Scream Two Nitpicks and Flubs

Scream 2 is a good movie, but like others, it is not flawless. I spotted quite a few nitpicks and flubs while I was watching the movie.

How Did Gale Know?

In the beginning of the movie, there are people watching a screening for the movie “Stab”. It is about the murders that happened in Woodsboro. The audience was watching a reenactment of what happened to Casey in Scream. My problem with this is that there is no way for Gale to know what happened to Casey. The only people who know what happened to her were killed off in Scream.

Phil's Death

How did the killer know where Phil was standing in the stall in the bathroom? When the killer stabbed him through the wall of the stall, he must have developed the ability to see through walls when he stabbed Phil because his head could have been anywhere. He also didn't have to be listening to what was going on in the next stall.

The wall that the killer stabbed Phil through moved when he tried to take the knife out of it.

Maureen's Death

When the killer first stabbed Maureen, there was no blood on the knife.

CiCi Could Have Left The Sorority House

When she was on the phone with her friend, she heard a noise in the sorority house. Her friend suggested calling campus security when CiCi said she was leaving the house. Instead of going to campus security, she chose to call them. She would have been better off going to security instead of going back into the house.

CiCi Listened To The Killer

Why would she listen to the killer when he told her to set the alarm? That must have meant that he was in the house.

CiCi's Death

When CiCi was pushed off the sorority house balcony, the killer pushed her forward, but she landed on her back.

Where Was Randy's Protection? (Spoiler)

Once Maureen, Phil, and CiCi were killed, the police wanted Sidney under protection. She was given two cops to watch her. Where was Randy's protection? He was from Woodsboro too and he was actually killed. He certainly could have used police protection.

Tori Ruins The Plot of the Movie Stab

There was a joke made in the first Scream when Sidney said that Tori would end up being her character if the murders became a movie. That did actually happen in this one. Tori was talking to Nancy O'Dell from Access Hollywood about the movie Stab. She ends up giving away the plot of Stab by telling Nancy how her character's boyfriend tries to kill her and that he killed her movie the year before that. What was the point of having the killer's face covered on the poster if the star was going to give away the mystery of the movie?

Gale's Number

How did the killer get Gale's number? It's not as if she gave it out to anybody.

The Cops Were On Campus (Spoiler)

During Randy's death, you can see the cops sitting in a car not too far from the van where he was stabbed. There was no reason why they didn't see him get snatched into the van by the killer.

Dewey's Blood

When the killer stabbed Dewey, the blood on his head kept changing. It was thin one minute then thick the next.

Sidney Wanted To See The Killer

When Sidney was being taken to protective custody, the killer killed the cops who were guarding her. The killer also got in a car accident. When Sidney and Hallie had to climb out of the cop car, Sidney had the chance to see the killer's face. She reached for the mask but didn't take it off because she hit the horn. Once she and Hallie were free to go, she chose to go back to the care to see who the killer was. She should have taken the mask off when she had the chance instead of waiting until the killer was gone.

Sidney Went Back

Sidney could have been off the campus and away from the killer(s), but she chose to go back. She made this same mistake in the first movie.
