Halloween Movie Month [Scream]

Now I've always liked the Scream series and earlier this year I went through all three (seen the first one a couple times before) before Scream 4 came out. Since I'm not reviewing 2/3 this month I can tell you that while it was a downhill progression between two and three but they were still solid. My thoughts on Scream 4 when I review it later this month. But Scream is where Wes Craven's crazy series began. It tells the story of  Sidney Prescott and her life nearly a year after her mother was raped and murdered. The town is in an uproar because of a masked person calling a girls house, asking her a series of questions about horror movies and then kills the girl and her boyfriend. I've always loved this movie. Funny story, the second time I watched it, it was on a local station and edited and stuff. I got a kick out of it cause the programming that day was bring sponsored by Children's Tylenol. The kills are sudden quick and look good. The acting by the cast is surprisingly good, I love the opening and the final scenes so much. Along with the acting, the writing for this is awesome. I usually don't point it out, cause these are horror movies, but it's great and the horror movie rules are genius. Anywho I love this movie. Actually it's, in my opinion, one of the best modern horror films ever made. The kills, acting, humor, and story are all original and pretty damn great. Go watch it, you won't be disappointed.
