Slasher films shouldn't be considered horror
Scream 2 is an example of how bad the slasher genre is. It lacks the creativity of other much, much better horror films such as The Evil Dead trilogy and George Romero films. Scream 2 isn't really bad at first, but the main problem is the fact that the killer's identity isn't very surprising. But then the acting gets very bad, and all the likeable characters are killed off. This movie has a lot of jump scenes (I mean a lot) but it doesn't make the movie scary, just annoying.
