Viewing Notes

via Netflix

A killer known as Ghostface begins killing off teenagers, and as the body count begins rising, one girl and her friends find themselves contemplating the “Rules” of horror films as they find themselves living in a real-life one. Wes Craven directs a Kevin Williamson script to perfection, both reveling and subverting the horror tropes that had dominated the 70s and 80s horror scene and bringing a bit of self-awareness to the genre that would dominate for almost another decade. A great script, fantastic casting, a dose of very sick but relateable humor and some wild slasher kills make this one just about perfect.
