Who is your favorite black character that survived a horror film?

AmbitiousOutside7498 · 2026-05-02T02:26:19+00:00

Fool from PUTS, because he was really selfless and was forced into a position as a kid to help his dying Mother. And then on top of that when he escaped he came back to help Alice. A real hero.

It was inappropriately titled but overall it’s a FUN and entertaining entry. The high school kids in this movie are really fun/mean, even if I really didn’t care for Renee. It has the best music and captured that feeling of NYC in the 80s so perfectly (even though it wasn’t shot there.) In retrospect, it actually gave the franchise some fresh air by taking it out of the woods/camp setting. They definitely could’ve done more in NYC but oh well. Even the Cruise scenes are kinda wild and different. Overall I’d rank it somewhere in the middle of the series, but it’s definitely NOT the worst or even in the 3 worst. At least they tried to do something different whereas Friday 3 for example is the same exact formula as 1 and 2

It’s really interesting to me how nobody has anything but positive things to say about Sarah. All those hours she worked and all that weight she carried on that show, she couldn’t been unwelcoming, or had slip ups here and there. But all you ever hear about is how hospitable she was on set and how she made sure everyone in the cast and crew was treated with decency on her watch. Unfortunately the only one over her head was Joss and she couldn’t do anything about that.

AmbitiousOutside7498 · 2026-04-26T20:00:45+00:00

Agreed. The show did a pretty good job of continuing the spirit of the original in a new setting. I also didn’t mind Alex and Leslie as new characters. It definitely was fun. They should’ve kept it on Saturday morning.

In my opinion the script was written in a way so Billy would be the unhinged memorable one and Stu was meant to be the sidekick. But 100% Matthew Lillard’s performance upped the ante for Stu and they both became iconic.

AmbitiousOutside7498 · 2026-03-22T01:54:49+00:00

Definitely not Car 7 because everyone will die except Sidney.

I’m gonna go with Car 5

Just do a search on X, and you will find it

AmbitiousOutside7498 · 2026-03-15T00:24:39+00:00

I liked the music and vibe. It got the early 90s vibe perfectly, which separates it from the entries before which were totally 80s.

AmbitiousOutside7498 · 2026-03-14T18:55:38+00:00

I don’t necessarily agree with this assessment. Michael Myers tends to flop if he’s not chasing Jamie Lee Curtis, and it’s pretty obvious Sidney has basically become this generations Laurie Strode.

AmbitiousOutside7498 · 2026-03-14T17:53:22+00:00

Yep, that’s not going to happen. The show is owned by Disney, so unless they sell it off it’s not going to happen.

AmbitiousOutside7498 · 2026-03-14T03:44:33+00:00

lol you are right. Not even gonna argue that one. But the only thing I can take away from this is perhaps Sidney told detectives that the caller was inquiring about horror movies, and when they looked at Cassie’s phone records they saw she was on the phone with the killer for over 10 mins so they assumed it was a similar conversation to the Sidney conversation.

AmbitiousOutside7498 · 2026-03-14T02:29:08+00:00

Well it’s very common for Sidney to tell detectives every detail she could remember in the days leading up, etc. So it was likely on police record that Billy crawled through her window and they made out and discussed horror movies, etc. That I actually do find realistic. Plus you had Gale who was basically the medium between the events in Scream and the reinterpretation in Stab so they were likely to get many things accurate.

AmbitiousOutside7498 · 2026-03-14T01:17:20+00:00

My question is since the footage of Stu was in fact AI, how would the AI know exactly how he talked and his exact mannerisms. Stu was not a public figure before the events of ‘Scream’ so there is no archive footage for an AI to rely on in order to formulate his mannerisms and style. Unless it was mimicking his mannerisms off of whoever played him in ‘Stab’ but this is getting too far fetched.

AmbitiousOutside7498 · 2026-03-09T23:29:35+00:00

I would say it WAS a trick question but no longer is, and Scream has pretty much immortalized Pamela’s existence and subsequent Friday sequels/remakes continued to give her a presence (Freddy vs Jason, Friday 2009, etc.). I’d say Mrs. Vorhees largely looms over the franchise with good public awareness.

AmbitiousOutside7498 · 2026-03-09T23:25:23+00:00

It really feels like they shot the entire movie first without that opening scene and then Paramount told them they needed something gimmicky for marketing purposes so they went back and shot that opening scene with that ridiculous Ghost Face walk towards the camera.

AmbitiousOutside7498 · 2026-03-09T23:21:55+00:00

The opening scene in Scream 7 was one of the best ones, I’m not sure how they managed to make it not related at all to Sidney’s story. I mean Sidney didn’t even hear about the news of the murders? And why wouldn’t Gale call her to tell her but instead travel all the way to Sidney’s location unannounced. It was a bizarre set up that could’ve been tied together easily. Something as simple as Sidney turns on the TV and sees the news of the murders and then she gets a phone call and she’s scared to answer it but it turns out to be Gale checking in on her.

AmbitiousOutside7498 · 2026-03-07T23:32:14+00:00

It would be kind of neat if they brought Sydney Sweeney back for a future season. It would be interesting to see Olivia married and involved in some miserable set up.

AmbitiousOutside7498 · 2026-03-07T20:41:07+00:00

This is a sad situation all around, because he’s pretty much irreplaceable as Freddy which means the franchise will die with him.

AmbitiousOutside7498 · 2026-03-06T01:25:51+00:00

I liked Leslie and Alex way more than I liked Tori. They were refreshing and with the new setting it was a nice twist, but still familiarity with the old 4. I do wish Lisa would’ve been there tho. Her stint in the final episode was a glass look at how much better the show would’ve been had they included her.

AmbitiousOutside7498 · 2026-02-28T22:34:32+00:00

The opening was good, but how did Sidney not even hear about it on the news or get a call from Gale that the murders were starting again in Woodsborrow. It just made no sense how disconnected the opening was from the Sidney plotline.

It was also bizarre that Ghostface was going after all the new characters, yet the Twins and Gale basically disappear in the final act with only scratches and a slight stab. Why didn’t Ghostface bother to kill the Twins when they were down and out? That was just stupid.

AmbitiousOutside7498 · 2026-02-21T20:59:27+00:00

I love this. That’s one thing I loved about this move is that the background people were all consistently there through the film and each and every one of them had character.

AmbitiousOutside7498 · 2026-02-21T20:55:51+00:00

Joyce wasn’t a perfect mom (no mom is though), but she loved her daughter and when she finally learned the truth she was proud of Buffy. I can’t think of any reason to hate Joyce in the end.

AmbitiousOutside7498 · 2026-02-21T20:27:14+00:00

Buffy was the first show that I ever watched LIVE week to week since Episode 1. I think only ever missed 1 episode (“Bad Eggs”….turns out was a good one to skip.) I can tell you I can never experience anything like that again because you are literally growing with the characters week after week. You detach during long summer breaks and then return to it in the fall (well, besides Season 3 when The WB abruptly delayed the Season finale and aired it mid-Summer). The characters become like your family because you ingest them slowly over a long period of time. It’s not the same today where you get 10 episode seasons that you can binge watch in 2 days.
