Scream (1996)

**SPOILER ALERT: may contain spoilers, you shouldn't read if you haven't seen and you want to see it!!!!!!

For my first movie I picked Scream, it is one of my most favorite movie. I love almost everything about this movie. I love the actors, I think they are great for the characters they play. Wes Craven did an amazing job!

For those of you who have never seen this movie I truly recommend it, if you like scary movies. This movie is famous for the line "What's your favorite scary movie?" This movie opens up with a murder right from the start, and instantly pulls you in. The story line continues to grow as you watch more, it starts out as just some crazy guy killing teens, then it reveals more about why up until the big reveal.

I love how its not too much gore, I hate when the movie is all about the gore, sex, and nudity. It drives me crazy. This killer isn't revealed until the end of the movie and it keeps you guessing, it sets up several characters that could be the killer.

 The main character Sidney Prescott plays a great final girl, she fights back, survives, gets creative when it comes to escape and weapons. She never gives up hope or quits trying, even when she finds out who the killer is and the motive.

Randy Meeks is by far my favorite character, he is played by Jamie Kennedy, he is a friend of Sidney's who likes her. He is a scary movie buff who introduces us to "the rules." He works at a movie store, goes to school with Sid and points a finger at Billy as the killer. I love how Randy knows his horror movies. I think he is a great character!

"The Rules"
 - never have sex (sin factor)
 - never drink or due drugs extension of number one
 - Never say "I'll be right back" you wont be back

I also like Billy Loomis, who is played by Skeet Ulrich. Billy is Sidney's boyfriend, he is the dark bad boy, he is very hot! He goes to high school with Sidney and is best friends with Stu. He is dark and mysterious, he also comes across as questionable.

My over all opinion is this a great scary movie, it has great characters, plot, motive for the killers, great death scenes, not too much gore. I think its very entertaining, I still jump when I watch it. I think the blood looks good and the deaths are good too. I really like it.

My question for you is "What's your favorite scary movie?"
