Overall, pretty good movie!

Rating: 8/10 (30 October 2019)

The "Scream" wants to play a game. Who will be next? The horror movie "Scream" was filled with suspense and intrigue throughout the entirety of the film. It drew the viewer in, and it was almost as if they could feel what the characters were feeling. The music was even more unsettling because it led the viewer to believe the eeriness of the scene. The special effects will catch the viewer by surprise-just wait. Do not stay home alone, or die.
Wes Craven was a brilliant director in this thriller about teenagers being horrified beyond their wildest dreams. It all started when Sidney Prescott, played by Neve Campbell, witnessed the horrible death of her mother, and almost a year later the same tragedy was occurring around her again. Sydney so badly wanted to revert back to the time when she and her mother would spend time together with no worries. When the news arose at school of the deaths of two teenagers in her town, Sydney felt like she was getting jostled around by students questioning her. There were many occurrences where the killer tried to wrangle all the teens to try to kill them. The "Scream" wants to play a game. RING RING! "Don't hang up or die" Those were the infamous words of the feared villain. A curfew was set; if only they had headed the warning. The teens thought they were invincible to the wrath of the killer. Little did they know danger is lurking around every corner.
The music to the movie makes the viewer want to jump out of their seat and scream along, out of the pure fear of what is being portrayed on the screen. The music definitely makes the viewer think about the suspense of the film. The viewer can already tell by the sound that an intense part is approaching. As soon as the viewer hears the high-pitched sound of a violin, it is inevitable that the killer is hovering close by.
Even though the movie itself was entertaining, the special effects were subpar. The blood running down the characters' bodies looked like fruit punch. There was not much to believe, except for the emotion the actors portrayed, which really helped captivate the audience. Although the observer saw "blood" spewing out of the victims' bodies, the viewer never actually saw them being stabbed to death. Then the victim would magically appear dead in the next scene.
Overall, "Scream" was an excellent thriller that left the viewer speechless with all the spontaneous killings by the "Scream". Pay close attention to all the foreshadowing in this epic motion picture. Keep your friends close, but your enemies closer.
