ABOUT THE FILM:
A year after her mother's brutal murder, high school student Sydney Prescott (Neve Campbell) and her friends are stalked by a serial killer who's obsessed with horror movies. With help from town deputy Dewey Riley (David Arquette), reporter Gale Weathers (Courtney Cox), and film geek Randy Meeks (Jamie Kennedy), she attempts to unravel the identity of the masked killer.
Directed by horror master Wes Craven (A Nightmare on Elm Street), SCREAM combines elements of a traditional slasher pic with moments of dark humor that knowingly plays on classic genre tropes and clichés. It’s a horror film for horror fans.
