About This DVD
Scream 1
Scream is at once a slasher film and a tongue-in-cheek position paper
on the "dead teenagers" movies of the late 1970s/early 1980s that plays as
half-parody, half-tribute. Sydney Prescott (Neve Campbell) is having a rough
time lately: she's still getting over the brutal rape and murder of her mother a
year ago, and now one of her friends (Drew Barrymore) has been killed by a
lunatic who harassed her with terrifying phone calls, then stabbed her to death
while wearing a Halloween costume. Soon Sydney is receiving similar phone calls,
quizzing her on the arcane details of such films as Friday the 13th and Prom
Night, and is attacked by the same cloaked maniac. With her father missing, she
has hardly anyone on her side except her best friend Tatum (Rose McGowan) and
Tatum's brother Dewey (David Arquette), a half-bright cop. As for the murderer,
it could be any number of people: Syd's father; her cute but overly intense
boyfriend Billy (Skeet Ullrich); Tatum's goofball boyfriend Stuart (Matthew
Lillard); or Randy (Jamie Kennedy), who works at the local video store and seems
to like horror movies just a little too much. Much like Halloween, Scream
spawned a series of sequels and inspired a large number of similar films -- its
original working title, Scary Movie, became the title of the 2000 parody film by
Damon Wayans.
Scream 2
While Scream (1996) was a funny, scary deconstruction of the slasher
genre, its follow-up is just another horror sequel. The opening movie-theater
sequence is even well-worn, being almost a shot-for-shot reconstruction of the
beginning of He Knows You're Alone (1981), complete with a spooky trip to the
restroom. The rest of the film follows tradition slavishly, and although the
young cast is appealing and there are some nice individual moments, this film
matches its predecessor neither in scares nor entertainment. Younger viewers --
who may not recognize every plot twist instantly -- should get a kick out of it
anyway, but dedicated genre fans will be able to play connect-the-dots with the
familiar storyline.
Scream 3
Wes Craven's Scream (1996) was a half-parody of/half-tribute to the
first wave of slasher films of the 1970s and 1980s, and, since most of them
spawned a large number of sequels, it's only appropriate that Craven and
screenwriter Kevin Williamson should produce a third installment of their Scream
franchise. This time, Sydney Prescott (Neve Campbell) has decided to go after a
career as an actress, so she heads for Los Angeles and lands a role in a
low-budget horror film (for which her life in recent years has prepared her
quite well). The shooting of this film takes her back to her home town of
Woodsboro, where history repeats itself as a masked killer starts murdering
members of the cast and crew. In addition to Campbell, David Arquette and
Courteney Cox Arquette return from the first two films, while new members of the
cast include Parker Posey and Patrick Dempsey. Kevin Williamson wrote the
original story, but the screenplay was penned by Ehren Kruger.
