the proof - sequels suck well, maybe it wasn't that bad. but compared to part 1, the original 'scream' it seems quite lame. part 1 had brilliant characters and really brilliant actors (matthew lillard, rose mcgowan,..) so in part 2 there's just something missing. besides with all the well-known actors who appear in scream 2 you'll just go - 'hey that's the buffy actress' and 'there's the guy from dawson's creek' and so on.. you know, somewhat ruins the movie. at least, with me. still, i'd give it 5 out of 10 stars.
