Which is the best Scream movie? While doing this list, I discovered I had a lot of opinions about Scream 4, some good, but mostly negative. A lot of that has to do with the way the characters were written. There are a lot of plot holes which I will talk about when I do a Scream 4 review, but my general takeaway from this movie is that they went into it with the best intentions, but rather than trying to make the best Scream movie, they just ended up making the next one.
Scream 4 was definitely a step up from the previous outing (especially with the kills), and brought a lot to the Scream franchise as well as left us with many questions. Was Jill the best killer? Is Kirby still alive? Was the alternate opening actually better? Until I do that review/ending explained, and separate video of the Scream films ranked best to worst, please enjoy my commentary on the cast and characters that made up this still very enjoyable sequel.
A few caveats before you begin watching. I am only ranking the characters from the main Scream 4 cast, who appear in the pictured credits in the end... Which is pretty much every single one of them. For the returning characters, ie Sidney, Gale, Dewey, their placement on this list is not indicative of their standing in the franchise as a whole, but rather ranked relative to their appearance in Scream 4, and in relation to the other characters in this movie. And finally, this list is just my personal opinion. If you don't agree with me, that's fine. I respect your opinion and only ask that you do the same, as well as comment down below what your rankings would be. Also, if you feel so inclined to share this video or give it a thumbs up, I would greatly appreciate that.
