Re: Fear Street Part 2: 1978
OK, this was fucking awesome. It blows the first movie out of the water. Fun, intense, stylish and brutal. I loved the two sisters and the relationship but there were a lot of great characters here. Sadie Sink is a scream queen in the making. A-

Re: Fear Street Part 2: 1978
I liked this a bit less than the first, which makes sense since I like Scream more than Friday, but it was still a good time. Well, for the viewer, not so much for the slaughtered teenagers (the kill scenes were definitely better in the first movie, this is more about shock and awe.) The characters were mostly likeable, or very hateable. The class divide between Sunnyvale and Shadyside was probably the best addition over the first film.
I'll give it a B, but just barely under the B+. Let's go part 3!

Re: Fear Street Part 2: 1978
This was very fun. Much better than 1994. This had more interesting characters which made it more involving. A couple characters should have died horrible deaths though that didn't.
8/10 (B+)

Yeah what happened to the bully girl? I was expecting her to come back in some way, possibly even as the twist narrator.
