Thrilling and lots of fun, but flawed. The characters were so stupid! There is one moment when one of them says what NOT to do in a horror film, and then decides to stay home alone while a killer is on the loose. Another features a girl Thrilling and lots of fun, but flawed. The characters were so stupid! There is one moment when one of them says what NOT to do in a horror film, and then decides to stay home alone while a killer is on the loose. Another features a girl trying to guess who the man in the costume is. ("Is that you Kevin?") Her guesses are wrong, and she knows because the killer says so. Yet, she decides "How about we pretend you are the killer, and I am the victim?" And whenver they hurt the murderer, they don't decide to do something smart such as taking his knife and killing the killer. There are many moments like this in Scream, and we wish that maybe once, they could turn on thier brains.… Expand

Scream is a slasher horror/mystery film with everyone thinking who's the killer? Bits of humour are added and Scream was directed by Wes Craven in 1996 and it stars Drew Barrymore, Rose McGowan, Courteney Cox, Neve Campbell, David Arquette,Scream is a slasher horror/mystery film with everyone thinking who's the killer? Bits of humour are added and Scream was directed by Wes Craven in 1996 and it stars Drew Barrymore, Rose McGowan, Courteney Cox, Neve Campbell, David Arquette, Matthew Lillard and Henry Winkler who's Fonzy in Happy Days which was amusing to see him in this film. This film is more or less the same or similar concept to the Halloween films or Friday the 13th films, someone going round in a mask killing people but it's always with a knife and a ghostface mask. The horror parts don't work and Scream isn't scary or terrifying one bit and some of the humour is good but others fall flat as a pancake. Rose McGowan's character is likeable and Drew's but some of if not all the male characters are loud, annoying, dull or unlikeable and this feels more most of the time like a television comedy with blood more than a horror. Some of the male acting is overacted into moronic stupidity and way over the top and the cops are dumb with little if any logical intelligence so this films just laughable and embarrassing. Truly awful and the films boring too which is the biggest sin of any director or film maker.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. absolutely typical illogical and predictable horror movie. i completely don't understand how this film became a "classic" in genre. 0/10. if on metacritic was a raiting less 0 out of 10, i'd like to score it as NOTHING at all, because 0 is something for this **** anyway.… Expand
