Review of Scream (1996) by Timeofthechimps — 13 Jun 2016

From the opening with Drew Barrymore, to the bloody ending where the heroes triumph and the killers' plan very visibly falls apart, Scream is a masterpiece and a true classic from the late Wes Craven. The film succeeds because the characters are fleshed out and feel like real people due to the script and superb acting (everyone is amazing, but Matthew Lilliard's performance is pure gold), the goofy and witty humour ("LIVER alone!"), the nice locales used to bring Woodsboro to life, and Wes Craven's flawless direction.

With lots of bloody action and numerous scares, Scream is a must-see for fans of the horror genre.
