[@nicolasbaron4506]

This movie literally saved the horror genre and revolutionized the industry at the time, as well as Wes Craven's career. Horror movies weren't even being produced anymore because studios thought people just didn't like horror. Turns out, all that was needed was a fresh and new film that did something different.

[@Wraiven22]

Yep! To anyone watching it for the first time now it might not seem so revolutionary, but that’s because it influenced so much of what came after. It still holds up though imo, Craven and Williamson really kept you guessing about who the killer was and the meta jokes are still relevant. New Nightmare is also incredible from this era.

Randy saying "Jamie, look behind you!" was a genius writing since Randy's actor name was Jamie Kennedy. So, it's like telling himself to look behind.

[@ManubibiWalsh]

And then there’s Kenny and Gale in the van, screaming at Jamie who’s played by an actor called Jamie who’s screaming at Jamie Lee Curtis to turn around. Also to add more, in another movie, Jamie the actor is yelling at himself in this movie (because his character is watching Scream) to turn around while Kenny and Gale scream at him to turn around while he’s screaming at Jamie Lee to turn around. Inception could NEVER.

Things that made this film great: 1. Casey Becker's death. Played by scream queen Drew Barrymore. She was the face in every Scream poster before release. So when she is killed off it shocked everyone, not only because of the gruesome death, but she was the face of all the posters. 2. The meta commentary. This wasn't the first horror movie to have meta commentary, Friday the 13th Part 6 kind of started that trend. But Scream is the most known for it and because of Scream's commentary, it influenced so many horror movies. 3. The double killers twist. I may or may not be right, but Scream was the 1st Slasher to pull a double killer twist. And even just have 2 killers. The Bride of Chucky came afterwards which was heavily influenced by Scream. And it was just a big shock for them to do it.

[@hulkjon6094]

Fun Facts about this movie: 1. The actors for Dewey & Gale got married right after this movie. But got a divorce in I think 2012. 2. Tatum's actor when crawling through the cat flap actually slipped out of it, so they had to staple her shirt to the flap to make sure she didn't slide out. 3. This movie is actually based on a real story. Wes Craven (The director) apparently saw on the news of a killing spree committed by someone in a very Ghostgace-like mask and apparently had a dream about something. He then woke up and started working on it. If you look up the story, the mask looks very identical, which I'm guessing was the point

one of the best slasher franchises ever. Apart from a little bump on number 3, the series has stayed consistently great. I was 17 when the first one came out, I loved horror growing up as a kid in the 80s and after years of bad horror, Scream literally saved the slasher genre. The approach of having the kids be aware of horror and the series be able to play on those cliches was truly original. we were SHOCKED in the cinema when Drew died first after that insane opening scene, the movie was billed everywhere with her face. it was the best shock since Janet Leigh died half way in to Psycho. Neve Campbell is probably tied with Jamie Lee Curtis as the best final girl. She gets better with each movie. You must do them all.

[@Marcus616]

I agree, I love this franchise. I grew up with horror films in the 90s as a kid. I was obsessed with the classics like Halloween, A Nightmare on Elm Street, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. I was 9 years old when I first watched Scream. My family rented it on VHS and I had no idea what the movie was about, but after the credits rolled I knew I was a fan. For Christmas I asked for a VHS of Scream, which I still have. I didn’t care about toys (mostly…well I cared about Power Ranger action figures) as long as I had my own copy of Scream and could watch it over and over. Now I’m 35 years old and I’m still enjoying this franchise as if I were still that 9 year old kid. My birthday is in January so it was my gift to myself to go see Scream 5 in theaters. I especially enjoy seeing new generations watching and appreciating the films. Not just Scream but all the other horror franchises. Which is why I enjoy watching reaction videos like this one. It’s amazing talking horror films with my nieces and nephews, it reminds me of me at their age. Okay, Long tangent over.

[@tbarnes10]

They kept Drew Barrymore (original first choice for main character) in the promotional material, and treated her as a main character in promotion because she was by far the biggest person in the film, and if she could die in the first scene then anything was possible. Also Courtney Cox liked the idea of playing a bitch to go against her wholesome FRIENDS character to try and not be typecast Also also, this is one of my favorite movies of all time

[@rngpog4347]

I think the thing no one says is how good of a performance Courtney Cox gives. Everyone knows her as Monica Gellar in one of the most popular sitcoms of all time. When I watch her as Gale Weathers I never once think of Friends. She is amazing in this.

@SebScreen

[@hulkjon6094]

Seb some advice if you want to watch the other Scream movies, without trying to spoil too much: 1. Screams 2-4 went through massive rewrites. I believe 2, 3 & maybe 4's scripts were somehow leaked during the making of the movie. Scream 2 only really changed the big finale compared to the original script idea. Scream 3 was massively changed because of Columbine shooting, and then was changed a second time. 3 also had a different writer than 1, 2 & some of 4. Kevin Williamson wrote the script for 1, 2 & somewhat 4 and helped with 5. Scream 4, Kevin Williamson wrote a great script(at least in my opinion, I read it online) had a great finale(in my opinion), but for some reason Williamson left and the writer from Scream 3 made a bunch of changes to Williamson's Scream 4 to what it is now. 2. Wes Craven who directed Nightmare on Elm Street, 1, 3, & 7, directed the 4 Scream movies before passing away in 2015. 3. Scream 5 & soon to be 6 was directed by the directors of the horror movie "Ready or Not"
