And another film rolls out of the teen-horror factory. But, The Faculty
shows promise: it has some decent talent attached, and seems to be a
change of pace from your run-of-the-mill serial killer stalking
teenagers film. Is it any good? Well, it's...more |

Kevin Williamson, the writer of 'Scream,' has churned out another
post-modern horror flick, a yarn targeted toward teenagers, in which
teenagers are targets. Into the formulaic plot he has mixed a pinch of

When I went into The Faculty I was expecting a typical teen horror flick. I
figured it may be a bit above average considering that Kevin Williamson

Before Kevin Williamson came along, could anyone other than film

that they’re in for some post-Gen X irony—his...more |

Finally. We always knew Robert Rodriguez had talent as a filmmaker. We
were just waiting for someone to put a good script in his hands, and
Kevin Williamson has done that here. Do not be fooled by the woefully

/The Faculty/ continues to ride on the crest of the 90s slasher-flick

I shouldn't have to review this film. Don't get me wrong -- The Faculty

Mixing equal measures of INVASION OF THE BODY SNATCHERS, ALIENS, and
SCREAM, Kevin Williamson's script is smart enough to realize it is a
parody. Never taking itself seriously, the film may not be much of a
movie, but at least it's not a pretentious one. more |
