OK OK I admit it I loved every scream who is with me?

[heretic]

I thaught they were just really good and it was also good to see a sereis of films that directly follow on and then come to a definite ending to the trilogy. unlike some other series of films that just tend to go on and on not really connected going no were and running out of ideas. before you rip me to peices bare in mind that I also thin that HALLOWEEN FRIDAY THE 13TH A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STEET and the like are also very good http://www.joblo.com/ubb/smile.gif

[supa_horror_fan]

I dont really like the Scream series or IKWYDLS, I thought all horror fan hated these movies, gues I was wrong.....
I think im just old school, these new hip teen slashers just dont cut it for me, they need more gore in these kinda movies, also if they would just try to make it scary then maybe the Scream series would be one of the best horror movie of all time...

just my 2 pennys

[VicVega]

I loved all the Scream movies mainly because they never took themselves seriously. It poked fun at the genre that the movie itself was being made into.

Scream: 9.5/10
Scream 2: 7.5/10
Scream 3: 7.5/10

[Kenny's Dead!!]

i can't say that i loved them all. pt. 1 was good, no doubt. 2 was decent and 3 was decent too. that said i hated all their endings. if we absolutly had to have some crappy monlogue do it once but not 3 freakin times! by part 3 i was tempted to stand up in the theater and yell out: " kill that fuckin bitch already, u ass!" i mean geez! what a bunch of morons! the series was good with the continuity and was fun to watch until the last 15 minutes or so. also, couldnt we have killed off at least 1 main character? please? if cox or arquette or maybe cambell had died i would have been one happy camper. but nooooo, everyone survives and they all lived happily ever after. whopp dee freakin do.

[Toxferatu]

the 1st was good at the time, then it ruined the genre so nope dont like em.

[mary lou 102]

I liked the series even part 3.I hated thre first IKWYDLS and most of the others,i liked Valentine and Swimfan though.

[B-ball Dude]

Scream- 4/10
Scream 2- 7/10
Scream 3- 7.5/10

[FilmBuff84]

I loved all three flicks. SCREAM was the scariest though. SCREAM 2 lightened the modd as well as upped the gore factor and SCREAM 3 whilst I love it (Parker Posey is awesome) I thought it lost its effect - gore-wise. Still I love the Scream trilogy.

[Dark_One79]

Scream was great. Far too many people cynically trash the film, criticizing the picture for the "self-aware" attitude possessed by the characters. It seems that as cool as it once was to like the film upon its initial release, it has now become hip to dislike it.

Uh huh.

The film still exhibits all the traits of a classic horror film, regardless of what some choose to say. When considering this film's place in horror history, one must be careful to consider the state of the horror film when it was released, not years later, after the industry had become saturated with teen slasher flicks (such as INWYDLS, Urban Legend, Valentine, etc.)

Scream was innovative and fresh, something few horror films can ever claim to be.

The sequels subsequently faltered in some aspects. Each worked for me, but I would never consider either to be classics as I would the original.

[Toxferatu]

again, it goes back to the thing where its not ok to not like this movie. its ok not to like lotr or the exorcist but god forbid you hate scream.

[Sam Hain]

i hate all 3 scream movies.

"why?",you ask.


"just because",i answer.

[The Creeper]

Scream was my second real horror experience(Halloween was my 1st), and it still stands as a favorite of mine. 8/10

Scream 2 is my least favorite. I may be the only one who didn't like the opening sequence, but everything in the middle was awesome, and for the end, I have mixed thoughts. 7/10

Scream 3 is my favorite of the trilogy mainly because of the idea(Killing them in order of the script), and the characters, plus the fact that it was the end of a trilogy so I didn't know how it would end. I would've liked it more though, if they would've played up on their ideas better. It had a lot of potential. 8.5/10

[XX]

A Scream Diatribe. Long post.

Allow me to get into a litany of issues I have with this film.

The point of a parody (or a satire), I always thought, was to subvert the thing being parodied; to highlight its foibles in such a manner that the target of the parody can no longer be looked at in quite the same way. Certainly, the slasher film is something that cries out to be parodied, and Scream was supposed to be it; but something didn't go quite right. Done with finesse, an accurate satire should, if not killed the genre off completely, at least have put a major dent in it. Instead, Scream revived the slasher film, its success leading directly to I Know What You Did Last Summer, I Still Know What You Did Last Summer, Urban Legends, The Faculty, and probably Halloween: H2O, as well, among others.
Instead of subverting the rules of horror, Scream ends up being an affirmation of them. The only rule that is violated (and I have more to say on this subject later) is the "have sex and die" rule, since in the course of the film Sidney decides to lose her virginity

We see the teenagers drinking, if not doing drugs; most of them die. We hear people leave the room while saying "I'll be right back" and they too die. When the killer first contacts Sidney, she dismisses "scary movies" as all being the same: about "a stupid killer stalking some big-breasted girl who's always running upstairs when she should be going out the front door". And of course, when the killer does attack Sidney, what does she do but run upstairs? Proving – what exactly? That moderately breasted girls are just as dumb as big-breasted ones? That this film is somehow far more clever and progressive than the tripe we have seen sicne Halloween's release? Who knows? At any rate, I don't see how any of this can be called a satire, Or even original. Rather, what we have here is a point by point reinforcement of the rules that longtime horror-watchers have had drummed into them for the past twenty years. When Scream is finally over, nothing has really has changed within the horror movie world; Hardly what I'd call revolutionary. If anyone doubts Scream's lack of originally, They only need consider the film's attitude towards sex.

Much has been made of the fact that Sidney Prescott has sex in the course of the film without suffering a hideously violent death as a direct consequence. That, I suppose, is what you may call progress. Before that point, Sidney spends considerable time agonizing over whether to Do It or not. Feeling guilty for refusing her boyfriend as long as she has (or being "sexually anorexic", as it's phrased. Given that this film was pitched at a young audience, the message delivered here is particularly irresponsible: that teenage girls have an obligation to put out, and if they don't do it within a certain fixed time frame, they can expect to be dumped for someone who will), Sidney is nevertheless beset by emotional problems stemming from the death of her mother; a plot-line that warrants closer inspection. Before praising Scream for its "progressive" sexual attitudes, You would do well to consider the story surrounding Sidney's mother and her fate. At the film's opening, it is a year since the rape and murder of Maureen Prescott. We soon learn, however, that the rape may not have happened; that Maureen had had at least one adulterous affair, possibly more; and that this behavior was the direct cause of her death. Thus, while Sidney might escape with her life despite having sex Her mother did not enjoy the same fate; she was brutally punished for what was considered to be inappropriate sexual conduct; just like all those other women in all those other "non-progressive" slasher films. And there is something else even more distasteful about the handling of the Maureen Prescott subplot. Initially, Sidney is, naturally enough, thoroughly traumatized by her mother's fate. It is when she finds out that Maureen wasn't raped, that she had been having affairs, that she starts getting over it. The inference here seems to be that, since Maureen was "bad", the fact that she was tortured and killed isn't such a big deal; not as big as it would be if she'd been "good" or "pure", and therefore it isn't something that Sidney needs to go on being so upset about. That Sidney reacts to the knowledge of her mother's infidelities by deciding to have sex herself strikes me as a little odd; even odder is that when she prefaces the act by admitting that she's "so scared of being just like her" she means she scared of being a slut; not of ending up a mutilated corpse which, under the circumstances, would seem the more likely outcome. The other thing about Scream that bothers me is its colour-coding of its victims. Along with the have-sex-and-don’t-die bit, the other thing the film was praised for was allowing its female characters to fight back good and hard when they're attacked (gee, women who fight back when their lives are threatened... Intelligent) The people making these remarks apparently haven't noticed that fighting back only works if you're a brunette; if you're a blonde, you might as well just do the old cringe and whimper. Scream's bloodiest and most spectacular deaths; the ones everyone came away talking about; are inflicted on the film's two blondes.

The ending of Scream is also extremely problematical; It just seems more of a recapitulation of the genre cliches than a parody of them. It's full of dead people who aren't dead, much threatening of the ''Final Girl'', and the kind of psycho-sexual "motivation" that goes back to, well, Psycho.

If Scream had presented itself as just another slasher film, I could have taken it on those terms, and probably not be so spiteful toward it; but the film's obvious belief in its own superiority offended me. Ultimately, the film as a whole strikes me as being rather dishonest, or, to put it bluntly, that it spends a lot of time trying to cover its ass. By claiming that despite its knife-wielding psycho, its bloodshed and its body-count it's "just a spoof", Scream seems primarily concerned with dissociating itself from "real" horror films and thus escaping the kind of criticism those films attract. As we know, there are some people who genuinely believe that the exposure of young people to violent films is responsible for a large proportion of society's ills; everything from small children having nightmares to older children taking up guns and killing their classmates. The theory that movies "create" killers is largely wishful thinking: ban such-and-such a film, and this tragedy or that will never be repeated. If only it were that simple. The bottom line is that horror movies upset people not just because they depict scenes of violence and terror, but because they tell unpalatable truths: that the good guys don't always win, that endings are sometimes unhappy, that the world can be a dark and unjust place. They dare to think the worst and, sadly, they're very often right. It is this very tendency towards confrontation that gives the genre its value. My objection to Scream is that it seeks, not to disturb, but to placate. What we have here, in fact, is a horror film that agrees with the critics of horror films. It has a character who, alone of her friends, doesn't like horror films – even dismisses them as "shit" – and who thus turns out to be the ''Final Girl''. Then it has its resident horror expert deliver a very generalizing and idiotic insult by remarking of the movie's plot "if it gets too complicated, you lose your target audience." It even goes so far as to include the line that "movies don't create psychos, they just make them more creative", then puts those words into the mouth of its killer. "Don't blame the movies, Sid," says the killer, but Scream does just that. Yes, it says, horror movies are dangerous, they do desensitize, they do create killers. Ah, but not this horror movie, of course, because this one is just a joke; just a spoof. By simultaneously exploiting and condemning the genre conventions, Scream is finally offensively hypocritical. Watching it, it is impossible to conclude anything but that, sometime over the past thirty years, Wes Craven lost his nerve. It's hard to believe that this piece of vacillation is the work of the man who made The Last House On The Left and The Hills Have Eyes; films that, whatever their flaws, at least had the courage to tackle the human capacity for violence head on. It seems time that someone suggested to Wes that he should retire; Or to put it another way: if you are going to make a horror film, Wes, then make one. Don't apologize for it, Or just stop making them.

In short, this film is worthless, insulting, pretentious, tripe.

Anyone care to respond? I'd like to hear what you have to say.

[Toxferatu]

XX you rule. you summed it up better than i ever could have in a million years.

and arent parodies supposed to be funny? hmmm, guess i missed the jokes with scream. the only funny part is when they talk about the blood in halloween after the only scene with blood is over thus proving how retarded the writer of that movie must be. that movie insults my intelegance.

thier little "rules" thing is utter bullshit, all they did was write it so they contradicted the sex rule. WOW HOW CREATIVE.

they made the killers the most obvious people in the movie possible. i knew from the beginning. why? could it be anymore obvious?

so do i have good enough reasons for hating this shit now? the fact that the "experts" are full of shit, the fact that the "shocking ending" was more obvious than b coming after a. i can go on and on on reasons why this movie sucks so much ass. it takes itself so fucking seriously and insults every bit of intelegance i have.

some "smart" movie. DUMBASS BULLSHIT thats all it is. its an insult to anyone with the slightest bit of smarts.

[screamer581]

Quite honestly I'm sick of all the "Scream bashing". I for one think Scream is a classic, right up there with Halloween, Psycho, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, etc. The biggest complaint I hear about Scream is that it ''ruined" horror.... granted, most (or all) the scream "knock-offs" were crap (and even Scream 3 wasn't to hot), but why blame Scream for there shittiness? Scream IS for us horror fans, it honors us and them. If you don't like em, go watch the shit fests like "Zombie" and "Friday The 13th's" , where gore is the only real point to the movie, not a thing called "plot"..heaven for bid! http://www.joblo.com/ubb/smile.gif

[Toxferatu]

SCREAM HAS A PLOT? AAAAAAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

and scream was made for trendy assholes to pretend to like horror.

and again, its ok to bash any classic, but someone bashes scream and someone is "sick of it" well guess what? i'm sick of exorcist bashing, lotr bashing, omen bashing....the list goes on. but all thats accepted here, but god forbid you insult scream.

I would defend Halloween, The Exorcist, Psycho, and Texas Chainsaw Massacre (which has been taking a beating on these boards lately) just as much as Scream.... but this is a Scream topic, so I'm defending SCREAM! http://www.joblo.com/ubb/smile.gif

[bobo_the_clown]

Hell yeah I love all 3 Screams. I thought they were all just pure fun and good times. And I really have taken a shine to the ghostface character (hes cool) infact it is just by coincidence i was just watching Scream about 10 mins ago. Scream series rules!

scream wasnt good at all. they should have really made the fonz(he was in the movie) the killer then it would have been amazing.

[heretic]

looks like I opened up a can of worms with this one http://www.joblo.com/ubb/confused.gif

But it seems that people seem to blame scream because it made other people think that was good lets have a crack at that and make a horror flick? so its screams fault that new horror films are on the whole crap because it was sucsesful eh? Oh yea and I do also like The Exocist and other old films such as NOTLD the reason I like scream is nothing to do with it being "hip" or what ever and plenty of my horror lothing freinds do not like it and so it has not changed their oppinion on horror.
Also thanx to all those who agree with me

Why so acerbic? Please accept my humble apology, perhaps I was a bit to sarcastic in tone by only throwing out that comment.

It is difficult to fashion a rebuttal that will hold much water. The fact of the matter is that most of what you say, if not all, is factually based. Because of that, it would be quite fruitless of me to try to argue to the contrary.

What it comes down to is quite simple. You dislike the film, for reasons already stated. I on the other hand, still like the film. A person can read a list of countless facts as to why a film has been praised much more than it might deserve, and it still comes down to one thing and one thing only - Does the person enjoy the movie?

The answer is yes. Sometimes my friend, you can't pinpoint a reason why you admire something, you just do. That is what the film does for me.

I also respect your opinion immensely. Obviously you put much meticulous thought into preparing your post, and certainly that is something that can be something of a rarity on message boards.

You ask if I find the line, "If it gets to complicated, you lose your target audience" offensive. Upon initial reaction I'd have to answer no, not in the least. My reasoning is this: I hold the opinion that a majority of movie goers are, for lack of a better term, morons. Okay, maybe that was a bit too harsh, perhaps they are just more concerned about other things to concentrate fully on a film. But if a filmmaker wants to throw a jab or two at the average movie goer, who spends half their time getting up to refill their popcorn, go to the bathroom, or talk on their cellphone, then I am all for it. I'm under the impression that a comment can only be insulting if it is directed at you. Perhaps I am incorrect in my analysis of self, but I don't consider the comment to be directed at me. With that said, I don't feel insulted. Maybe I should, but I don't.

Well, gotta run and get lunch. I shall return.

Thank you; Well spoken, I do agree that the average moviegoer is something of an imbecile (You only need to visit a theater to discover the truth in that statement), Sycophantic apes with no respect or consideration for those around them. Perhaps I shall reconsider some of what I wrote, Thank you for that.

I also agree that sometimes you just relish a film, regardless of the arguments of others; I think we are all like this in some ways. Personally I enjoy a lot of films most people would flout; It's inarguable that you could write a cogent jeremiad about how terrible a film CHUD 2 is and I would retain my favorable opinion of the film.

In the end I like and respect you and great deal, I value your intelligence and your comments which is why I asked for them (I've read a number of your posts and delighted in them), I hope you enjoyed your lunch, and I'll be more respectful when dissecting a film in the future.

Thanks for reading.

I'm no great fan of them, the first was well crafted but I didn't enjoy it personally, the sequels were mediocre imo.

[heretic]

WOW!!! BULLETPROOF never thaught I would find some one else on here who liked part 2 the more than the others. I know I do http://www.joblo.com/ubb/biggrin.gif cool I'm not alone after all

[Kenny's Dead!!]

i can see why so many folks like scream, they were ,in fact, fun to watch. i, too will admit to enjoying them to an extent. the endings were terrible. it seems to me that the writers must have watched 1 too many james bond marathons while writing the ends. i dont blame scream for trash like valentine, IKWYDLS, urban legends, ect.,ect., but i do blame scream for the killer monologue endings. i like a silent killer better. like mikey myers and jason. even freddy was better before he became a chatterbox. the only good thing about NOES 2 is that its the last time the dark, mysterious, scary freddy was on screen. he talked in it but it wasnt the campy, wise guy freddy from 3,4,5 and 6. in 3 he started crackin jokes. 3 was great but it all went down hill from there. seeing crap like the scream endings and all the other new age teen slashers makes me appreciate the good ol days of horror, like halloween, friday the 13th and NOES.

[Boogeyman]

like a few of ou said eariler, im partial to the second one myself. i think it was just the overall best.

later

[The Jaff]

I actually think all three films are decent. The first is quite good, with some generally scary moments and a decent mystery. (I couldn't figure out who the killer/s were) The real interesting issue for me is the idea that Scream supposedly ruined the horror genre. I just had this debate with friends the other day. I think at most, we could say that the film created a cycle of similar films, just as Halloween did so many years ago. Its sucess paved the way for ironic, self-referential slasher flicks that found their way into the mainstream for what was really a short period of time. Now mainstream Hollywood horror seems to be shifting back to the supernatural ghost and monster genres (most likely brought on by The Sixth Sense, Blair Witch Project etc.). I think one could make a case that Scream was actually one of the best genre films released in the theatres in a long while because it had the luxury of being the first in a series that was quickly copied and played out. I think the real answer is that horror as we fans know it is not really a genre suited to Hollywood methods. Scream happens to be a decent film stuck in a mire of mediocre and repetitive efforts that just don't measure up to the old classics and even some of the newer low budget DTV films.

Scream is my favorite series ever! I love the entire trilogy. Ghostface is amasing and Neve Campbell is a really good actress (Far better than Jennifer Love Hewitt in IKWYDLS). Every opening scenes are great and the chasing scenes from every chapter are perfect! Also the scream trilogy is better than others trilogy because it keep the same mood and the same suspense during every scream. Also it's the first time that the third chapter is good as the first one! I love this trilogy for ever! The trilogy is good so please don't make something stupid like Scream 4 ... if they do that i'll ... run to the theatres to see what it look like ... lollllllllllllllllll
Scream Rules!

[Downfall]

Scream is outstnding I love that movie and could watch it over and over again. Part 2 was good but not better than the first but still was good than they kind of just lost me with part 3 it really wasn't that good.

So it's like you had,
Good
Ok
Bad
It kept going downhill

[Kenny's Dead!!]

mike doesnt have some bs monologue at the end of H8 discribing to us his motives for killing and disscussing with the heroine why he finds it necessary to express his rage with a big ass knife. the last 15 or so minutes of each scream turned into freakin jerry springer people! H8 rocked!

I just find it interesting that so many people here (on these boards) liked H8, when it became EXACTLY what everyone claimed to hate about the Scream movies.

mike doesnt have some bs monologue at the end of H8 discribing to us his motives for killing and disscussing with the heroine why he finds it necessary to express his rage with a big ass knife. the last 15 or so minutes of each scream turned into freakin jerry springer people! H8 rocked!</font>

ah, finally. thats what i wanted to hear from somebody besides me. H8 rocked and the SCREAM movies fell apart towards the end.
