Williamson's script managed to deftly be so many things - it was a sly meta/self-parody about the horror genre that didn't cross the line into goofiness, while also playing as a successful whodunit and, most importantly, an effective horror film in and of itself.įinally a group of horror movie characters made it clear that yes, they'd seen all the same movies we had, and were aware of the rules and clichés that come with the genre. Stars: Neve Campbell, Courteney Cox, David Arquetteīoth director Wes Craven and writer Kevin Williamson have plenty of successes in their career, but Scream remains a big highlight for both men.
