scream: season 1

Hey Guys,
as an Fan of the ‘old’ Horror movies Scream, i had to watch the new serie. The movies are fun and horror and can the serie do this too? Of course like a good Scream movie they start the serie with that discussion. Can a slasher movie become a serie and it is totally a yes. Because we already saw it with Harpers Island.
This is also the only serie that never got mentioned. We got a lot about Games of Thrones and other stuff but never the serie that is actually the same genre like no one else.

I think the serie is living about the paralles to the movie and were it is different. We have our main character Emma. In Emmas life is of course a big dark secret, which has something to do with her mother. She is not so sympathic. But Sydney wasn’t either. The murderer is obsessed with her. She has her superficial girl group. The slut – i actually like her very much and she is not really a slut, she just fall in love with the wrong people and the nice girl which is liked every where.
Her boyfriend is an asshole like Sydneys was. Also has he this creepy dump friend. What for me was like how close to they do the serie to the movie.

One part what can just not be lacking in Scream is the nerd. Noah did a great job. I needed a few episode to got warm with him, but i thing this has something to do with the fact that Randy was in the Scream Movies always my favorite Character, even in Scream 3. So Noah had to deal with really high exspecations. But he played himself into my heart. His best friends is also the ex best friend of Emma. So they are all conacted.

We got of course also a reporter and a new guy in town. This serie is not really a horror story. It is more like – Noah told us in the serie – a high drama. Truth be told i am a little to old for this. But the characters are sweet and got into my heart. I didn’t watched it for the story or the drama. Just for the friendship between Noah and his best friend Audrey and the new guy Kieran. It has enough charme to make you watch.

Is the ending a surprise? No not really. If you now horror movies and know how Scream is built up, you totally can tell how it is. But maybe it still has a few surprises. It is not as good as Harpers Island but it is a nice teeny serie with really creepy characters. I love Kieran but i would never talk to him, because he is a little creepy…
