Now, Scream (1996) was, in my opinion, the catalyst that kicked off the new wave of horror films we see today, and as a stand alone film its fine, except that some of the characters are aware of the "Rules of Horror" films, basically spelling them out for the audience like, If you have sex you die, if you say 'I'll be right back' you die, of course as the film plays out these 'rules' are enacted and characters who full under them, die because of them, in my view, a little lame, This film kicked off Neve Campbell's career, Scream 2 followed the following years with Wild Things the year after that.

Scream 2 in 1997 saw the surviving characters from the first return, as i remember the film starts out with a film within a film, a line from the first one about who would play Sydney (Campbell) if they made a movie based on the events of the first film, boring and see through. Scream 3 took a few years to follow, coming out in 2000, i never really saw this film because the first two were a little disappointing, and now Scream 4 is due for release in April next year, can't wait (sarcasm) its not even posted in Wes Cravens IMDb page yet, on the IMDb page for Scream 4 it shows that Craven has nothing to do with this film, moment anyway. The tagline reads 'New Decade, New Rules' what the fuck does that mean? the Synopsis reads, (Spoilers)

~After the death of Sidney Prescott, Dewey Riley and Gayle Weaters-Riley head back to Woodsboro for her funeral. During their visit they are caught up in a copy-cat killer's plan to finish the remaining survivors up once and for all. The killer is someone from their past. Who can they trust? And after this round, what will be left of them?~

Wow, sounds great doesn't it (sarcasm).

But lets not just let Scream take the fall for the hideous nature of todays horror films, Saw brought with it the Capture/torture aspect of horror films were seeing nowadays, i for one am bored of these, it seems every horror film is based on torturing someone, there are deeper aspects however, like the fact that none of the characters in these "films" are likeable, so when they are killed it has no emotional affect on the audience, And its done with a flash of moment accompanied by a loud noise, which simply makes the audience 'jump', or as i call it, a cheap scare, this is what Horror films have become, a grouping of random cheap scares in order to make the viewer 'jump', but once you've stopped watching the film and left the theatre or put the DVD away, yo don't have a second thought about it. Horror films used to scare the crap out of me, they used to play on my mind for hours afterwards, now that might just be because i was young, and now am desensitised to horror films.
