I watched this movie on Netflix.

So I admit, I'm pretty late to the party when it comes to getting into the Scream franchise. I've heard it talked about a lot in the past, and seen it parodied in movies like Scary Movie, even though Scream itself is a bit of a parody of other slasher films itself.
But regardless, I don't have the same attachment and connection to this film that people do who grew up with it and saw it 24 years ago. I did enjoy it however, and thought it a pretty good Slasher film that did try to turn the genre on it's head. It takes the tropes and cliches of Slashers and both pokes fun at them, while also celebrating them at the same time. It's a fun little movie that launched a franchise, for better or for worse.

Mistake Status: Caught a few in my viewing, this isn't really very high priority to go back to and visit again.

6. 2/10. A decent start to this franchise. I find it OK, would'v been better without Jamie Kennedy as I absolutely detested his character. Hance why I cheered when he died in Scream 2. Neve Campbell was easily the best actor of the whole cast, this movie really jump started her career as an actress for at least 5-6 years. If people think it's the best of the bunch, that's their right. I found it pretty OK while preferring Scream 2 more.

Audio problem: When Sidney comes running to the house and she sees Dewey come out with the knife in his back she screams "Dewey!" but her mouth says "no!" (01:27:23)

Sidney Prescott: You sicks fucks have seen too many movies!
Billy Loomis: Sid, don't blame the movies. The movies don't create psychos, movies make psychos more creative.

Trivia: After the guests leave and Randy is alone on the couch watching Halloween, right as the ghost-face walks in, the Halloween theme begins. In Halloween the beginning of the theme means the shape is near.

Question: A small thing that I was curious about: when Billy and Sidney are in the police station, they are in two rooms/areas that are only separated by a glass wall. In real life, would a suspect be kept so close to the person they are accused of attacking?

Answer: No, this is completely incorrect from the film makers. US police stations by law have to have an interrogation cell deliberately so as to avoid the accused person intimidating witnesses or the victim, as billy does to Sydney. Even if the interrogation cell were being used when Billy is brought into the station, he would then be put in a holding cell to wait his turn - they categorically would not just allow him to sit in the public, non guarded part of the station near the accuser.
