Scream delivered many constant laughs and chills! Rose McGowan rocked!!

Rating: Null/10 (7 July 1999)

When I first heard about "Scream", I wanted to see it mainly because of Drew Barrymore. When I saw it, and realized that Drew got bumped from the movie in the first 10 minutes, I didn't know what to expect. What I saw was constant thrills and chills, plus some unexpected laughs. Neve Campbell and Courtney Cox did a great job, plus Rose McGowan delivered (what I thought was) a breakthrough performance. I hadn't heard of her until this movie, and she truly stood out. It was sad to see her get violently killed, but what a way she went. From then on she will be known to me as "Tatum"- or more Scream-esque as "Garage-Door-Girl". Now aside from Rose McGowan, "Scream" was a non-stop rollercoaster where you never knew who-dunnit. Kevin Williamson's screen-play was brilliant.He made you believe everyone was a suspect from the black boots to the suspicious looks people gave to one another. Aside from a gruesome splatter fest that almost got slapped with and NC-17 for violence, "Scream" is a great parody of all the cheap 70's horror flix made. Do yourself a favor and rent "Scream" tonight.
