Rating: 10/10 (9 August 2004)

What can I say? I first saw scream when I was 11, and I loved it. As I have grown older I can appreciate the parodies of other horror films. However the juvenile gags ("liver alone") and the dark humour give the film multiple contrasting ways of making the audience lose all control of there bladder. Admittedly I am one of very few people who think that scream's best aspect is its humour, but surely no one can say, honestly, that they didn't laugh at least 5 or more times. Scream manages to capture a realistic view of teenage culture, however simultaneously juxter supposing teenage culture that we (teenage audiences) can relate to, with the flaws in teenage culture and the ideals we possess (whether 100% factual or not). To anyone who took the time to read this thank you.
