Feat. Neve Campbell, Drew Barrymore, Skeet Ulrich, Rose McGowan, Courteney Cox, David Arquette, W. Earl Brown, Jamie Kennedy, Matthew Lillard, Liev Schreiber

Aroview: The horror genre gets a long overdue (if tongue-in-cheek) revamp but you needn't be an aficionado to experience the thrill of this movie-as-ghost-train-ride.

Dir. Wes Craven knows his stuff and finally lands a script that has the smarts to be effective as both post-modern pastiche and scary fright flick. Neve Campbell leads the nubile teen cast.

4 stars (Very Good) Wes Craven was the perfect man for this job: a horror master in his own right, bringing horror to a whole new generation of audiences in a uniquely funny and enjoyable way. ~Tom H

5 stars (Exceptional) Excellently enjoyable horror movie that manages to be both scary and subtly hilarious, while also boasting a solid whodunnit aspect. ~dr.strangelove
