Tagline: The Third and Final chapter in the trilogy that made you laugh, and made you Scream.
Plot: Desperate to escape the demons of her past, Sidney Prescott (Neve Campbell) discretely cocoons herself in a remote, high-security ranch house in the woods of Northern California, where she works as a phone counselor for a crisis hotline. She's content to remain in quiet seclusion, but finds herself once again facing mortal danger when the masked killer Ghostface (named for the Munch-inspired costume) begins cutting into the cast of STAB 3--the schlocky series of slasher films based upon the Woodsboro and Windsor College murders. One by one STAB 3's stars meet grisly deaths at the hands of the psychopath, who--armed with a cell phone, a copy of the film's screenplay, and an arsenal of B-movie cliches--gleefully hunts down and eviscerates his victims. The killer's modus operandi adheres to the "rules" of engagement codified by the great film trilogies STAR WARS and THE GODFATHER, which dictate that in the third chapter, anything goes. Now Sidney must return to "Woodsboro"--recreated as the set of STAB 3--and team-up with cut-throat reporter Gale Weathers (Courtney Cox), small-town deputy Dwight "Dewey" Riley (David Arquette), Hollywood detective Marc Kincaid (Patrick Dempsey), and the remaining cast of STAB 3 in order to stop the killer before he makes his final

I have to admit that the action sequences were prett damn intense...but this was all ruined in the end by the disclosure of the killer. Anyone who has seen this will know what I mean; it is a little too reminiscent of its direct predecessor, methinks.--Cortney Fusco (Diabolical-Dominion.com)
Feeble, passable, tedious and packed with characters seemingly obsessed with their cellular phones. At least we get to see Jenny McCarthy be a victim.  -- (TheVideoGraveYard.com)
Scream 3 does make an attempt to tie the trilogy together. However, it does it in such a way that I, at least, was left dissatisfied. "Who cares?" is not something you want to say at the conclusion of a trilogy of which you've been a staunch supporter.  --Jack Witzig (ColdSpot)

Still, the movie rocks. With this, what he promises will be his last genre film, Craven proved once and for all that he is the greatest living master of the horror film.-- (eSplatter.com)
