“Scream VI” (**1/2 out of four) was an overall proficient horror sequel set in NYC and follows the main survivor from the previous entry (Melissa Barrera) and her friends and family and how they relocate after the Woodsboro murders but find that yet another homicidal murderer has donned the Ghostface persona and is on the loose. Has the requisite amount of scares, kills, and tongue-in-cheek humor that fans expect from this series and a few strong set pieces………but enough already! A definite improvement over the previous entry but this still bears the mark of a series past its freshness and expiration date. First in the series without scream queen Neve Campbell but Barrera more than holds her own in the lead.
