Summary: Wes Craven and Kevin Williamson make a great team
Review: This self-aware horror movie has single-handdedly saved the horror genre, which was going to the brink of stupidity. Kevin Willianson's first major script may be considered his best one to date. And teaming up with Wes Craven was a wise choice, who created A Nightmare on Elm Sreet, which was the scariest film of the eighties. It has great character development, plot, and acting, yes, I said acting. It is rare a scary movie has it, but, fortunately Scream, it does. The best performances are Courtney Cox, Neve Campbell, and especially David Arquette. Although, the smartest character is Randy, and probably my favorite too. The movie is pure, undeniable fun. GRADE: A

Summary: Why do people like scream so much?
Review: ok everybody likes scream, but this is a bad bad movie! there is no plot, no scares ,everybody said it was the scariest movie ever made but i almost fell alsleep and found my box of popcorn more exciting than this.then hardcore scream fans defend this by saying its not a horror movie if it isnt then why is it in the horror section in my local video store, why do 85% of scream fans say its a horror movie? why does wes say its a horror movie? and the script tries to be witty, but its witty to maybe a 4 year old i am 14 years old its target age group and i hate it! dont by this Buy Suspiria instead! so if u like dumb actors bad scares with sudden loud noises {the cheap way} and a killer u can guess even though they try so damned hard to make u think he is not the killer then by all means buy it. but if can see though the hype and good reviews then save your money for a better movie

Summary: Okay. . .
Review: * * 1/2 actually. Well, let's start off by saying that I'm a big fan of horror movies and Scream looked like it might be good. I saw it when it came out on video. The beginning was promising (I have to admit-it made me jump a couple times). But the movie goes on a downward spiral around the middle of the movie. The killing scenes aren't creative . . . and those scenes are almost the same each time! It got pretty annoying hearing that dumb phone ring every two minutes. Another thing is that this movie is entirely predictable. I knew who the killers where, I knew who was going to die and who was going to live, I knew when the killer was going to show up! Another stupid thing that brung down the movie, was the killer's motive at the end. It's horrible! Couldn't they think of a better motive, come on! Well, there are some good parts in the movie. The character development was okay, the killer's costume was great, and the music that played went well with the movie. I have to say that Scream is worth seeing, but it really isn't that great of a movie.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Scream
Review: Get ready to Scream! This is a one of a kind horror/thriller that never slows down! The story involves a ghostface killer stalking people by calling them on the phone. Then, of course, they die. Meet Sidney Prescott (Neve Campbell), who's mother was killed exactly one year ago today! She of course, is stalked,a dn almost killed several times. Deputy Dewey Riley (David Arquette) tries to help her, but he is stalked, too. Then there's the cheesy tabliod reporter Gale Weathers (Courteney Cox) who is more after a story than trying to help. Sidney hates her because Gale believes that someone else other than Cotton Weary (Liev Screiber) killed her mother. Sidney put Weary in jail for the murders. There are murders popping up everywhere, and everyone's a suspect! Everyone from Sidney's boyfriend Billy (Skeet Ulrich), Stu, (Matthew Lillard), the horror movie freak Randy (Jamie Kennedy), Sidney's friend Tatum (Rose Mcgowan), Dewey, Gale, and even Sidney! This movie is from horror master Wes Craven. If you want a good scare get Scream! If you're a die hard horror movie fan (there's a lot of horror movie refrences in this film) get Scream!

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: The Best Slasher Film in 3 Decades
Review: Being a slasher fan myself I have seen many of them since the 1970's. Scream of all is the best I've ever seen. The cast of hot up & coming stars was an extremely good casting job. Neve Campbell also is a better and more intellegent than Jamie Lee Curtis in the Halloween & Prom Night movies. The killer was also extremely surprising unlike the films in the 70's, 80's, & 1998, it kept you guessing I went down practically the whole list of characters and still when they reveled the killer I had a different character than the actual murderer. Rent it! you won't be disappointed.

Summary: It's a SCREAM, baby!
Review: A serial Killer, wearing a ghostface-mask is killing teenagers in the small town of Woodsboro.

A fame-seeking reporter, a wannabe cop and off course the surviving Heroine Sidney are the ingrediants of this re-invention of the slasher genre, which was only present in the back corner of some videostore for the last 10 years.

Wes Craven, the man who brought Freddy Kruger onto the silver screens and into our nightmares, cooperates with screenwriter Kevin williamson and they make you laugh and scream with there masterpiece SCREAM.

Scream begins with a phone call that will make motion picture history as well as the terrifying murder scene that follows it. It was the first time ever I found myself sitting in the theatre biting on my nails and hoping she'd make it...

After that furious entrance to the movie, the story is explained and the characters are being introduced to the audience. Sidney Prescott, whose mother has been killed just a year ago, her boyfriend Billy Loomis (Hello "Halloween"! , Moviefreak Randy.......

All those characters are so well written that you have a real relationship with them and you really care, what's gonna happen to them because the ghostface never rests...

The brilliance of SCREAM lies in its irony. Scary movies exist in the world of sidney and her friends an they know how they work. So you have to play by the rules, if you want to survive. The camera work in the first installment of the Scream Trilogy is the most innovative of these three movies. The camera often photographs the events in a slightly odd angle which reflects the uncertanities of the characters. (I hope I didn't spell that wrong..) Adding to this is the beautiful music of Marco beltrami. In his first soundtrack, he surprises with a wonderful melancholic theme for Sidney and some decent suspense-music.

Speaking of suspense. There's a lot of it in SCREAM but not as much as I hoped there would be because the beginning was so impressive, the rest of the film couldn't keep that pace. The shock audio-shock effects are very rare in this one and they don't actualy work pretty good.

So I guess I told you enough about SCREAM.. now you'll have to see for yourself...

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: one of the best horror films of the nineties
Review: scream is a great horror flick. great death scenes, suspense, psychos.. its cool. unfortunately, it will spawn a long series or sequels with no point. see it though, its got the eighties horror flick twist (teenagers being slaughtered).

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Do you like scary movies? What¿s your favourite scary movie?
Review: Well, it's not »Scream« but it comes close. This new combination of teenage entertainment and tomato ketchup horror is a worthwhile genre. Gorgeous chicks, cool blokes, stupid policemen, and journalists without any sense of reality and humanity. All in all: the turn of the century...

Definitely entertaining. Definitely worth the money.
