A friend of mine used to work at Tower Video after Scream came out. People would come in and rent this and Last House on the Left because it was Wes Craven not expecting what they got.

Craven really redefined horror three times in three decades.

I don't like this movie, but appreciated it more after I watched the remake.

I’ve seen Michael Berryman interviewed a few times, and he always seems like a really smart, together, and interesting person.
