@@FancyRPGCanada I occasionally watch Lups and Phealous. And the decline of spoony is horrifically depressing. It genuinely hurts to see how much the man has destroyed himself and everything around him
"Time is the real killer." Yeah, I'm still having difficulty coping with the depression that so much time has passed that this movie could now be considered "nostalgic" or "classic". 27 years used to feel like a much longer time span.
I just realized its been 10 years since the last Scream movie the other day when i pre ordered a ticket for the new one. Feels like it was far less time than that.
Yup, I'll be 39 this year and its shocking how fast my 30s flew by. I told my 24yo neighbor in 2020 how depressing the realization I would be 50 in only 13yrs was and the look of pure horror on her face perfectly matched with how I felt about the situation.
Wes Craven was one of the very few genuine innovators who've ever worked on the horror genre. With his astute mind and erudition, he irreversibly changed the face of horror movies no less than *3 times* during his lifetime, when most directors generally only do it once: first, by making horror truly horrific and nauseating (as it should be) and an instrument to dissect the causes of society's moral decay as opposed to mere escapist entertainment in *Last House on the Left* (1972); then by giving the stagnant slasher genre a vivid new breath with I take to be his _magnum opus_ - the creepy, horrific and meditative *A Nightmare on Elm Street* (1984), and then one final time by giving the tired, formulaic genre the same thing that was responsible for the perceived renovation of theatre in the 60's - a deconstruction: first with *New Nightmare* (1994) and then finally with *Scream* (1996), cementing his status as one of the genre's greatest directors ever. Wherever you are, thank you, Wes Craven. We miss your genius and your human touch daily.
Will said. I pointed that out in my comment that he has rewritten horror three times. And I remember when A New nightmare came out everyone was like yeah that was pretty good but not like the best. And then scream came out and people were talking about Wes craven like he was the golden god. And you know I don't think he's the golden God but he's definitely an excellent director. Last House on the Left is frighteningly disgusting
@@kodiekulp Proof that mainstream "acceptance" is no indication of quality. Scream's script is abysmal, in fact it's so poor it sounds like a modern film. A New Nightmare is very flawed but is a superior "self-aware" experience to Scream IMHO.
What a beautiful sentiment. Very fitting for an icon of Craven’s caliber. I’m sure he’s touched by your tribute wherever he is! Thanks for sharing this. 🖤
I used to work at Circuit City when this movie came out and the trailer played on a loop so I was very aware of its release. Saw it opening night. Small crowd, huge reaction! It remains the best movie-going experience of my life!
I really love Lillard at the end, watch his face while Billy explains the real motive and the gears in Stu’s head start turning like “wait a minute, dude, you’re crazier than I am.” Revealing Stu was just a thrill killer while Billy went all Machiavellian and was just using Stu as more or less his weapon
Glad you're doing better, Brad, and this is already a top tier episode. Solid review and amazing references. Can't wait to to see the sequels get taken on down the road.
Scream is a very well-made and competently written horror film that still holds up today. With that said though, it's hard to take it seriously sometimes because of the first Scary Movie. Which ironically was the original title for Scream. "Run, bitch, RUUUUN!" 🤣
I enjoyed Scream, but there were several times when it was hard to take seriously even before Scary Movie was released (such as the girl trying to escape via the catflap), and the movie's tongue-in-cheek meta-knowledge slant made it a prime target for parody.
Y'know, I would love for a meta-like horror movie that, instead of slasher movies, based itself upon giallos. It would be about an American transfer student at an Italian boarding school that is plagued by a string of murders that are commited by a man in a black trench coat and fedora.
I'm glad you're feeling better Cinema snob and thank you for actually reviewing a film that is somewhat near and dear to my heart as I was 4 months old when this film came out
For the longest time, the ghost face mask genuinely terrified me. This is my absolute favorite slasher movie and surprisingly the second one, while not as good was still a great movie
Anyone else find it weird with Tatum how no one, not even her own BROTHER Dewey, took a moment to mourn her death here? Like, not even a mention in the film or its sequels. Even in a Scream documentary, some of the cast were baffled by this, including Dewey's actor, XD
I always thought that was fucking weird xD like Sydney never mentions it and Tatum was her best friend lol only Stone in scream 3 mentions her and in Scream 5 she gets a mention
Congratulations on recovering from that dreadful virus! I’m so happy you’re back in fighting shape, ready to critique whatever film you encounter! Seriously, I’m very glad you were able to make a full recovery, and so quickly too! Stay healthy and safe, Brad. We love you! What an awesome review of a great modern classic! I really enjoyed your take on Scream. Does this mean you’ll be covering the sequels? I sure hope so! I remember a good bit of the second film, cannot remember a thing about part three, and never bothered watching the fourth installment, so I’d very much appreciate a refresher course via your magnificent reviews! Besides, this way we might be lucky enough to see more of Lloyd’s beloved Out Of Context Lone Star 911 Clip Of The Week sprinkled in amongst the critical film analyses! And let’s face it: there is nothing on this earth that cannot be improved by adding Lloyd. 😻💞
22:20 I saw Scream pretty young as a kid before I knew anything about the world of horror movies, so I initially interpreted this scene as Billy revealing himself as actually being a guy named Anthony Perkins, that Billy Loomis was just a faux ego and never actually existed, and by him factitiously calling himself a psycho it was implied he had a history of doing this, a history of mental illness and psychopathy, hence being revealed to be the killer...
There was a big hint that Billy was a killer in his first appearance. When he is talking to Sidney, you hear a alternative-rockified version of “Don’t Fear the Reaper” play, which was famously used in “Halloween” when Michael Meyers was stalking Laurie in the car. Another important clue is when Sidney was first attacked. Billy comes through her window and drops his phone, the important thing was not his phone, but it fell next to his shoe. He was wearing a very distinctive pair of hiking boots, and those are the same boots you see step down from the toilet when Sidney is attacked in the bathroom.
Nice to see you back in the studio Brad! Awesome review! Always fun to go back to Scream! While I don't have a ton of flaws with the film, I will agree it's got some moments worth mocking or criticizing... Still... It's got fun satire, good deaths, and a wild ride of a climax! A horror buff should have a blast experiencing this flick for the first time! Also, it was quite a trip watching Matthew Lillard in this the first time when all I knew him from was fucking Shaggy!
I’m surprised Brad hasn’t done the ‘Scream’ series yet. Makes sense with a reboot/sequel coming out Friday. And so glad to have Brad feeling better to bring us his snarky commentary
He’s done scream 2 before I swear he has. He made a joke about Sarah Michelle geller getting thrown off the balcony and it immediately cutting to a party and loud music and yelled “fuckin tone!” I swear he did.
I was like 7-10 years old when this came on tv and I remember the bathroom scene was so intense for me I had to shut it off. This was the only time ever I did this so it's burned in my mind. When I watched scary movie a few years later it was so therapeutic I had a massive laugh attack that was never again matched. It's funny how this franchise was responsible for two of my most intense reactions. Makes me wonder of what movie/scene was so scary back in the day that people couldn't watch it and what kids nowadays are gonna find too scary.
I've always wondered how Ghostface got into girl's bathroom stalls without being caught or seen or maybe that was just another prankster? That's the only scene in the movie that doesn't make sense to this day.
I've always thought it was one of the 2 boys who got expelled. That way it makes sense to me, especially since the Ghostface in the bathroom seems to be unarmed.
Just wanted to say: If Seth Green had gotten the part, I feel like that would have been much more iconic. (But then we may have never gotten the incomprehensible New Year's special...)
At the time I watched this movie over and over again and then read the script for fun with my best friend. It was just a really amazing/ memorable/ iconic movie
Even as much of a snapshot of the mid 90s as Scream is and despite a few unintentionally hilarious moments, a lot of this movie legitimately frightens to this day. There's a real sense of unease throughout the film, and there seemingly being nowhere safe as despite everyone knowing "the rules" of a Scary Movie that won't save you because the killer knows them too. Although with all the Ice Nine Kills I've been listening to I'm also half expecting Spencer Charnas to be the one under the Ghostface mask. "Your number's up, it's time to scream!"
21 day party damn! Also the girl trying to escape through the dog door was definitely akin to someone I knew growing up who would just do dumb impulsive shit because she thought it was quirky.
3:58 This scene actually terrified so so many movie goers that it is considered largely responsible for the quick adaptation of caller ID on home phones
8:45 Nice retro clip, Mr. Snob.....also wait a sec, is that related to 2001 Maniacs with Robert Englund? 9:15 You know what would've been even scarier during these phone scenes? If Ghostface had said he was CALLING COLLECT.......whooooooo! 11:07 Mmmm, Corn Chex(Rice Chex is also acceptable) 11:59 A horror/action film about Fonzie chasing after delinquents? Might be a decent watch. 18:26 Oh look, Proto Silent Bob 20:36 A Lloyd clip.....my day is now at least 15% more awesome.
Holy shit, you're 40 years old?! I've been watching you since the early TGWTG days, can't believe time flies that quickly. Very glad you've recovered well, by the way!
Great review. When this came up on YT I was surprised you hadn't already done it, seems like a given but since you're not a big fan, I get it. I remember when this came out and someone decided to wear a ghostface costume to school for Halloween (iirc the film came out around that time?) The look of pure terror on everyone's face was pure gold, somehow more memorable than the movie itself.
This feature came out around the year i went to my first year in High School here in Sweden. It marked for me a bit of a renaissance for horror flicks. It was a bit of a return to features that dealt with horror and young adolescents. I wouldnt say it was a phenomena but we sure had a lot of movie nights with our friends in class. It was social events. So while im not a horror fan or ever have been its still a feature that is a landmark i remember. So thank you Craven!
Very Happy to have you back Brad and Awesomeness as Always! Great movie to come back to as well, Scream fits into you cliches of Horror Movies wheelhouse perfectly!😃 Also excellent job on so many other horror movie references in this review as well. Hope you consider doing Scream 2-4 as well! 😎😈
I had the same reaction to Scream. I saw it and liked it when I was a kid, but kinda developed a hipster-y attitude about it the older I got. It spawned so many awful 90s and early 2000s slasher flicks that it soured the whole thing, plus I kinda found the wink and nod, self-aware shit to be lame and pretentious. When Scream 4 came out, it directly made fun of the contrarians like myself and I got a chuckle out of it. I went back and watched the whole series and ended up loving it all over again. The characters are so great and memorable, the killer is iconic and the whole series is just a ton of fun. Super excited for Scream 5!
How was Billy going to explain why he was covered in red corn syrup? I know he had actual blood on him too, but that wouldn’t cover up the massive amount of red corn syrup. With a murder scene that large, the FBI would likely investigate and they wouldn’t fall for it.
You really think some Voltron virus is going to have any affect on the Snob? If he beat the bejesus out of Santa Claus nothing can stop the man. Glad to see you back and if I may add you're looking mighty snazzy tonight.
Despite everything over the years, Brad is the one TGWTG creator who I have constantly stayed with.
Brad is iconic, and I would say the most consistent of all the original Channel Awesome creators.
I still check in on Spoony sometimes, poor guy has a heart condition and severe depression. Bennett is doing really well
I always wondered what happened to Spoony after he disappeared from TH-cam.
@@FancyRPGCanada I occasionally watch Lups and Phealous.
And the decline of spoony is horrifically depressing.

Finally what we've all been waiting for. More Lloyd!
I loved how Sydney mentions girls too dumb to run out the front door and then the killer prevents her from doing that.
It’s really unfortunate how the sequels seem to forget that Dewey was Tatum’s brother
They kind of acknowledge that in the 3rd one.
@@ericatheempress6698 And a deleted scene in 4.

“Melvin pee red.”

This series has been on my list for a while, probably should get around to watching to it since the new one’s almost out!😅
Definitely do, they are really fun movies

How was Billy going to explain why he was covered in red corn syrup? I know he had actual blood on him too, but that wouldn’t cover up the massive amount of red corn syrup. With a murder scene that large, the FBI would likely investigate and they wouldn’t fall for it.
I always thought that too
Now that was a fun review. Must agree with your highschool friends tho. Scream rules. But that was fun!
I appreciate your videos a lot.
You really think some Voltron virus is going to have any affect on the Snob? If he beat the bejesus out of Santa Claus nothing can stop the man.
Glad to see you back and if I may add you're looking mighty snazzy tonight.
Exactly what I needed today.
