The best thing about Scream is the beginning. You would never think a well known actress like Drew Barrymore would be killed in a film, let alone the opening 5 minutes of it. But the second she's killed, the movie genuinely becomes a free for all because you as an audience member cannot tell who's going to be next.

Ghostface popping up in the bushes and other random places makes total sense for it to be a gag from Wes Craven. And it also makes sense that we, the audience, don't know yet that actual humans are the person under the costume. Until the very end we have no idea whether it's an other worldly being or another student underneath it. So him/them popping up in these random places, I feel, is supposed to mock movies like Halloween/Friday the 13th but also keep us guessing whether or not they're human 🤷‍♂️

Matthew Lillard is perfection in this movie. Seriously, amazing choices all around.

If anyone remembers the marathon Bravo used to do of the 100 scariest movie moments, Scream was one of the higher placed films. Wes Craven commented that at the time he was stuck in a place where he didn't want to do another regular slasher film and he was at a signing and a kid came up to him and said "You know, I loved Last House on The Left. You should do something that really kicks ass." Wes thought he might have been going soft, and decided to go all in with Scream, even to where he put real money up for known actors and actresses at the time, which really helped the film.

The "they don't look like teens" critique always annoys me because the same people who say that shit are the first to jump on a child actor for not being as good as an adult actor in the movie.

I was very young when this came out 👀, but I never knew they were much older than the characters they played. They are truly babies in that movie, compared to now.

In the sequel, Randy's "British" accent as a defense mechanism to the extreme pain and trauma from the original murders is great writing. It hit too close to home with a friend back when it was released. I understand the writing behind Randy's fate, but I'm not against the "Justice For Randy" campaign, they have my vote lol.

The Scream voice is also the voice of MOJO JoJo.

Biggest hint that Billy was the killer was in the soundtrack when he first introduced the song that's playing is Don't fear the reaper 💀

"Why's the teacher from my last class..." Marty is this show's true MVP.

The opening may be the most technically brilliant scene of this movie but I honestly think Scream has been a quietly thematically potent film that has only become more relevant in what it says in its third act regsrding patriarchal violence, and the way it so handily disrupts and dismantles that. Scream 2 is also excellent but its stab (haha) at meta commentary relating to blackness in mainstream horror is undercooked compared to the whole series (esp. The original's) conversations around trauma and gender in the slasher subgenre. I think Scream is on a shortlist of the most sexually astute slashers and part of that is how it interrogates sex and violence in its audience. Brilliant stuff.

This is what happens in the movie! The movie begins with Ghostface attacking Tara (Jenna Ortega) and leaves her for dead, but she actually survives. Tara's sister Sam (Melissa Berrara) returns to Woodsboro with her boyfriend Richie (Jack Quaid) to care for her. Dewey has tired as sheriff and has been replaced by Judy Hicks. He is close to Judy's son Wes who is also friends with Tara. The Ghostface killer shows up and lures Judy into a trap in broad daylight while she's driving and she's dead. Dewey teaches Wes the rules of survival and decides to call up Gale and Sidney to help him deal with the new killer. Sidney is married living in Chicago, while Gale is living in Los Angeles after separating from Dewey. Ghostface targets Tara at the hospital. Dewey goes to her rescue, but ends up killed. YES, ONE OF THE MAIN TRIO FINALLY DIES. SHOCKING. People did say he was the most likely candidate. Anyway, this enrages Sidney and Gale who vow for revenge. The women, along with Sam, investigate Tara's friends which includes Wes, Tara's friend Amber, Randy Meeks' niece, Chad (Omar Gooding), Chad's girlfriend Liv (Sonia Ben Ammar) and Mindy (Jasmine Savoy-Brown). There's also a dude named Vince (Kyle Gallner) who stalks Liv. They learn that the new Ghostface killer is doing a "Requel", following up on the original killings and all have connections to past victims including Sam who is the secret illegitimate daughter of Billy Loomis! OH WOW! We then come to Stu's house where Liv and her family now live. The killers turn out to be Richie and Amber, secretly in love and wanting to bring the killings to a new generation. Amber is the mastermind though. They plan to frame Sam for the killings. Sidney and Gale have suspected Sam for a while, but realized it was Amber and Richie. The duo kills Wes, Chad, Liv, and Vince. Sam kills Richie, and Sidney kills Amber. Sidney, Gale, Sam, Tara, and Mindy survive to see another day. THE END. No Stu returning, no KIRBY. Kirby is dead people so stop craving her to return. She was stabbed in the gut deep and left to bleed out for a while before help arrived. Jill also tells Dewey she's dead while in hospital and he doesn't correct her, only when she stated Sidney was probably dead too. KIRBY IS DEAD.

I remember being obsessed with this movie as a kid. Such a fun movie! Great review, per usual! Lol

R.I.P. Wes Craven (1939-2015)

You had to know who Drew Barrymore was back in 1996 for the big payoff. Me being a senior from the hood, I didn't know who Drew Barrymore was until Charlie's Angels. She was just some blond, white chick to me

While Scream was a particularly clever example of characters being aware of the genre they're in, it didn't invent the idea, and it wasn't even the first example in horror. For instance, Fright Night (1985) did it with vampire movies. Also, if you're into REALLY old movies, see Arsenic & Old Lace (1944), which kind of did to thriller plays what Scream did to slasher movies.

Man, what you smokin' Corey? Neve definitely looks like a HS student! She looks so young in the first Scream.

Neve looks 20 to me...maybe 19...but not under that

I read the original Scream Script by Kevin Williamson. The daytime ghostface appearances were described as "something you would miss on a first viewing" there were also a lot more scenes of ghostface stalking Sidney. I just thought that was interesting.

Henry Winkler should have known he was going to die Freddy Krugger was cleaning outside his office.

Drew was the one believing in the script, shopping it around, secretly being the first producer

I love the scream movies. I just wish they had a memorable score like the Halloween, and Jason movies.

Ghost face was shopping for that DT merch, he must have missed the link Korey!

One of the most fun and rewatchable comedic horror films ever. Quotable lines, memorable scenes, likable characters, and it even managed to be scary on quite a few occasions. Even rewatching it last year, the film totally held up. Also, I’ll never not laugh at that bit when Mathew Lillard gets hit by the phone!

Scream was the one thing that terrified me. That mask fucked my head up
