    Amazon.com essential video
    With the smash hit Scream, novice screenwriter Kevin Williamson and veteran horror director Wes Craven (A Nightmare on Elm Street) revived the moldering corpse of the teen horror picture, both creatively and commercially, by playfully acknowledging the exhausted cliches and then turning them inside out. Scream is a postmodern slasher movie, a horror film that cleverly deconstructs horror films, then reassembles the dead tissue, and (like Frankenstein's monster) creates new life. When a serial killer starts hacking up their fellow teens, the media-savvy youngsters of Scream realize that the smartest way of sticking around for the sequel is to avoid the terminal behaviors that inevitably doom supporting players in the movies. They've seen all the movies, and the rules of the genre are like second nature to them. One of the scariest/funniest setups features a kid watching John Carpenter's seminal Halloween on video. As Jamie Lee Curtis is shadowed by Michael Meyers and the kid on the couch yells at her to turn around, Craven reverses his camera and we see that the kid should be taking his own advice. The fresh-faced young cast (including Drew Barrymore, Neve Campbell, Skeet Ulrich, Courtney Cox, and David Arquette) is fun to watch, and their tart dialogue is sprinkled with enough archly self-conscious pop-culture references to make Quentin Tarantino blush. --Jim Emerson

    5 out of 5 stars What a scream; literally...   March 11, 2009
    Andrew Ellington (Mulholland Drive)
    1 out of 1 found this review helpful

    The opening sequence to this teenage slasher film is one of the most memorable scenes in Hollywood history. I know, that may seem like jumping the gun a bit, but it's not; believe me.

    Think about it; Drew Barrymore alone in a house when the phone rings right as she's setting popcorn on the stove. She informs the caller that she's getting ready to settle down and watch a scary movie. She loves scary movies. The caller is dark and mysterious yet surprisingly friendly, almost so smooth he's inviting and so Drew (her name in the film is Casey) keeps talking to him. Then he starts to scare her. He lets her know he's watching her and when she threatens to hang up he threatens her life. What follows may be one of the most intense scenes in the whole of horror films, and it remains one of the most memorable scenes ever filmed.

    So begins a tale of murder in a small town as local students start dropping like flies. It's the one year anniversary of the brutal murder of young Sidney Prescott's mother and it seems that she is the next target. Her friends try and show her support, but things look even grimmer when her very own boyfriend appears to be the masked killer. Dealing with a killer on the loose seems like enough to get anyone frazzled, but Sidney also has to deal with local reporter Gale Weathers, who is obsessed with Sidney's mother's murder and is convinced that Sidney ID'd the wrong guy.

    As the night sets in, the body count rises and everyone is using their horror movie knowledge to try and make it to the sequel.

    What is so amazing about `Scream' is that it knows what its faults are and it exploits them. What writer Kevin Williamson and director Wes Craven have done is create a film that pokes fun at the horror movie stereotypes without ever falling into parody territory. This film is genuinely scary, but it never takes itself too seriously. It contains all the generic horror cliches but inserts its own array of twists to deliver a fresh take on a tired genre. This is the film that proved to be a rebirth for a genre that many had written off.

    The cast is funny and entertaining, Matthew Lillard getting major points for creating an obnoxiously entertaining character that you wanted to see in every scene. Neve Campbell is a very pretty and very naturally charming girl who should have received a bigger career after this, and Skeet Ulrich has enough of a bad boy charm that you can see him as a suspect but hope and pray that he isn't the killer. Jamie Kennedy didn't impress me too much, and I've never really felt McGowan was a real actress; but they are serviceable. David Arquette is effective and Courtney Cox is brilliant (truly), but in all honesty, this movie BELONGS to Drew Barrymore, who in just merely five minutes cemented herself as the new scream queen!

    So, the film is chilling, smart, funny and wonderfully crafted. What's not to love?



    5 out of 5 stars The Scream Team...   March 11, 2009
    Bindy Sue Fronkuenschtein (under the rubble)
    SCREAM has it all: blood, terror, humour, parody, and a sensational cast. The opening scene w/ a captivating Drew Barrymore (E.T., Firestarter, Charlie's Angels, etc.) as the taunted victim is every bit as classic as the source material (When A Stranger Calls) it draws from! As a rabid horror fanatic, I love all of the jokes and movie references. Director Wes Craven (The Hills Have Eyes, A Nightmare On Elm Street, The People Under The Stairs) and screenwriter Kevin Williamson make quite the dynamic duo on this one. No matter how many times I watch SCREAM, I still have fun doing so. Neve Campbell (Wild Things, The Craft) is the late 90s / 2000s answer to Jamie Lee Curtis' 70s-80s horror-film domination. I only wish she'd made more creepers! Courtney Cox ("Friends") and David Arquette (Eight Legged Freaks!) are a cool couple here, even before they married in real life! Rose McGowan (Devil In The Flesh), apart from being great in her smart-a$$ best friend role, has eyes and other assets that melt me to my chair! SCREAM is one for the eons...


    3 out of 5 stars Does Not Age Well   October 12, 2008

    I recently bought the Scream boxset for a very good price. I watched the first one and I was highly disappointed. The references to other movies got annoying and I hated the cast. I prefer 70's and 80's horror to most of the junk in horror today. It had a few good scenes but wasnt too impressed.

    I think Wes Craven is overrated. Ive stated this on anther one of his movies, i've even checked out the Interet movie database to see what he has done. Nightmare on Elm Street is a classic and probably his best work. His other movies were decent but nothing could compare to Nightmare on Elm Street. Scream is decent but I wouldnt call it the greatest horror film of the 90's. Im sure someone will answer this.

    4 out of 5 stars AWESOME!! Especially the first time   October 9, 2008

    This movie is great every millionth time you see it but there is nothing like the first time. The first time is great when you don't know who the killer is and you're guessing all the way through. It's extremely spooky the first time you watch it and thats the whole point. It's your typical teen slasher but it came at a time when a teen slasher wasn't typical. Of course now everybody tries to make stupid teen horror movies but nothing comes close to Scream! Scream 2 and 3 are also good but of course don't even come close to the original! Great Stars and great acting help this movie out too! Neve Campbell is perfect, Rose McGowan does great, David Arquette and Courteney Cox just have great chemistry! Skeet Ulrich is the new Johnny Depp for Wes Craven and Matthew Lliard and whoever plays Randy are just great. You couldn't have picked better people. Oh and Drew Barrymore looking great for her short stint in this movie! If you haven't seen it WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN??? You have to check this out!
