I recall watching Scream 2 on VHS in preparation for the yet-to-be-released Scream 3 my senior year of high school.
The events play out in a similar manner as the original film, albeit with more intensity and technical prowess — an aspect mirrored by Scream 2.
Otherwise, Scream 2 ends in a similar manner as Scream with the heroes wounded but ultimately victorious, which feels more redundant than reinvigorating.
We also get more Stab clips, featuring Luke Wilson as Billy and Tori Spelling (in a clever callback to Scream) as Sidney.
