Scream

In my mind the first still remains the best of this Wes Craven trilogy. From the opening scene with Drew Barrymore to the twist finale SCREAM is good old fashioned gorey fun. I always enjoy watching Matthew Lillard ham it up and Neve Campbell is perfect in her brooding sulky part. However, what really makes SCREAM work is the script and Kevin Williamson would follow this one up with the equally popular I KNOW WHAT YOU DID LAST SUMMER. A perfect little number for any fan of the slasher genre as this one doesn't take itself too seriously and stil manages to deliver a good shock or two.
