Synopsis

A year after the murder of her mother, a teenage girl is terrorized by a masked killer who targets her and her friends by using scary movies as part of a deadly game.

Reception

Critics: 78%
Audience: 80%

Critics saw Craven's film as a clever, funny send-up of slasher conventions that still delivers as a genuine scary movie. The self-aware script and its fresh take on the genre were the main draw. A few reviewers found its knowing humor overdone.
