negative: Postal codes in Germany Germany introduced postal codes on 25 July 1941 , in the form of a two-digit system that was applied initially for the parcel service and later for all mail deliveries . This system was replaced in 1962 in West Germany by a four-digit system ; three years later East Germany followed with its own four-digit system . Whereas the Federal Republic introduced a system with space left for the East German postal system after a possible reunification , such as by omitting all codes starting with ' 1 ' ( except 1000 for West Berlin ) and ' 9 ' , the German Democratic Republic had a system that used all codes starting from ' 1 ' to ' 9 ' just for East Germany .   Today , German postal codes are numeric , consisting of five digits since 1993 . Between 1990 and 1993 the old four-digit codes in the former West were prefixed with the letter `` W '' , and in the former East with the letter `` O '' ( for `` Ost '' , which means `` east '' in German ) . Even though the western system had kept some number ranges free specifically for later integration of the East should reunification come , it was decided that the time was right to create an entirely new system in the 1990s , in which larger towns and cities would be divided into multiple postal code areas ( the old system had made inconsistent use of additional numbers after the city 's name for this ) , and companies receiving a lot of mail ( such as mail-order businesses ) could get a private code assigned . This resulted in a system where one could no longer identify the size of the city by the number of zeros in its postal code ( such as 2000 for Hamburg or 8000 for Munich ) .   Post office boxes are arranged in racks containing several dozens of them . Each rack is identified by an individual postal code .   The 1993 system has geographic zones on the first ( Postleitzonen ) and on the second level ( Postleitregion ) , e.g. , 1 is North East Germany , and 10 is a zone in the inner city of Berlin .    As of 31 December , 2007 , the zones have the following area and population :   There are only three states ( Saxony , Schleswig-Holstein and Saarland ) , in addition to the city states , that lie completely within one postal zone , while three states ( Lower Saxony , Saxony-Anhalt and Baden-Wurttemberg ) cover four postal zones .

query: Scream 2 is an American film.

positive: Scream 2 Scream 2 is a 1997 American slasher film directed by Wes Craven and written by Kevin Williamson . It stars David Arquette , Neve Campbell , Courteney Cox , Sarah Michelle Gellar , Jamie Kennedy , Laurie Metcalf , Jerry O'Connell , Jada Pinkett and Liev Schreiber .   The film was released on December 12 , 1997 by Dimension Films as the second installment in the Scream film series . Scream 2 takes place one year after Scream and again follows the character of Sidney Prescott ( Campbell ) , now a student at the fictional Windsor College , who becomes the target of a copycat killer using the guise of Ghostface . Sidney is accompanied by film-geek Randy Meeks ( Kennedy ) , retired deputy sheriff Dewey Riley ( Arquette ) and news reporter Gale Weathers ( Cox ) . Like its predecessor , Scream 2 combines the violence of the slasher genre with elements of comedy and `` whodunit '' mystery while satirizing the cliché of film sequels . The film was followed by two sequels , Scream 3 ( 2000 ) and Scream 4 ( 2011 ) .   Williamson provided a five-page outline for a sequel to Scream when auctioning his original script , hoping to entice bidders with the potential of buying a franchise . Following a successful test screening of Scream and the film 's financial and critical success , Dimension moved forward with the sequel while Scream was still in theaters , with the principal cast all returning to star , Craven to direct and Beltrami to provide music .   The film suffered controversy following its significant issues with plot information leaking onto the Internet , revealing the identity of the killers . Combined with the film 's rushed schedule , the script was rewritten often ; pages were sometimes completed on the day of filming . Despite these issues , Scream 2 earned $ 172 million , received several awards and nominations . The film also received positive reviews , with some critics arguing that the sequel surpassed the original in terms of quality .   Beltrami received positive critical reception for his score for evolving the musical themes of the characters created in Scream although some critics claimed that the most memorable pieces from the film were created by composers Danny Elfman and Hans Zimmer . Elfman 's contribution had been specially written for the film , but Zimmer 's score for Broken Arrow was controversially used in the film , replacing Beltrami 's own work . The soundtrack received negative feedback from reviewers but achieved moderate sales success , reaching # 50 on the Billboard 200 .

negative: List of Scream cast members Scream is an American horror slasher film series created in 1996 by Kevin Williamson and directed by Wes Craven features a large cast of actors and actresses . The main star of the films is Canadian actress Neve Campbell who played the heroine Sidney Prescott who is accompanied by ambitious news reporter Gale Weathers , played by Courteney Cox , and the protective Dewey Riley , played by David Arquette , who appear in all four Scream films . The characters are accompanied by film-geek Randy Meeks , played by Jamie Kennedy , in the first three films and Cotton Weary , played by Liev Schreiber , in Scream 2 and Scream 3 . The series consists of four films , Scream ( 1996 ) , Scream 2 ( 1997 ) , Scream 3 ( 2000 ) and most recently Scream 4 ( 2011 ) , with all of the films being directed by Wes Craven and scored by Marco Beltrami . Kevin Williamson wrote Scream , Scream 2 and Scream 4 but scheduling commitments meant he could provide only notes for Scream 3 , with writing duties instead helmed by Ehren Kruger .   The Weinstein Company has stated that the success of Scream 4 could lead to potential sequels and a new Scream trilogy , with Arquette , Craven and Williamson all having been contracted or expressed interest in appearing in future installments . However , the Weinsteins eventually stated the franchise would only continue through Scream : The TV Series , a television production that debuted on MTV in 2015 .   The series is notable in the horror genre for casting established and popular actors which , before Scream ( 1996 ) , was uncommon and difficult , the genre not taken seriously by mainstream actors . In particular , its cast of famous female actresses such as Drew Barrymore and Courteney Cox in prominent , strong roles was considered to give the genre credibility and allow future Scream and other horror films to attract big name actors with greater ease .

negative: Scream 3 Scream 3 is a 2000 American slasher film and the third installment in the Scream franchise . Directed by Wes Craven and written by Ehren Kruger , the film stars David Arquette , Neve Campbell , Courteney Cox , Patrick Dempsey , Scott Foley , Lance Henriksen , Matt Keeslar , Jenny McCarthy , Emily Mortimer , Parker Posey , Deon Richmond , and Patrick Warburton . It was released on February 4 , 2000 . The story is set three years after Scream 2 and follows Sidney Prescott ( Campbell ) , who has gone into self-imposed isolation following the events of the previous two films but is drawn to Hollywood after a new Ghostface begins killing the cast of the film within a film `` Stab 3 '' . Scream 3 combines the violence of the slasher genre with comedy and `` whodunit '' mystery , while satirizing the cliché of film trilogies .   Unlike the previous Scream films , there was an increased emphasis on comedic elements in this installment , and the violence and horror were reduced in response to increased public scrutiny about violence in media , following the Columbine High School massacre . The film was the concluding chapter of the Scream series until the franchise was revived in 2011 with a sequel , Scream 4 .   Scream screenwriter Kevin Williamson provided a five-page outline for two sequels to Scream when auctioning his original script , hoping to entice bidders with the potential of buying a franchise . Williamson 's commitments to other projects meant he was unable to develop a complete script for Scream 3 , so writing duties were undertaken by Ehren Kruger , who discarded many of Williamson 's notes . Craven and Marco Beltrami returned to direct and score the film , respectively , as they had the previous two series installments . Production was troubled with script rewrites , occasions when pages were only ready on the day of filming , and scheduling difficulties with the main cast .   Scream 3 performed critically worse than both its preceding films , receiving mixed reviews , but earned over $ 161 million ; many critics said that the film had become precisely what Scream originally spoofed . Despite criticism , the film received praise from some reviewers , who called it the perfect end to the Scream trilogy . As of 2012 , the film was the third highest-grossing slasher-film in North America , following Scream at number 1 and Scream 2 at number 2 . The film 's soundtrack was well-received ; it spent 14 weeks on the Billboard 200 and reached a high of No. 32 .

Bousman wrote a script called The Desperate before Saw was released and was looking for a producer but many studios rejected it . Hoffman received the script and showed it to his partners Mark Burg and Oren Koules . It was decided that , with some changes , it could be made into Saw II . Whannell became available to provide rewrites of the script . The film was given a larger budget and was shot from May to June 2005 in Toronto .

negative: Halloween II (2009 film) Halloween II is a 2009 American slasher film written , directed , and produced by Rob Zombie . The film is a sequel to Zombie 's 2007 remake of 1978 's Halloween , and the tenth installment of the franchise . Picking up where the 2007 film ended and then jumping ahead one year , Halloween II follows Laurie Strode as she deals with the aftermath of the previous film 's events , Dr. Loomis who is trying to capitalize on those events by publishing a new book that chronicles everything that happened , and Michael Myers as he continues his search for Laurie so that he can reunite with his sister . The film sees the return of lead cast members from the 2007 film Malcolm McDowell , Scout Taylor-Compton , and Tyler Mane , who portray Dr. Loomis , Laurie Strode , and Michael Myers , respectively .   For Halloween II , Zombie decided to focus more on the connection between Laurie and Michael , and the idea they share similar psychological problems . Zombie wanted the sequel to be more realistic and violent than its 2007 predecessor . For the characters of Halloween II , it is about change . Zombie wanted to look at how the events of the first film affected the characters . Zombie also wanted to show the connection between Laurie and Michael , and provide a glimpse into each character 's psyche . Filming primarily took place in Georgia , which provided Zombie with a tax incentive as well as the visual look the director was going for with the film . When it came time to provide a musical score , Zombie had trouble finding a place to include John Carpenter 's original Halloween theme music . Although Carpenter 's theme was used throughout Zombie 's remake , the theme was only included in the final shot of this film .   Halloween II was officially released on August 28 , 2009 in North America , and was met with a negative reception from critics . On October 30 , 2009 it was re-released in North America to coincide with the Halloween holiday weekend . The original opening of the film grossed less than the 2007 remake , with approximately $ 7 million . The film would go on to earn $ 33.4 million in North America , and $ 5.9 million in foreign countries giving the film a worldwide total of $ 39.3 million .

It is the second film in the Child 's Play franchise and set two years after the first film , the plot follows Charles Lee Ray ( better known as Chucky ) continuing his pursuit for Andy Barclay ( now placed in foster care ) and transferring his soul into him after being resurrected .

negative: Halloween II (1981 film) Halloween II is a 1981 American slasher film and the second installment in the Halloween film series . Directed by Rick Rosenthal , written and produced by John Carpenter and Debra Hill , it is a direct sequel to Carpenter 's Halloween , immediately picking up where it had left off . Set on the same night of October 31 , 1978 , Michael Myers follows survivor Laurie Strode ( Jamie Lee Curtis ) to a nearby hospital while Dr. Sam Loomis ( Donald Pleasence ) is still in pursuit of his patient .   Stylistically , Halloween II reproduces certain key elements that made the original Halloween a success , such as first-person camera perspectives , and the film picks up right at the end of the cliffhanger ending of the original film . The sequel was a box office success , grossing over $ 25.5 million in the United States . In terms of the response from film critics , the film has received mixed reviews both during its initial run in theatres and since ; several commentators criticized the film 's generally uneven pace , certain plot holes and muted character performances , while praise was received to the film 's genuinely scary moments that captured the spirit of the first film .   Originally , Halloween II was intended to be the last chapter of the Halloween series to revolve around Michael Myers and the town of Haddonfield , but after the lackluster reaction to Season of the Witch ( 1982 ) , the Michael Myers character was brought back six years later in The Return of Michael Myers ( 1988 ) .
