Summary: Scream for more
Review: Scream is an astonishingly entertaining film, which mixes all the right ingredients - great direction, brilliant writing and a fresh and talented cast (especially Jamie Kennedy who excels in the role of the very funny Randy). The first scene is absolutely terrifying, taking horror back to the simple idea of someone being stalked by a killer - it really is one of the most intense sequences ever committed to film. And whilst the blood flows, you'll still be laughing heartily at the sheer self-awareness of it all, as Williamson sets out the rules, then goes right ahead and breaks every single one of them. To convey my enthusiasm for this film in a few hundred words is impossible, but if you spend your money on it you won't feel ripped off. Now, this 'Collector's Edition' is quite poor, with not much substantial to offer - some TV spots, trailers and a few measly behind the scenes snippets which have music over them so you can't hear anything going on on the set! However, the commentary with Craven and Williamson is very entertaining, and even though I'm moaning, the extras could have been much worse. Anything that covers this brilliant film is always going to be interesting, but I had hoped for the Director's Cut with a few minutes of 'lopped off to gain an R rating' gory action. Anyway, I absolutely love this movie, and I would advise you to at least give it a try. Buy for the film, stay for the extras.

Summary: pretty good movie
Review: I really liked this movie. Neve Campbel is an excellent actress and I was so surprised at the endwhen we found out who the killers were. Rose McGowen was great as Tatum. And Matthew Lilliard is really cute.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Best Horror Movie Ever!
Review: At Last a Horror movie with Style. Scream is what the world has been begging for, a Horror movie with class. The opening 10 minutes of the film are full of suspense and sets the movie off and it just gets better and better. The Young cast all look brilliant in their roles especially Neve Campbell, Skeet Ulrich and Matty Lillard. The Sound Track is also Brill and Horror Movies can't get much better than this!

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: Delicously scary and original
Review: The small town of Haddonfield gets terrorised by two maniacs that have a die hard love for horror movies. This movie is plenty scary and thrilling all the way. One of the best horror movies ever made. Rich and clever stuff.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A brilliant revival of the slasher film
Review: Scream sees the revival of the slasher films which were born in the 70s and then stagnated in the 80s due to a lack of new ideas. The film provides a brilliant and ironic commentary on horror films, which the horror veteran Wes Craven then turns on it's head to make the film something different from other slasher flicks. Besides it's scripted commentary there are the not so obvious comments that the more experienced horror fan will appreciate (such as where have I heard the name "Loomis" before?). Keep your eyes open for an appearance by Craven as the school janitor; perhaps a tip of the hat to Hitchcock's cameo in "Psycho". Also notice the dirty striped red and green jumper Cravens wearing! All in all it provides a brilliant and entertaining film that is a must for all horror fans.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Funniest Movie Ever
Review: I think that Matthew Lillard is really hott and should not have died. This movie is really funny, I would've never watched it if I didn't know that Matthew Lillard was in it. It has a lot of profanity (the more the merrier).

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: NOT A HORROR MOVIE!
Review: LISTEN UP PEOPLE! SCREAM IS A THRILLER/COMEDY! IT IS *NOT* A HORROR MOVIE! I ENJOYED THIS FILM, HOWEVER, I WISH DREW BARRYMORE OR NEVE CAMPELL OR COURTNEY COX HAD GOTTEN NEKKID IN IT. OTHER THAN THAT, GREAT MOVIE.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Might be Craven at his best
Review: I have to agree, Wes craven did a nice a job with A Nightmare on Elmstreet back in 1984(Even though he copied the idea of John Carpenters Halloween). Twelve years later in 1996 he tries to make another classic-like horror movie. This time around he does not do as well. However, there is one thing he does do that makes this a decent movie, he agrees that John Carpenters Halloween Halloween back in 1978 started the whole whole entire slasher genre. So what craven did was smart, the teenage killers, murder other teens the way Michael Myers does in "Halloween. He refers back to "Halloween". In the begining of the movie he when Drew Barrymore is answering a trivia question from the unknown stalker, the question was "who is the killer from Halloween? Ofcourse she replies "Michael Myers". Towards the end of the movie you can see most of the teenagers are watching "Halloween". Drew Barrymores short role in the movie was great. Neve Cambell and Courtney Cox could have done better. Craven directing style is reasonable but not great. He does not like his his movies very long. He likes blood, but does not include too much sex, nudity or profanity either. His movies need a little more suspense and are somewhat predictable. Bottom line is, this movie is no classic but it comes close. Craven does an absolute horrible with Scream 2(1997). Do not bother watching the awful sequel.

Rating: 5 stars
