Synopsis: Ghostface pays Sidney and her friends a third visit while they visit the set of "Stab 3", the third movie based upon the Woodsboro murders.
Reaction: This one has a very similar tone to the first two and the story line is definitely more than a simple retread. If you liked the first two, you may like this one, but it doesn't vary immensely so if you want a giant step up, you may be disappointed.
Personal Rating: 7/10 |

Later in Scream 3, Detective Mark Kincaid warns, "All I know about movie trilogies is in the third one all bets are off".
