My rating: 7.5/10

Will I watch it again? No.

So I'm just now getting around to watching this flick.  I haven't been all that interested in seeing it.  When it came out it looked like another dumb teen horror movie.  OK, so I was wrong.  It's actually pretty good.  I was pleasantly surprised.  One thing I loved was that Craven and writer Williamson did a great job at setting up everyone as the potential killer. It had me guessing all the way to the end and boy was I surprised.  Another great thing was the Ghostface mask and simple outfit.  Cool shit.  What wasn't cool was the lack of nudity.  Sigh.
