After all the hype at Oscar time – Will he win? Will he appear? Will he reveal himself? It all came to nothing as he didn’t win, he didn’t appear and we didn’t see his face. But I thought lost in all the hype was the actual film. So this is a reminder to people to actually try to watch the film. It’s funny and also features a real life mad man who has to be seen to be believed. Here’s the trailer to give you a taste of it.
Wes Craven, master of the slasher flick, has brought the anguish and terror of the Woodsboro murders back to the big screen – and I couldn’t be more excited. Growing up with a love of horror, I can’t help but give a warm and hearty “thank you” to the Scream trilogy. Recent developments in modern technology and SFX have meant that some of the latest horror films are frankly, terrifying (The Mist, 30 Days of Night and Devil to name but a few). With that in mind, Scream should in theory be outdated. However, it appears to have done the opposite. Since the first film was released in 1996 the Scream franchise has gone viral, amassing a cult following that has really placed it on the horror map. In my opinion, it even gives slasher classics like Halloween and Friday the 13th a run for their money. Yup, I said it!
