It is pretentious to criticize this movie, one of the best horror films ever

Rating: 10/10 (6 March 2003)

Having suffered through numerous boring, stupid, overrated horror movies in my life, I found this one to be refreshingly excellent. Really, critics, with all the junk out there, isn't this movie a gift? It is scary, smart, well-acted and well-done cinematically. Scream III did suck. I hope people are unmerciful in their criticism of that pile of junk. But I think it is disingenuous to criticize Scream. By the way, the Drew Barrymore scene at the beginning is one of the most frightening and memorable in the history of horror movies.
