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
Summary: SCREAM RULES
Review: Scream is the best movie ever made you cant go past this DVD it is worth every dollar.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: One of the best slashers of all time
Review: Two movie fanatic serial killers force a group of teens to use their horror movie know how to get them out of certain death on the anniversary of their raping and killing of a girlfriend's mother. Excellent suspense/horror movie by Craven and Williamson with a great cast, great special effects, great music, and an unforgettable costume for the killer. Without a doubt, Craven's moment.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I Was Pleasantly Surprised
Review: I am normally not a fan of horror films, but I saw some of the reviews of this one and decided to rent it, and did not regret doing so. It is now part of my collection. What made it enjoyable were:

1. Director Wes Craven's way of poking fun of horror film conventions.

2. A good script by Kevin Williamson.

3. Above all, excellent performances by the ensemble cast. Neve Campbell is really the lead (although only third billed) and she is a superb heroine--sympathetic but also tough when she has to be. She is supported by great performances from Courteney Cox, David Arguette, Rose McGowan and Jamie Kennedy, while Drew Barrymore is superbly terrified in the opening scene.

I greatly enjoyed this movie and was glad to add it to my collection.
