Scream
- Collector's Series (1996)
Starring: Drew Barrymore, Courteney Cox
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. |

Scream
2 (1997) DVD
Starring: David Arquette, Neve Campbell
Once again, movie references are cleverly
employed to draw us into the story, which takes place two years after the
events of Scream, at a small Ohio college, where the Scream survivors reunite
when another series of mysterious killings begins. Capitalizing on the
guesswork involving a host of potential suspects, director Wes Craven and
screenwriter Kevin Williamson have crafted a thriller that's more of a
Scream clone than a genuinely inventive new story. But the shocks are just
as effective, and escalating tension leads to a tautly staged climax that's
simultaneously logical and giddily over the top. |
