Admit it, Scream is a classic.

This was a savior to the genre back in the 90's besides "Silence of the Lambs", "The Sixth Sense" and the TV Series of "Buffy The Vampire Slayer" and made horror popular again. Just forget the cheap rip-offs like "I Know What You Did Last Summer" and "Urban Legend and the sequels, just enjoy the original 90's classic.

I think this is a much better Wes Craven movie then the disgusting "Last House on The Left" and just as good as his original "Hills Have Eyes" and "A Nightmare on Elm Street".

Of course Scream is a classic, it's my favourite Craven film actually, more than Nightmare on Elm Street.

Shame is spawned off a lot of crap though.

off course it is! everybody laughs at it but in all fairness it is a very clever entertaining movie! We all love, although some of us are too chicken to admitt it

it's the fact that films such as this created the horror pop-culture of the mid90s, which carried on with bubble-gum horror efforts to this day.

last house on the left was and is a horror classic, by the way.

Scream was just the beginning of dumbing down horror.

Last House on The Left is a sadistic and vile piece of trash and for sick minded freaks who love "Faces of Death" and "Men Behind The Sun" , "Scream" is a way better Wes Craven movie. And what about the ghost movies these days like "The Sixth Sense", "The Others" and their imitations? and do you watch "Buffy"?

I love the original Scream, gets an unfair reputation because of all the shit that spawned after it and the ridiculous sequels, but the original is indeed a classic as far as I'm concerned.

I don't think it's Craven's best, though. I prefer the raw, angry and honest brutality of Last House on the Left.

It's definitely up there, though.

Well I liked the trilogy, but 2 and 3 were not up with the original for me, still had excellent moments though.

I LOVED Scream.

I liked Scream 2. Not as good as 1, but still good.

I thought Scream 3 was terrible.

Scream is responsible for the rise in talent free identikit here today gone tommorow teen orientated horror films that pricks fill the cinema with thus leading decent horror makers to abandon their originality of their debuts for shitty remakes for the $$$
its also responsible for the success of the Scary Movie flicks which lead to the last couple of Wayans flicks and trash like Date Movie,Epic Movie.

and thats Screams legacy
the return of the feeble sight gag flick and a pile of forgetable remakes in blockbuster

and Little Man
