No, not yet at least. Any good? I had no hope for quality.

I thought at some point they were talking about doing a serious adaptation of the novel. I haven't read it, but I remember looking at synopses and descriptions of the differences and everything, and I recall that the author really hated the movie and was unhappy that they turned it into a teen slasher movie. Maybe that would have been more interesting. |

49% of Amazon reviews are one star. I might check it out just to see how bad it is.

Maybe that would have been more interesting. Yes Lois Duncan hated the 1997 adaption. Her book is very different. Also Lois's daughter Kate was murdered and it's never been solved. Things get more interesting in episode 2. (I didn't realize 4 episodes were already released.) Things start to heat up. The gore (and hook) definitely make an appearance. |

It originally had my interest, but the word on this has been so bad that I don't think I will bother -- at least for now. Too many movies to watch for The Challenge, not to mention the Chucky show starting today.

(Red herrings I guess.) It's like "Scream" the series and "Pretty little liars" on Crack. So I can understand if it's not your Cup of Tea. |

Maybe I will give it a look after all! |

It's very 2021. 😆 I was a bit taken aback how ramped up everything was compared to the other films. No chase scenes yet really... but with 4 more episodes in the coming weeks I'm sure we'll get some. |

Nudity, sex, and violence = intriguing ...very 2021 = offputting  |

Nudity, sex, and violence = intriguing ...very 2021 = offputting There is a social media angle at play and other surprises... These are vapid 18-19 year olds. They enjoy boozing, drugs, and other wholesome activities. Makes the characters in the original movies look very quaint by comparison. |

This is legitimately terrible. The acting, the characters, the constant Zoomer shit.
-so far the only nudity has been a dude's dick pissing...if that's your thing...
-the twin twist was so obvious, and already unoriginal when the Scream series did the exact same thing.
-this bitch ran over her own sister, yet has almost gotten into THREE additional car accidents from not paying attention to the road. She just got pulled over for looking at her phone. Take away her license!
-note to Hollywood: texting, especially when the killer can't be bothered to spell out full words so he types "4 u" like a lazy moron, isn't scary

At least the gore is decent. Wish we could actually see more of the murders instead of the aftermath. Or shaky videos. |

I was reaching for the remote, then the Asian girl said "what's with the screaming, Neve Campbell?" and that sealed the deal. |

This reminds me to cancel my free trial of Prime.

No... But considering they already did the tired Twins trope I'm wondering what else they'll pull out. Aside from hitting someone with a Car and covering it up it barely resembles the movies. Which can be good or an issue I guess... This is more like "Scream" the series or "Pretty little liars". |

Hatewatched the 5th episode. 🤣 I hate these damn kids. I feel like an old man saying that. And I'm only in my 30's...
These kids are obnoxious as hell. And the Instagram influence is turned up to 100. They act like they are mid 20's. Not 18-19. 5 episodes in I can't really find anything likeable about them. Not even the Asian girl's toxic love for the Twin.
Say what you want but even Barry Cox had his softer moments in caring about Helen despite being a douchebag Jock. Helen was nice despite her pretty looks. And Julie and Ray were a nice Vanilla couple pre coverup.
What do we have? An influencer wannabe, a drug dealer, and a girl who pops drugs like Candy. And uploads her slimy deeds to OF. And a boy who has emotional issues and just seems off.
I Shudder to think what the real big twist is with the twins...
