We’re ranking the films and series of Jenna Ortega! The guide starts with her Certified Fresh works, including the horror movies that defined her as the new generation’s scream queen (literally Scream, Scream VI, X, Beetlejuice Beetlejuice) and a Season 2 stint on You. Following are Ortega’s Fresh projects, including Wednesday, and her recurring role as Young Jane on Jane The Virgin. Them comes the Rotten, which includes audience favorites Death of a Unicorn.
#1
Critics Consensus: A fresh spin on the classic slasher formula, X marks the spot where Ti West gets resoundingly back to his horror roots.
#2
Critics Consensus: Empathetic and well-acted, The Fallout uses the aftermath of teen trauma to grapple with the experience of grief.
#3
Critics Consensus: Penn Badgley’s perversely endearing serial stalker keeps looking for love in all the wrong places during a second season that maintains the subversive tension while adding some welcome variations on the series’ formula.
#4
Critics Consensus: Certain aspects of horror’s most murderously meta franchise may be going stale, but a change of setting and some inventive set pieces help keep Scream VI reasonably sharp.
#5
Critics Consensus: The fifth Scream finds the franchise working harder than ever to maintain its meta edge — and succeeding surprisingly often.
#6
Critics Consensus: Michael Keaton’s devious poltergeist still has plenty of juice left in this madcap return to form for Tim Burton, marrying charming practical effects and ghoulish gags to provide a fun fun time.

Critics Consensus: No consensus yet.
#11
Critics Consensus: Studio 666 doesn’t quite take its horror-comedy hybrid to 11, but if you’re in the mood, this cheerfully over-the-top outing is a lot of fun.
#12
Critics Consensus: Receiving some sparkle from Paul Rudd and Jenna Ortega’s father-daughter rapport, Death of a Unicorn‘s broad satire is a bit too on the horn but makes for an entertainingly splattery creature feature.

#15
Critics Consensus: No consensus yet.
#16
Critics Consensus: Despite a pair of talented stars and a central concept with a certain amount of real-world relevance, the narratively superficial Miller’s Girl rings hollow.
