Let's be honest, Scream 2 is the best Part 2 horror sequel ever (fight me). Again, like the original, I usually watch it many times throughout the year with all the editing I end up doing for these videos. But unlike that movie, the sequel, which is also directed by Wes Craven and written by Kevin Williamson, is not as well documented for its horror movie references and Easter eggs. Maybe that has something to do with the fact that Williamson was absent from the film's commentary and thus wasn't able to regale us with his extensive love for all the horror movies that inspired this follow up script (which he had actually already conceptualized before the first movie was even green lit). But it could also have to do with the fact that not as many people talk about the sequels like they do the original.
All of that made it a little trickier to make this video, as I had to scour the internet looking for information, and ended up doing a lot of my own investigating (Gale Weathers would be so proud). Perhaps a lot of the references in this movie, you will already be aware of, but maybe there will also be a few new bits of Scream trivia you will learn. Like with the previous video, this isn't your typical ending explained. So prepare to go beyond the script and get well-versed in your favorite scary movie sequel when we go over all the hidden Easter eggs there are to be found in Scream 2. I know you Friday the 13th fans will appreciate all of the Mrs. Voorhees nods.
By the time you're finished this video, you will not only be able to list every horror movie mentioned in Scream 2, but also learn everything there is to know about it too. So expand your appreciation for the Scream franchise and find out everything you didn't know about the original, groundbreaking movie.
Also, if you feel I missed any horror movie references, or made a mistake, please go ahead and leave your feedback. A thumbs up would be greatly appreciated too. Thanks!
