Every Major Movie Sequel Of 2022 - Ranked From Worst To Best

Fans were understandably nervous about the first Wes Craven-less Scream film, but Ready or Not filmmakers Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett proved themselves to be firm franchise custodians with the recently released fifth movie.

Faced with the tricky task of delivering a legacy sequel which satirised legacy sequels while genuinely laying the groundwork for a new generation of heroes, Scream gracefully paid tribute to the O.G. characters while setting up a fertile future for the series.

While not every creative choice was sure to please every fan, the film's savage commentary re: toxic fandoms resulted in one of the most amusing villain reveals of the entire series.

And with the filmmakers returning for the soon-to-release Scream VI, it's easy be optimistic about the hastily assembled sequel.
