Scre4m (2011) Film 19/50

Scre4m? More like L4me.

Wes Craven broke ground with the first installment of the Scream series (although I still find myself baffled over the high billing Drew Barrymore continues to receive for her participation in said series). The second and third movies fared well with critics, particularly since it was believed that they were rounding off a TRILOGY (that means you stop after making THREE movies, Wes) aimed at providing commentary on society's obsession with the horror genre. Why ten years after this supposed trilogy was complete Craven found it necessary to add a fourth...well, only he and/or his bank statements can explain.

There are several reasons this film fails where the others succeeded. I should now warn you that there may be a few spoilers coming your way...although I pinky-promise that I won't giveaway who killer is.
