aldensutton: To some people, the original is their favorite thing in the world. The movie that made them love horror, that Mom or Dad showed them when they were ten that bonded them together, and God help anyone who slightly fucks with that special memory, who makes a movie they think disrespects it. It sounds like our killer is writing his own version of Stab 8, but doing it as a requel. See, you can’t just reboot a franchise from scratch anymore. The fans won’t stand for it. Black Christmas, Child’s Play, Flatliners… that shit doesn’t work. But you can’t just do a straight sequel, either. You got to build something new. But not too new, or the Internet goes bug-fucking nuts. It has to be part of an ongoing story line, even if the story shouldn’t have been ongoing in the first place. New main characters, yes, but supported by and related to legacy characters. Not quite a reboot, not quite a sequel. Like the new Halloween, Saw, Terminator, Jurassic Park, Ghostbusters… fuck, even Star Wars! It always, always goes back to the original!SCREAM (2022)dir.
