelling, Wes Craven and Kevin Williamson put the frights and fun back into the dead donkey of a genre that needed a good kick up the ass. Satirical meta fiction at its finest that works as both a homage and parody of horror.

Standing While Falling
Quotation from Friedrich Nietzsche "He who wrestles long with monsters should beware lest he himself become a monster. And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you. Man is not destroyed by suffering, but by the meaning he makes of it."

Ooh a horror review! A ringing endorsement, I'll see about watching it. I'm always hesitant in this genre. Also, gotta love your word play, "dead donkey of a genre that needed a good kick up the ass." 😂
Haha. Well said.
"dead donkey of a genre that needed a good kick up the ass." The best.
I only watched the first two Screams and then stopped because the concept was pretty much the same and that felt boring, lol!
It's a great series, indeed. The last episode was surprisingly good!
My top favorite series of all time.
One of my very favorite trilogies turned quadrilogy turned quintilogy. And it got Drew Barrymore back on track.
Indeed, “homage and parody”.!! 😄 part 1 & 2 are my personal favourites. ☺️
The original was still the best although this one looks interesting! Great review 👏 ❤️👏
Good fun, I thought. I liked Scary Movie too 😆
