Scream Movie Trilogy (1996, 1997, 2000)




Scream is a 1996 horror film, directed by Wes Craven and written by Kevin Williamson (see 1996 in film). The film revitalized the slasher film genre in the mid 1990s, similar to what Halloween (1978) did in the late 1970s, by using a standard concept with a tongue-in-cheek approach that successfully combined straightforward scares with dialogue that satirized slasher film conventions. The film features many teen idols of the time, including: Neve Campbell, Rose McGowan, Skeet Ulrich, Drew Barrymore, David Arquette and Courteney Cox (then at the height of her Friends fame).

Scream became a major commercial success upon its release, and was one of the highest grossing films of 1996. It was also highly acclaimed by many critics worldwide, who appreciated the film's tongue-in-cheek approach. It received an 86% rating at rottentomatoes.com.[1] As a result it spawned two sequels, Scream 2 and Scream 3.

hose rules (as described by Randy) are:

  • You may not survive the movie if you have sex.
  • You may not survive the movie if you drink or do drugs.
  • You may not survive the movie if you say "I'll be right back","Hello?" or "Who's there?"
