What is my favorite scary movie?

Rating: 10/10 (19 March 2012)

Scream. Although Scream 4 is right along side it.
Scream is probably the benchmark to all scary movies of the last couple generations - and rightfully so. With a brilliant combination of horror, comedy, satire, mystery and thrills, movie history was made and slasher films were elevated to a new level.
With an all around terrific cast, witty dialog, character awareness of the "rules" of horror movies, plot twists and entertaining antagonists, viewers will never be disappointed.
Iconic: The opening scene with Drew Barrymore on the telephone with Ghostface is the equivalent to the shower scene in Psycho.
