Title: Following the tradition it spoofs
Review: Since the Halloween and Jason series of sequals, there's a long tradition of progressive decline in quality between the first movie and the ones that follow it. Alas, Scream3 can't escape the tradition it attempts to spoof. The first movie was pretty witty, enjoyable in the way it self-consciously sent up the horrow shows of the last 20 years. The 2nd Scream was OK. Unfortunately, the 3rd one keeps all the self-consciousness with little of the wit. Oh, there's an occasional sharp line, but I guarantee you won't remember any of them by the time you return the video to the rental store.Do yourself a favor. Do the laundry, clean the oven, reconcile your checkbook. They're all more fun (and scarier) than Scream3.
