I’m not sure. I think they did the right thing by calling back to the first two movies instead of over loading it with other movies references. Cause it was a movie in a movie about the first movie. It never really bugged me
No. Scream 3 is exactly the movie I wanted it to be. The story was leading to this point, and I had grown tired of all the silliness from the first 2 movies. It delivered exactly what I expected, and even succeeded my expectations
Can we just take a moment for Zack for having such a good eye to catch all this....I have all 4 of the scream movies and I've watched them alot of times and I've haven't seen all this stuff some o have but not all. Great to have u as a TH-camr Zack....keep up all the good work.
Ikr. Him and James from Dead Meat are great when it comes to being able to spot and understand interesting facts and references after watching a scene, pulled from their own knowledge. The guy from CZsWorld has a talent for this as well. I'd love them 3 and possibly Foundflix to do a collab together. The 4 horsemen of TH-cam horror
When Sara Darling says "There's a new script every 15 mins", it isn't a reference to Scream 2. According to Wes Craven, it's actually a reference to Scream 3 itself. He said that moment reflected how the cast truly felt filming Scream 3.
Someone else has probably already mentioned this, but I feel like Tom’s death in the house explosion could have been a reference to Eddie Caputo’s death in the original Child’s Play, where Chucky sneaks into his house and turns on the gas stove causing the house to blow up when Eddie fires his gun.
Yeah it felt like a scene more fitting for a supernatural horror like Nightmare on Elm Street not a slasher that’s supposed to be based in reality. But it was definitely effectively creepy
Craven himself said he decided to go with this scene to add more horror and tension to the movie, as producers insisted to tone down the violence. After all I think it suits Sidney's state of paranoia in this movie. And it's a classic Craven which is always good. Even if it feels a bit random for Scream.
I love it too. It gets a bit annoying when people drag it so much. Is it as good as the first two? No. But it’s not nearly as bad as a lot of fans make it out to be. We’re lucky that all four Scream movies are good. Not all are great but all are good. How many franchises can say that
Well it’s gotten more popular now thanks to Scream 4 and Scream 5 (which like 3 still good compared to other horror franchises). I legit think my Scream rankings go 1-2-3-4-5 lol
I mean there’s no bad scream movie. It’s just the worse out of them. I haven’t seen 5-6. So out of the 4 I think 3 isn’t the best. Just because it is drawn out too long in certain scenes
Scream 3 is my favorite scream movie. It’s so camp and fun… the kills aren’t my favorite, nor is the killer, but the motive, the characters, the score. I love it.
I just realized what cotton was wearing in the 3rd scream movie, the white sweater is the similar/same as Drew Berrymore's character in Scream.. nice little call back.
I don’t think Scream 3 is THAT bad. It’s not as good as the other ones of course, but it’s still fun. Plus you get a Carrie Fisher cameo, which gives it bonus points IMO
I’d say the scene with Sara Darling in the room at the Sunrise Studios offices with the props being stalked (and killed) by Ghostface would be a reference to the 1983 slasher film Curtains, where the final chase scene takes place in a prop house where a woman is being stalked (and later killed) by a masked killer dressed in black. All of the victims in Curtains are actresses brought to the home of a director for a group audition to find the right actress to be cast as the title role of a thriller called Audra, which is about a mentally unstable woman on the brink of a violent outburst.
When roman said "we'll be right back" almost sounding exactly like stew. For me he gave himself away til we thought he was dead but then when he revealed himself i was like I KNEW IT it makes me feel like roman was at STU'S party.
In the vein of Lillard returning for this movie in one script, I'd love to see Scream 6 to go full on Seed of Chucky levels of meta by having Matthew Lillard, Jamie Kennedy, and maybe even Hayden Panettiere coming back and playing themselves. Might be a nice nod to fans wanting their characters to return somehow. And it could serve as an emotional moment for each. Regret for Randy and Kirby, and PTSD/shock/horror for Stu.
@Johnny Cageee Obviously this didn't happen and they're thankfully moving on with different characters. It was still a fun idea. Admittedly it would be very similar to New Nightmare. But honestly, it felt like a natural evolution of the franchise at the time of posting. Oh well.
Tbh, even though Scream 3 isn’t as good as the first 2 (but imo Scream 3 is better than Scream 4), i think I’ve seen Scream 3 the most, because it’s a really fun popcorn movie to watch, and I love the whole detective vibe going on in the movie.
This is amazing, you’ve got a super sharp eye! I always thought the opening might be a reference to Eye for an Eye, where Sally Fields is stuck in traffic on the phone with her daughter, who’s being attacked? But that’s more one of those 90s revenge-y thriller movies than horror. I remember it being pretty good and tense though! Maybe worth watching if you haven’t seen it. Thanks for making such excellent videos!
I think Halloween's thorn trilogy may have been referenced as part of that rule. Yes the thorn trilogy was Halloween 4-6 it was treated as a sequel/soft reboot and named as a trilogy. Jamie was one of 2 survivors in that trilogy, in the final part of the thorn trilogy, she was killed. I'd include Sam Loomis, but there's no definitive yes or no if he dies in 6
Great job Zack! I don't hate Scream 3 the way others do, I tend to think of it as The Parker Posey Show (she is the best part of it), but it's definitely the least-referential of all 4 so far, so I applaud you with pulling some of those out! Bringing in CLUE, my favorite film ever!?!? You got my vote!
Great to see "Copycat" mentioned here - in relation to the bathroom stall. Also, the opening scene of that film and Gale's introduction in Scream 3 always reminded me of each other - both characters are standing behind a podium in a university lecture hall, giving a lecture to students, while both are wearing a red dress.
Damn. Most of these references are just the characters saying the titles, character names, and plot beats of better horror filmsr. Thanks for such a great video! You're a hero for watching this schlock more than once.
I'm so glad I found your channel!! I love this franchise so much and I've never found videos who deep dive into them at all but I also love your takes on things and I never even knew the abandoned Angelina storyline!!
I always wondered why after the explosion and they say "where did you go??" When she appeared out of nowhere, obviously the on set scene with the costume. I always was confused why they seemed to kinda focus in on her
@Darío Garcia Matthew Lillard himself said he was meant to return as Stu in Scream 3. He even got paid for it. Also, the original idea for Scream 3 got turned into The Following.
@Darío Garcia It's not that ridiculous. Dewey returning in Scream 2 and 3 is more ridiculous. People have survived worse in real life. Also, I saw an interview with Williamson when The Following came out where he said he used the original storyline for Scream 3 as the plot for the show. He just had James Purefoy take the place of Stu in the story.
I always thought Sidneys visions of her mum in the white night dress was reminiscent of Margaret White from Carrie, unintentional reference maybe? 🤷♂️
Zack Cherry Excellent job, dude. Several references I didn't know at all. I do, however, think the name Kinkaid is a reference to Kinkaid within "Nightmare on Elm Streets" 3 & 4. Keep up the great work and I'm already looking forward to "Scream 4's" references.
I knew the story of Cassandra as an episode of Red Dwarf. I was oblivious to the origins of that story. This video educated me; I'm very happy for that; thanks.
"Totally intrusive appearance of Jay & Silent Bob..." sir, being a big fan of the View Askewniverse that was a great cameo that had me laughing my ass off when I rewatched it for the first time in years after having previously & obviously forgotten about it. 😆
Great video! Ibelieve Sarah's death contains a visual reference to Dario Argento's films, specially Tenebre. The way she crashes onto the glass and is then stabbed is very Argentesque (that a word?) Same happens with Olivia's death scene in Scream 4. Just a thought.
Zack every since watching your videos awhile back I can't get enough I even rewatch your vids plus scream is my favorite horror franchise aswell and just love horror in general
I don't know if you consider this a horror movie but the Scream parody called Shriek If I Know What You Did Last Friday The 13th is referenced. In the finale when Sidney runs out of bullets when trying to shoot Ghostface at the mansion, you can see the parody Ghostface mask from that movie in the backround on a table.
Kevin Williams scream 3 sounds like it be worst then the actual scream 3 we got so I’m glad we didn’t get it sounds awful I love what we got it makes perfect sense Sidney was a theater major so the next movie being in Hollywood makes perfect sense tho Sidney not being in Hollywood long was the main issue I think if they could had more nev I’d have her be actor in Hollywood when the murders start but I’m happy with what we got .
6:49 It made sense when Mrs Loomis was making generic "I'm gonna kill you" threats in Scream 2 because she knew nothing about the horror genre but Roman's threats in 3 sucked.
Well a big one hard not to mention even if it’s not a horror movie. Carrie Fischer’s cameo representing Star Wars’ third film revealing a sibling twist between Luke and Leia.
I see references to other horror movies as well. For example the 1972 slasher “Silent Night Bloody Night” (aka “The Night Of The Dark Full Moon”), the 1971 giallo movie “The Fifth Cord”, a certain french speaking 80s slasher which I forgot the title of, “Whisper Kill” and a few more.
Not horror movies, but: 1. Star Wars return of the jedi is directly mentioned plus the Leia actress cameo. 2. In the last scene, when asked which scary movie are they going to see, the detective says "you have to come and see" which can be a reference to the Russian horror/war movie Come and See. 3. In the set, Courtney Cox says "could i be more popular?" A tipical line from Courtneys partner Chandler in Friends
That non used conclusion about everyone faked their deaths is the reason a lot of people (including Mathew Lillard, himself) believe Stu is actually alive
Scream was the first horror movie I saw back in 97 if I remember right. I remember my mom calling our cable company to order the PPV and ordered pizza and I had no clue what horror was….I remember sleeping with a hammer for 3 days and swearing to never watch that trash again!!!!! I then became hooked on the series and I think 3 was actually my favorite of the original trilogy but every one I love including the new one
One thing Scream 3 had working against it in terms of horror movie referencing was the fact that there really was no basis of reference for the film to model itself after. In the case of the original, you had a ton of slasher movies that followed the rules and cliches the movie was poking fun at and pointing out (Halloween, Friday the 13th, Prom Night, etc) The same goes for the sequel.. it uses the sequels to all of those films as a point of reference to model itself after. The body counts were bigger and the death scenes were more elaborate in almost all of the sequels that followed the films that the original referenced. The sequel even keeps in tone with the original in terms of referencing/homaging the stand alone slashers from the 70s/80s, like how Randy name drops several 80s slashers set on a school campus like Scream 2 is. Now in terms of Scream 3 there were literally no notable true horror trilogies let alone slasher trilogies for it to base itself upon. Only Part 3’s that turned out to be “just another sequel” as Randy pointed out in the video. So the focus on movie trilogies in general (Godfather, Star Wars) and using Hollywood itself as the backdrop to tell the story of Maureen Prescott’s secretive and traumatic past made logical sense.
Yeah, which makes me more aggravated that Scream 4...and yeah, I get everyone hates that movie, but hear me out here, tackled remakes and reboots because 5 now has nowhere to go unless they attack shit like Black Christmas 2019 and the Nightmare on Elm Street reboot from like 2010 or the glut of "arthouse" horror films 'cause they're cannibalizing other franchises instead. Like, Scream 5? What are they tackling here? How their style of spoofing slasher films, or slasher films in general are worn out and tired in comparison to weird arthouse flicks like Hereditary and whatever BlumHouse churns out? Scream 4 tackled social media before that shit engulfed culture in general, now Scream 5 will have the dumb task of commenting on what its already commented before and attacking shit like Blumhouse.
I like Scream 3 but if they would have with Williamson’s script o would have loved it a lot more. It’s sound so good. It’s a good twist and a shocking reveal.
Hey Zack Just wanted to give you some positive reinforcement. Keep making these videos like you are, all you need is the right video at the right time about the right movie and you're gonna explode. What are your thoughts going into Halloween Ends? Kills was so bad 🤣🤣
@@ZackCherry embrace the terrible tradition of Halloween movies 😀 (Perhaps you could edit your Halloween videos into a longer one as we get closer to the release)
I think there's a Child's Play reference where they kill Chucky. It's when they kill Roman, Shoot him in the head like Karen did in Child's Play, but Shoot it in the heart.
I wish they kept Emily Mortimer's Angelina a killer, as long as she had already played one in the 90s Killings at Badgers Drift. And she nailed it! Yup, who knew that a goodie two-shoe may kill off a bunch of people who could prevent her and her incestical older brother from fortune :)
Idk why Scream 3 is so hated tbh. It has everything. A great reveal of the killer, new information, great references to the previous films, humor and serious stuff.

Would you have liked SCREAM 3 better if they included more horror movie references?
I’m not sure. I think they did the right thing by calling back to the first two movies instead of over loading it with other movies references. Cause it was a movie in a movie about the first movie. It never really bugged me
I always liked scream 3, I think it's better than scream 2.
Yea man I do , also wish we would have gotten Kevin’s version. I feel like He really knew what he was doing.
Yeah probably but It would still be the worst movie
No. Scream 3 is exactly the movie I wanted it to be.

It reminds me of the window scenes from Salem's Lot. Soo creepy
Yeah it felt like a scene more fitting for a supernatural horror like Nightmare on Elm Street not a slasher that’s supposed to be based in reality. But it was definitely effectively creepy
The way the nightmare version of Maureen Prescott was dressed reminded me of Margaret White from Carrie.

Also, Jennifer stole the movie. She was great! 😃
@@scottfreeisme Jennifer is in my top 3 of best supporting characters of the franchise, (aka anyone not including the surviving 3,who we all know)
Carrie Fischer playing a girl who looks like Carrie Fischer was definitely a plus
Scream 3 was the very first horror movie that I saw as a kid. So it holds a special place in my heart.
I’d say the scene with Sara Darling in the room at the Sunrise Studios offices with the props being stalked (and killed) by Ghostface would be a reference to the 1983 slasher film Curtains, where the final chase scene takes place in a prop house where a woman is being stalked (and later killed) by a masked killer dressed in black.

The Shining reference gets deeper when you think on Cotton and Jack's violent history and how the partners regard that potential in their husbands.

Horrible idea.
It would never be done to a satisfying level.
This sounds interesting but wouldn’t it just end up being a rip off of New Nightmare ?
@Johnny Cageee Obviously this didn't happen and they're thankfully moving on with different characters. It was still a fun idea.
Admittedly it would be very similar to New Nightmare. But honestly, it felt like a natural evolution of the franchise at the time of posting. Oh well.
Scream 3 was a great finale. Wrapped Sidney's storyline up well, had a great cast, and was way better than Scream 4.
Nah, Scream 4 is better then Scream 3 by a long shot. Hell catch me i the right mood its better then Scream 2
That's an easy accomplishment because Scream 4 is trash
YESSS
@@That_Tunafish_Guy absolutely
Williamson's original treatment for Scream 3 was eventually fleshed out and became the first season of the Kevin Bacon series "The Following".

Scream 3 is nowhere near better than 4 lolll
4 is the worst in the series.
@@cmajor886 absolutely agree!
The last frames of Sarah's death are an homage to Dario Argento's Deep Red
I was going to include it, but it seemed way too much like a coincidence to me 🤷🏻♂️
@@ZackCherry I think the Jill's neighbor death scene in Scream 4 has a Deep Red callback when ghostface hits her head at the window

@Darío Garcia Matthew Lillard himself said he was meant to return as Stu in Scream 3. He even got paid for it. Also, the original idea for Scream 3 got turned into The Following.
M - First of all, people have survived much worse in real life. Secondly, anyone can survive anything in a movie if it's written that way.
@Darío Garcia It's not that ridiculous. Dewey returning in Scream 2 and 3 is more ridiculous. People have survived worse in real life. Also, I saw an interview with Williamson when The Following came out where he said he used the original storyline for Scream 3 as the plot for the show.

@Darío Garcia A television actually isnt likely to kill someone so it would make more sense if he survived it instead of died.
I always thought Sidneys visions of her mum in the white night dress was reminiscent of Margaret White from Carrie, unintentional reference maybe? 🤷♂️
Another similarity in the opening scenes is Cotton’s sweater - it’s the same off-white, ribbed style that Casey wears in the first movie!

6:49 It made sense when Mrs Loomis was making generic "I'm gonna kill you" threats in Scream 2 because she knew nothing about the horror genre but Roman's threats in 3 sucked.
'Were Dad' could also be a parody reference to the 1990 film 'Ghost Dad'
That original treatment it's basically what ended up being the Williamson's tv show 'The Following' when you develop it as a stand alone story
Am I the only one who gets Salem’s Lot vibes from the scene with the mom at the window? The fog, the white pajamas, scratching at the window.
The mother nightmare scene could also have been a reference to salems lot
Well a big one hard not to mention even if it’s not a horror movie.
Carrie Fischer’s cameo representing Star Wars’ third film revealing a sibling twist between Luke and Leia.
On point
I see references to other horror movies as well. For example the 1972 slasher “Silent Night Bloody Night” (aka “The Night Of The Dark Full Moon”), the 1971 giallo movie “The Fifth Cord”, a certain french speaking 80s slasher which I forgot the title of, “Whisper Kill” and a few more.
I never noticed the eyebrows until now. It was like they were telling a whole story themselves

In the case of the original, you had a ton of slasher movies that followed the rules and cliches the movie was poking fun at and pointing out (Halloween, Friday the 13th, Prom Night, etc) The same goes for the sequel.. it uses the sequels to all of those films as a point of reference to model itself after. The body counts were bigger and the death scenes were more elaborate in almost all of the sequels that followed the films that the original referenced. The sequel even keeps in tone with the original in terms of referencing/homaging the stand alone slashers from the 70s/80s, like how Randy name drops several 80s slashers set on a school campus like Scream 2 is. Now in terms of Scream 3 there were literally no notable true horror trilogies let alone slasher trilogies for it to base itself upon. Only Part 3’s that turned out to be “just another sequel” as Randy pointed out in the video. So the focus on movie trilogies in general (Godfather, Star Wars) and using Hollywood itself as the backdrop to tell the story of Maureen Prescott’s secretive and traumatic past made logical sense.
Yeah, which makes me more aggravated that Scream 4...and yeah, I get everyone hates that movie, but hear me out here, tackled remakes and reboots because 5 now has nowhere to go unless they attack shit like Black Christmas 2019 and the Nightmare on Elm Street reboot from like 2010 or the glut of "arthouse" horror films 'cause they're cannibalizing other franchises instead.
Like, Scream 5? What are they tackling here? How their style of spoofing slasher films, or slasher films in general are worn out and tired in comparison to weird arthouse flicks like Hereditary and whatever BlumHouse churns out?
Scream 4 tackled social media before that shit engulfed culture in general, now Scream 5 will have the dumb task of commenting on what its already commented before and attacking shit like Blumhouse.
Great video!
I always thought that detective Kincaid would have been the second killer because he borrowed Dewey's phone so he can get her number from that.
I like Scream 3 but if they would have with Williamson’s script o would have loved it a lot more. It’s sound so good. It’s a good twist and a shocking reveal.
You should do rank horror movie fan theories videos for scream and Halloween
Sidney's mom is dressed up like Regan Hartley from the exorcist.
I just yesterday watched Scream 3 after many years.
Scream 1 and 2 i watched before that and today i'm gonna watch 4th 😍
Hey Zack
Just wanted to give you some positive reinforcement. Keep making these videos like you are, all you need is the right video at the right time about the right movie and you're gonna explode. What are your thoughts going into Halloween Ends? Kills was so bad 🤣🤣
Thank you for saying so. And sadly the last Halloween movie drained me quite a bit. I haven’t really thought about the next one at all.
@@ZackCherry embrace the terrible tradition of Halloween movies 😀
(Perhaps you could edit your Halloween videos into a longer one as we get closer to the release)
Not sure if i just missed him saying it, but i'm Officer Kinkaid is definitely a reference to Nightmare on Elm Street 3 and 4
I think there's a Child's Play reference where they kill Chucky. It's when they kill Roman, Shoot him in the head like Karen did in Child's Play, but Shoot it in the heart.
I really thought that Scream 5 was going to utilize the scrapped scream 3 plotline, and after seeing it, sad they didnt
I’m very confused how Zack doesn’t have over a million subs. I kinda figured he did when I saw the production value and the way he is.
yes. my favorite movie of all time ALIEN 3....love that reference
I wish they kept Emily Mortimer's Angelina a killer, as long as she had already played one in the 90s Killings at Badgers Drift. And she nailed it! Yup, who knew that a goodie two-shoe may kill off a bunch of people who could prevent her and her incestical older brother from fortune :)
Idk why Scream 3 is so hated tbh. It has everything. A great reveal of the killer, new information, great references to the previous films, humor and serious stuff.
