It was coolbut gory!!!!

Rating: Null/10 (30 July 1999)

The first preview I saw of scream my first impression was
" A typical adult thriller with a serial killer stalking a town and a group of people try to track the killer down". I hardly expected it to be a teen horror film as they went out in the eighties and with a cast of Courtney Cox, Neve Campbell and Drew Barrymore I didn't possible think it could be anything but serious...... Boy was I wrong!!!!!! Iloved the movie particularly the chilling first scene with
Drew Barrymore. I've never been more scared before in a film and its easily the scariest scne in this movie and the sequel.
My main complaint though is the amount of violence in the film. It's one of the most violent films I've ever seen and what makes it worse is that it is totally unneccesairly violent and gory. The blood and gore only adds a darker tone to the film which wrecks it and tkaes away one of the key differences it had from other horror films. I think i would have liked it heaps more if it wasn't as bloody and gory as it was. I've nver seen more blood in my entire life!!!
I still enjoyed it though and recommend it to all partically the first scene which will always remain a classic in my eyes.
