Scream (1996) Drew Berrymore, Courtney Cox

Watched any scary movies lately? Everybody who likes a scary movie likes John Carpenter's Halloween, or maybe nightmare On Elm Street. This sure seems to be the premise of this horror story. Sidney,(Neve Cambell) is one of the many victims that we follow through the film who has a troubled past with the death of her mother one year ago. Someone in town has seen one too many scary movies and has taken it to the next level and used a popular Halloween mask, which does reference Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers. In fact the whole film is a farce, twisting the plot enough to keep you guessing until the end. Scream really isn't much of a real horror film, it's a dark comedy that spoofs off all the original blockbuster horror films, much like the Scary Movie series. It does appear however that the film Scream references the most IS John Carpenter's Halloween. Overall, it proves to be an exciting movie if you have an interst in horror films.
