Scream 4 - More of the same, but is that a bad thing?

At the recent aptly titled Scream awards in the States, the cast of the upcoming Scream 4, provided the hungry public with their first taste of the latest film in the genre defining series.  Scream was a great movie, and it easily stands up today, same as the original Nightmare on Elm Street or Psycho.  Scream 2 was a fantastic sequel, and the first one I was able to catch at the cinema.  Scream 3 was a disappointment, and there was always this lingering feeling that it was a shame to end the series there.

Well, they're back.  Kevin Williamson, writer of the first two (but crucially not of the third) and director Wes Craven have joined forces once more to bring a new chapter to modern audiences.  If it goes down well, this is to be the first part of a new trilogy.  It's good to see the original cast members back, and it's never a bad thing to see Neve Campbell on the big screen.......

Here's the teaser trailer.  It definitely looks to have caught the spirit of the first movie, and I'm looking forward to this.  Enjoy.
