“My mom and dad are gonna be so mad at me” 🤣🤣🤣 one of my favorite lines in the entire franchise
And “What would be your motive?” while flicking Randy’s earlobe. 😆
@@Indiana_Jones-Z and of course “peer pressure, I’m far too sensitive”
YOU HIT ME WITH THE PHONE, DICK! 🤣
Even though I remember seeing Scream in the theater when I was 14 in 1996, that line still makes me laugh my ass off.
I'm pretty sure Matthew Lillard actually improvised that line. 😄
I love how many times Nat says confidently that neither Billy nor Stu could possibly be the killer 😂
😂😂😂 can't wait to see her react to the other parts and maybe do the same 🤷🏾♀️🤪
I am abour half way through and giggling like a moron over it
Lol I was cracking up laughing she just knew they were innocent I was like “oh Nat…no” 🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️😂😂
Like this if you think Stu is alive
Fun fact, Rose McGowan could actually fit through a kitty door, so they had to keep reshooting it 😅
I didn’t know that. That’s hilarious 😂
You can tell because she already did the most difficult thing…getting one shoulder out! If one half fits so will the other! 😂😂👍🏾
They finally after reshooting it like nine times nailed her shirt to the garage door so she would just slip threw again.
Skinny legend.
tatum had the opposite of plot armor
FunFact: Tatum actually could fit through the kitty door. Billy really did hit stu with the phone and that was stu's actual reaction
And don’t forget when Sid stabbed Billy with the umbrella the second time and she missed the padding.
Rose McGowan (tatum riley) actually fitted through the kitty door, and while recording the scene she fell a lot of times so they had to screw her shirt to the electric gate
@@Heyitsmatt_15 even worse the place she hit was where skeet had open heart surgery as a kid
On a side note I find it funny and a bit strange in reaction vids for Scream when people joke that Tatum isn't wearing a bra when it's clearly visible.
Drew was meant to originally play sidney but thought she should b the opening kill qs no1 would expect it
Nat I BEG YOU to watch the whole series, it's SOOOOOO GOOD
Let’s be honest. It’s not… ALL… good.
But you need it all for context.
Yeah@@mattburgess5697
Thing is she probably needs to watch more classic horrors to better understand the references and not get spoilers haha. Scream is best enjoyed with good knowledge of horror I believe
@@mattburgess5697 Scream 3 is the only one I wouldn't say was good, and even then it's more just forgettable than straight up "bad".
@@TheTyrantVirusI agree. Something about a movie? 😂 I was surprised by 4. It was super enjoyable and I didn't see the twist coming at all
"how did they parody this, this is already a parody" that was exactly my first thought when i heard scary movie was gonna be a thing. Scream is my favorite horror franchise exactly because it's so meta and yet it still works perfectly as a slasher flick. It's absolute genius.
And the sequels are not that far behind in quality. You should definitely watch them all on the channel.
Scary movie destroyed everything
Exactly. I always thought Scary Movie was such a dumb movie for not getting that Scream was already a parody.
Keenan Ivory Wayans, the director of Scary Movie has said that making that movie was a bit challenging and during filming he'd constantly have tell the cast, who were improvising a lot of the dialog, "nope, they already made that joke". lol
Top 10 horror movie
I think this is a great example of the difference between satire and parody. Scream is a satire of slasher films, and Scary Movie is a parody. Just how I always looked at it, IMHO.
You want to know something awesome? Drew Barrymore was front and center on the poster for the movie. She was billed as the "top star" and everything, like she's the heroine... Only for her to be murdered in the first 10 minutes
She was first cast as Sidney, but she thought that it would be more impactful if she died first as to say "no one is safe".
Yup. The "Final Girl" XD
An homage to Psycho
Exactly!!@@rossop7
I thought it was brilliant. Drew was a big star so not many people were expecting her to be killed THAT soon. Not to mention how brutal her character's death scene was. Reminded me of Tina in Nightmare on Elm Street.
The fact that you kept saying “oh it can’t be Billy or Stu.” when it really was them the hole time, is just genuinely fun. Also Neve Campbell (Sidney) actually stabbed Skeet Ulrich (Billy) with the umbrella accidentally, he was wearing a safety vest but she missed, thankfully it didn’t stab to deep and he didn’t need stitches, but his scream was real.
Yeah, and his scream of pain ("scream" of pain.lol) was real because she got him in his chest where he had open heart surgery as a child. Ouch.
Neve Campbell didn't stab Skeet. It was a stunt woman under the mask.
Skeet Ulrich? I think you mean discount Johnny Depp.
Top 10 horror movie
She did it again in scream 3 in the scene with the icepick
No one talks enough about how amazing Matthew Lillard is. Not only does he 1000% nail every role but everything I’ve ever seen online about him makes it very clear that he’s also an absolutely charming human being.
Also, Gail and Dewey married after this in real life, and were married until 2010.
I’ve always gotten the best impressions of Matthew Lillard. I would totally want to meet him and give him a hug.
Love Lillard in this movie, in Scoobie Doo, and particularly in Twin Peaks: The Return but I just have a special place in my heart for that season of television.
Top 10 horror movie
Slc punk is a movie more ppl should see
They married in 2000, they were separated by 2010.
Fun fact: A handful of lines in this movie are improvised, mostly on Matthew Lillard's (Stu's) part. "My mom and dad are gonna be so mad at me," was completely ad-libbed, and the iconic "You hit me with the phone, dick!" was a result of a mistake. Skeet Ulrich was supposed to slam the phone on the table, but his hands were covered in so much fake blood that it slipped out of his hand and accidentally hit Matthew. The resulting "You hit me with the phone, dick" line, was Matthew's *genuine* reaction, and it felt so fitting that they left it in. There were more improvised lines ("I always had a thing for ya, Sid" "In your dreams" to name a few), but those are the funniest imo.
Bonus fun fact: Ghostface's voice actor Roger L. Jackson (Also the voice of Mojo Jojo in the Powerpuff Girls), recorded all of his lines on the set but hidden. He would be secluded in a room and talking to the actors through an actual phone call. The point was that if the actors didn't know who was talking to them, it made the experience scarier and their acting more genuine. They did this for so long, that Roger hadn't actually met any of the cast until 2015. There's a video you can find of Neve, Skeet, and Roger all on a panel together at a convention in 2015, and when asked when the former two had met Roger for the first time, the answer was "we met three weeks ago".
I love how Scream just knows what it wants to do and it just does it. I also love how much it messes with your brain. Most people probably think, "Oh. Billy is obviously suspicious. But the movie is pointing out how suspicious he is, so maybe that makes him less suspicious. But maybe making him less suspicious actually makes him more suspicious". And it makes you go back and forth between whether he's innocent or not. And then the reveal that yes, he is suspicious but there's also another killer. I love it. Billy and Stu have such a fun dynamic. Especially on rewatch. They definitely give off a little 💅 in their interactions. But you know what they say. Couples that stay together, slay together. And boy did they slay.

@livebackwards are you thirsty my guy?
Lovely little meta gag you may have missed not being a horror fan: the school janitor the principal talks to briefly is dressed as Freddy Krueger from the Elm Street movies, and is played by Wes Craven who directed both this and Nightmare on Elm Street.
This movie was revolutionary when it came out. Wes Craven coming back to the slasher genre he helped popularise during a period where everybody was over it, making a perfect satire of it all, and spawning a huge new wave of slasher popularity in the process. Perfect movie, one of my all time favourites.
Scream is so amazingly self aware. It leans into every trope and in doing so allows the audience to suspend their disbelief. A true gem.
you are right . Tough bad bitches will kill every toxic man out there. You go girrl
NO,,,,, ''you go girrl" ,,,,, bad bitches rule
oh wait a minute ,,, I just read your name Andrew. Now I feel bad for you Andy.

@@SirHumphrey498 you okay?
In high school, I saw Scream in the theater during it's opening week, before the hype. My bff was 8 month's pregnant and needed cheering up. I suggested we go see "The new Drew Barrymore movie." We were shocked at the opening sequence. My friend was like, "What the hell did you bring me to? Im gonna go into labor!" This was the 90's and it was cutting edge. Ill never forget that experience.
The Scream series is probably one of my favorite franchises, like for me it’s consistently fun
Yeah I normally dont like horror movies or anything like it but I really enjoy Scream!
100% I don't know any other horror series that has as good a batting average as the Scream movies. 5 out of 6 are all pretty awesome (with 3 being the weak one, obvi). I was pleasantly surprised by how good 5 and 6 were.
Except that damned voice changer
@@An0nymous_L0gicdon't you ever besmirch Roger Jackson's sexy voice
@ShaneM1 lol nah not that, his voice is iconic. I meant the one in scream 3 that perfectly mimicked everyone's voice.
It's extra meta in that part where the killer is behind him because he's saying "Jamie, behind you", and the actor playing Randy is named Jamie Kennedy.
24:34- fun fact, the actor saying “behind you, Jamie.” is Jamie Kennedy. Wes Craven just had a different touch about his films 🥺🫶🏻 he really dug deep into his love for horror films and made it meta. loved your reaction, Nat!
Most of Wes’s movies were creative and always trying to be original even his failures
he’s saying behind you jamie in reference to Jamie Lee Curtis, the actor of Laurie Strode in Halloween (the movie they’re watching) and is supposed to be a joke because the killer is behind him as he’s saying to turn around. I think the fact the actors name is jamie might just be a coincidence but it’s a fun thought that it might not be!
It wasn’t a coincidence. They actually did that on purpose.
At the same time, he never took them too seriously as he was, in a way, always parodying all the previous horror films. Another thing missing from the new films.
I'm always surprised when people haven't seen this movie. It's such an iconic slasher film even 27 years later.
True Top 10 horror movie
27 f'ing years, that can't be right. I feel so old!
The whole series is REQUIRED!! Such a great series.
YEEEESSS
I'd stop after 4.

@@Spidercake543,4,5 and 6 are nothing but a Trash
@@stingertv1106 that’s your opinion it’s a very wrong one but everyone’s entitled to have them, however your opinion is not fact
I think the greatness of Scream 1, is that Stu and Billy are both the killers, when you are watching the movie you may expect just One killer not two, and also Stu and Billy are very different killers, Billy is more for revenge and Stu is for fun.
They’re all so young in this! Mathew Lillard who played Stu is definitely an underrated actor.
Lillard has another movie coming out in 3 weeks. Five Nights at Freddy's
Even though this might be where I first saw him, but for me he will always be shaggy
He's so good in SLC Punk... he absolutely crushes every scene.
Let's not forget his role as Shaggy
He's also in my favorite garbage-tier-movie-with-an-inexplicably-stacked-cast: Dungeon Siege: In the Name of the King.
You called her a fire starter and Drew Barrymore starred in “Firestarter” - a horror from the 80’s!! She actually was a firestarter! 🔥
Natalie you just made my entire month, You can’t start this and not watch the rest, you’ll be obsessed!!!
Second this. Scream my favorite horror franchise. It's just fun. ✌️
Curiously questioning how ppl like this movie in a non rude way😭I never found the hype of this i always felt it was a boring cliche horror movie and ppl say that’s the point but idk I wouldn’t even say it’s horror🤣
@@trevorsmith572 So why click the video?
@@trevorsmith572 Good for you. Why are you here?
@@michaelbrewer2069jeuss christ you people are rude for no reason💀I simply asked why ppl like this movie🤣so butthurt over a movie
"Billy's not the problem."🤣🤣🤣
One thing I love about this movie is that the Ghostface costume was one that already existed before this movie went into production, which helps make this movie feel just a little more like it could actually happen. In some scenes the mask looks a little different because the producers weren't sure if they could get the rights to use the real costume, so they made some masks that looked a little different, but the company agreed to let them use it for practically nothing.
Are you kidding? I’m sure the company made billions in costume sales after this and the sequels came out. I would have given Wes Craven the rights for free!
@@randallwright1973They did let him use it for free. All they asked was to be credited in the end credits.
@@Joker_JAK Nice! I'm glad to hear that. As I said, I wouldn't have minded if they asked for money for the use, but I hoped they were forward thinking.
Top 10 horror movie
You literally learn something new everyday 🤗❤️💯
The funny thing is Tatum had to do the garage scene many times because she kept accidentally fitting through the doggy door so she had to pretend like she was stuck 😂😂
Matthew Lillard staying a constant 8, and escalating to 11 after the reveal is just wonderful. He's one of my favorite killers in the series.
For Lillard's dramatic chops, you need to see him in SLC Punk.
Yes to all of this.... ^^
SLC Punk surprised and devastated me!
SLC punk is a CLASSIC
HACK THE PLANET!!!
@@MikeWilsonBarrett Hack the planet!
Both you and your editor are, as far as I'm concerned, the funniest people in the 'reacting' world. Such sharp, silly comedy, and it's so fun to see an editor poke fun at their content creator in such a witty way, in many ways beating comments to the punch in a friendly way. I love it.
The great thing about Scream was it was so self aware, in that it even though it is a serious subject it constantly refers to old Horror films and makes reference to the plot of them etc. It also spawned superb sequels, each on of them is great too and well worth a watch. You gotta do the sequels, the writing is just so clever. Wes Craven killing off the most famous person in the film in the first few minutes. An incredible amount of such famous female actors in the Scream films just too many to mention.
Scream is hands down my favorite horror franchise
It's great on at least two fronts. Craven actually manages to teach a master class in horror writing/directing, while simultaneously breathing life back into the slasher genre, which by 96 was troped out and thoroughly dead. Great react Natalie, I truly enjoy revisiting these films and hearing another perspective. Been subbed a few years. Take care.
True! He manages to turn a slasher flick into a whodunnit only for the twist at the end to be that there were two killers. He purposefully sets up ways to give alibis to one or the other but never both, so if you assume there is one killer, you would never guess it. Wes Craven is absolutely unparalleled in slasher horrors.
Wes Craven didn't write Scream. Kevin Williamson, who created Dawson's Creek for the WB, did, and he wrote Scream 2, as well. .
@@BPrice1A well, new one on me, these 27 years I could've sworn he was involved with the writing.
There are so many fun behind the scenes facts about this movie!
Like sidney lives on Elm Street.
The director Wes Craven played the Janitor, Fred. A reference to Nightmare on Elm Street.
And I think my favorite is Randy being played by Jamie Kennedy, so when he is saying "Watch out Jamie, he's behind you" he's also talking to himself..
This is one of my favorite movies and I'm glad you watched it!
I think this is the perfect movie to finally say "Hey Nat, what's your favorite scary movie?" 😏
The face expressions Nat used when Billy was comparing their relationship to the exorcist ...the face "This is a HUGEEE reach my guy"
Wow, it's so rare to watch someone who has no prior knowledge at all of this. Like thinking Sidney is just going to be victim number 2. I thoroughly enjoyed this reaction (like all your reactions to be fair). I really hope you continue this franchise. It's so good!!
It's rare. Most reactors have already seen Scary Movie or the meme clips so they aren't surprised or scared it.
the sequels are SOOOO optional, they're all prettyyy good but i feel like something is lost when you franchise Scream. this first one is just..so amazing
The "you should have gotten cookie dough!" line had me laughing so much! 🤣
And the dum dum's edit was gold. Nat Gold one might say 😜
😂😂😂
That was hilarious 😂😂😂
Wait, you hadn’t seen this? This is my favorite horror franchise, actually one of my favorite franchises, period. I would be thrilled if you did the sequels!!!
"Peer pressure, I'm far too sensitive" is the funniest line in this movie for me. Matthew Lillard "killed" this role
I don't believe there is a perfect movie, but Scream borders on it for me, at least the perfect scary movie. The final reveal is one of my favorite villain reveals ever. So happy you're watching this and am interested in if you'll consider watching the sequels because they get increasingly more meta.
Scream is a masterpiece in the genre. It toes the line of meta-ness while never going too overboard. The script is super tight, especially with the double killer reveal. It uses your horror knowledge against you because you've been taught to only think of one killer, but you also think Billy is too obvious of a red herring.
Its also just a ton of fun, especially Stu's character.
I would love it if you did the sequels. I don't watch many horror movies, but I think all are pretty decent movies at least. (3 is my least favorite, but it's still good enough imo)
3 is dumb as fuck but still SO MUCH FUN
@@ViKatamari yeah it's fun. Some great moments. Still my least favorite. (I prefer 4-6 over 2&3)
There is no bad scream movie
@@youngstar312I’m not the biggest fan of 3 but 2 is my next favourite
@@youngstar3124 and 5 I'll give you but 6 is the worst in the franchise
The Scream series is one of my all time favorites. So campy lol. The scene right before the principal gets killed shows the janitor dressed like Freddy Kruger since Wes Craven directed both Scream and Nightmare on Elm Street.
fun fact, when she stabs billy with the umbrella she misses the padding and actually stabbed the actor, so that’s an actual scream coming from him!
I rented this movie from the Library when I was a teen and watched it like 7 times during that week. It was a nice marriage between the old horror and new horror, and is a core memory for me during that time. I remember where I lived, what was going on, and it is very nostalgic for me.
One of my all time favorite horror movies. It’s up there with “The Exorcist”, “The Texas Chainsaw Massacre”, “The Thing”, and “The Shining” (which is my favorite movie of all time).
Scream is not only my favorite horror film, but one of my favorite movies in general.
This movie was a shot in the arm to the slasher genre when it came out. We had been subjected to all the supernature killers of the 80s and all their rip offs and the genre was starting to become boring. This movie, at the time, was a breathe of fresh air. I saw it three in the theater. It was released in December 1996 but I think it was re-released in the summer of 1997. or, maybe It was just the theater in my town that did that. FYI, Billy hitting Stu with the phone was not scripted. When When Skeet Ulrich through the phone, the fake blood made it stick to his hand and it hit Mathew Lillard by accident, but his reaction was genuine.
I think it did get rereleased, cause my friends and I went and saw it the weekend before graduation. Course back then, multiplexes would keep a movie for 6 months if people kept going to see it. But you got a point, when it came out in December, I didn’t care. The trailers made it seem really generic, and Dimension was more associated with straight to video quality movies at that time.
All the comment is great, although the word to throw in past tense is “threw”, while what you wrote was through. Exp: I went through the door. 😊
My bad. I'm still good at getting my there, their, and they're right. Oh, and my your and you're. @@TBO3ntertainment
I love how Billy is basically hiding in plain sight. He acts so creepy that you get the feeling that he has to be a red herring because it would be too obvious, then you feel like you were right when he gets fake stabbed, then the reveal is basically just like "of course he's a killer, he was acting like it the whole time!" Scream's script really makes you second guess yourself in a way that few other horror movies do.
Girl… yes! My favorite slasher franchise 😍
Sameee 🔪🩸
YAAAASSSS DO THEM ALL PLEASE!!! The first is by far the best, but the rest are fun and spooky in their own way. This movie was a cultural reset for the horror franchise/slasher films, it deserves it place in the hall of fame of the greats. Love your reactions! ❤
Scream (2022) well Scream 5 was really fun.
This was an instant classic when it was released. You just took me on a trip through all of my own emotions when i first watched it back in 1997
Matthew Lillard is one of my favorite actors. The whole cast in this is just fantastic!
Yesss I will drop anything to watch a scream reaction let alone Natalie’s! Please watch all of them
7:18 I think we don't talk much about the actors who played Casey's parents, right?? I mean, they are SO GOOD in that scene, you can definitely feel their fear, anguish, despair about their daughter. And THAT scream!!! WOW!!!
Scream is great. This may well be the definitive post-modern horror movie.
I simply have to recommend Dog Soldiers as a future edition of Natmares! Fantastic movie that is a cult classic.
I honestly enjoy every single Scream movie that I've seen so far. I'm working my way through them for the first time as well and they are all enjoyable.
I am so glad you enjoyed Scream! I hope you continue the series!
"Randy's a nice guy!" THANK YOU! I was worried when you didn't like Randy at first, because he's one of my favorite characters in this movie.
Matthew Lillard's Stu is absolutely perfect. Some of the sequels are pretty good (3 being my favourite) but his sheer chaotic energy is sorely sorely missed from here on out.
Literally all the Scream movies are so good, ones are the best ones, some others are not so good, but they all are very rewatchable
@@Av3rag3_D0um4definitely all rewatchable, hard disagree that they're all so good (2, 5 and 6 are so uninteresting imo but at least Craven's a master enough to save 2)

I LOVE every film tho, even Scream 3
Fun Facts:
- So when Tatum said to Dewey that the janitor is your superior, it's true cause the janitor at the school that was dressed as Freddy Krueger was Wes Craven, who directed Scream-Scream 4. He also directed the original Nightmare on Elm Street.
- So before Scream came out in 96, the caller ID was not popular at all. The caller I.D. sales in the U.S. tripled after Scream was released, lol.
- Billy AND Stu were at Casey's and used their girlfriends as Alibis for being out. Stu was on the patio with Steve while Billy was in the front, tormenting her on the phone. The question about "Which door am I at" was a trick question. Stu ran to the front door to let Billy in. You could hear the front door open before she went outside through the kitchen. Also, when her parents got home, the front door was open. When her mom was hearing Casey breathing on the other end of the phone line, you can hear one talking to another saying "tree," and the phone ends. Also, when Steve was tied up, he was looking at both directions of the house.
- Wes Craven lol to get his actors into character emotionally like Drew Barrymore (Casey) and Neve Campbell (Sidney) right before he start to film he would run up to them and tell them something terrifying. With Drew Wes Craven would tell her real-life stories of animal cruelty to bring out her emotions and then run off and yell action, lol.
- Roger L. Jackson is the voice of Ghostface for ALL of Scream movies. For every film, the actors were never allowed to meet him before or see him during filming, so that way, when they were on the phone with him, it would give them that real fear effect. Wes Craven always kept him hidden from the others to where they couldn't see him, but he was still able to see them. He also improved a lot of his lines as well.
- Neve Campbell (Sidney) was originally going to say no to the film as she is especially afraid of horror movies. But when hearing her co-star Skeet Ulrich (Billy) from "The Craft" (1996) was going to appear, she agreed. They did both movies back to back that same year.
- They casted Skeet Ulrich as Billy Loomis and gave him the same kind of hair style cause of how close he looked like to young Johnny Depp in Nightmare on Elm Street who also climbed in through a bedroom window. His last name, Loomis, is a reference to Dr. Loomis in Halloween.
- Also, after he climbed through her window, the first time "Fear the Reaper" was playing. He climbed through her window to distract her and turned on her stereo to cover up the background noise of Stu kidnapping her dad. If notice he was wearing the same outfit at the end.
- The news lady that was harassing Sidney "how does it feel to almost being butchered" at the school is Linda Blair from the Exorcist.
- If you look really closely when Billy was "stabbed" in the bedroom, you can see Stu adding the fake blood onto the knife before wiping it off.
-Casey's comment about Nightmare on Elm Street about how the first was good, but the rest sucked. It's because Wes Craven only did the first one and didn't direct all of the other ones, lol.
-Kenny actually saved Sidney in his literal final moment AFTER his throat got slashed. He pointed to the back and told her "door" so she could crawl out.
- Ghostface in the bathroom was a prank on Sidney it wasn't either Billy or Stu.
- Rose McGowan(Tatum) was actually able to fit through the cat door. They had to staple her shirt to the door cause she kept falling out. Also, just before her head got smashed in, she herself added, calling out "mom," and Wes loved it and kept it in cause it gave her last moments of humanity. Rose also picked out her own outfits for her character. The jersey she wore with #10 was also a reference to Johnny Depp in Nightmare on Elm Street.
- When Billy hit Stu in the head with the phone, it was an accident on Skeets part. The fake blood was so sticky and ended up hitting Matthew Lillard instead of the desk, and his "Oww You hit me with the phone D***" he stayed in character and was his real reaction to it. Wes loved it as well, so he kept it, lol. Matthew also improved most of his kitchen scene with his lines, like with "Houston, we have a problem," "the peer pressure, I'm far to sensitive," and the comment about his parents going to be so mad, lol.
- That WHOLE kitchen scene took about 2 weeks to film because of the amount of high energy that was used as well with all of the fake blood (corn syrup dyed red).
- Neve Campbell and Matthew Lillard actually started dating while filming Scream and were together for a little while. So that whole "I've always had a thing for you, Sid" was true, lol. He originally auditioned for Billy, but the casting didn't believe that someone like Sidney/Neve would date someone like him, lol. So he ended up getting Stu, and Skeet got Billy cause of his look alike to Johnny Depp. The funny thing is that even though the casting thought that about Matthew, they ended up dating real life anyway 😂 even though they didn't last that long as a couple they are still close friends. The OG cast are still pretty tight to this day (especially Skeet, Matthew, Neve and Jamie *Randy*) and they do A LOT of different conventions over the years together and still do.
- When Billy got stabbed with the umbrella the 2nd time, it actually hit Skeet, where he had heart surgery when he was younger, so that scream he let out was his real action to the pain.
- Drew Barrymore was supposed to play Sidney. But she ended up changing her mind and she herself went to Wes with an idea to have her as the open kill cause no one would expect it because of how popular she was in the 90's. Also, it would show if they could kill off a huge star right off the bat it would mean NO ONE was safe. It was the BIGGEST surprise shock effect for the audience cause they assumed she would be the leading character and they played into it with the publicity and posters.
-Even though Billy was at Sidneys for the attack it was Stu who she fought with. When he was tripping up the stairs you can hear ghostface saying "easy" "easy". The next day at the lockers, he was checking his face in Tatums mirror for any bruises, and when Tatum was hitting him with her sucker he says "easy" "easy.
-Billy was always 1 handed with his killing if he had a knife if didn't he resorts to choking except for Tatum he used the opportunity with the garage door. He gave a signal look to Stu at the front door that Tatum was dead. Stu uses both hands when using the knife and resorts to other tactics if he doesn't have a knife like the both times he fought Sidney.
-Stu was the one that called Dewey about the abandoned car to get him away from the house for a little bit and also called Randy about the principal after the whole "I'll be right back." Billy killed the principal so they could use him as a deploy for later that night to get the rest of the guests to leave the house so the real party could begin.
- Dewey was originally supposed to die in this one, but Wes Craven and everyone just loved David Arquette when they did a screen view test and how he played his character. They all fell in love with him, so Wes went back and they reshot the ending where he had Dewey do the thumbs up to show the audience that he survived.
I haven't been this excited for a notification in a LONG time
In so glad you enjoyed this. All of the Scream movies are so fun. Can't wait until you get to Scream 2.
You should really watch the rest of the series, it's the most consistent (quality wise) of any horror franchise. Four is my personal favorite, with this one being just a hair behind.
Scream is in my top 3 favorite horror franchises ever. Im hoping you continue this series Natalie :) it will surprise you greatly
I really hope you watch the full series, it's super consistent!
PLEASE WATCH ALL OF THEM. It’s so worth it
The Scream franchise is very much a self-aware homage to the slasher movie genre. By the mid-90's, slasher movies started becoming stale and formulaic because they were rife with overused clichés and tropes that audiences were very much aware of. So in order to bring a fresh take to the genre, Wes Craven (creator of the Nightmare On Elm Street series) wrote and directed Scream, incorporating those well-worn clichés and tropes into the plot. Craven also appears in a cameo as the high school janitor "Fred", dressed in Freddy Kruger's signature fedora and striped sweater.
Wes Craven didn't write Scream, which is a bit surprising since it's such a natural followup to New Nightmare and how self-referential that was. But the writer of the original Scream along with 2 and 4 was Kevin Williamson. As big a role as Craven played, Williamson is called the creator of the series and I think the most recent ones give him a "characters created by" credit.
Thanks for the great reaction Nat. I consider myself lucky to have seen this on the big screen back in '96.
The movie is of course filled with references but one of my favorites is the reporter who asks Sydney how does it feel to be almost brutally butchered is played by actress Linda Blair, Regan from the Exorcist.
PLEASE DO THE WHOLE FRANCHISE!!!! All of them are great!! And would love to see your journey from this first entry that is iconic as hell all the way to the newest Scream which was great in its own way.
Also side note I hope someone explained to you that Drew Barrymore the blond at the beginning…was in all the promotional material and trailers as if she was the main character so people’s mind’s were blown when she died in the first 15 minutes.
This is my favourite reaction of Natalie's. Her pure enjoyment I love. I forgot how good this movie was.
26:41....😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I'll be overjoyed if you go on to watch all 6 of these. They're consistently very funny and very meta.
I love how Billy is talking about The Exorcist and then Linda Blair plays one of the reporters interviewing Sidney.
This was probably my favourite scream reaction I've watched, your a joy to watch Natalie!♥
This movie was the first time I saw Matthew Lillard and he immediately became one of my favorite actors. This is one of my favorite movies I've seen it so many times.
How have you never seen Scream?!?! I hope you get through at least a couple more of the franchise before the month is over!
She usually only does one movie from franchises like this
I can't believe how far you've come, gleefully reacting to this movie, haha. I truly value you preserving the Friday the 13th spoiler lol.
WATCH THEM ALL. They are so solid and super-entertaining!!!
i hope you watch the rest of the series! they’re all mostly in the same lane but all enjoyable. and the 3rd really plays into the comedy/campy element…
Favorite slasher franchise of all time 🙌🏼 so glad you enjoyed this one
Whether it’s for the channel or not, I hope you continue the franchise ❤ it’s so meta the entire way through and a blast to watch
This movie does everything to be a horror movie and satarize horror movies.
A few fun facts. Wes Craven, the creator of "Nightmare On Elm Street," had already did a movie that was supposed to be real life imitating a movie, which was "Wes Craven's New Nightmare" where Heather Langenkamp plays both herself and Nancy, the character she played in the original 1984 movie. But he wanted to do a movie about a group of high school kids who loved horror movies and what they would do if their lives were in danger of a killer on the loose, which turned out to be genius before social media would help movies as they do today with people like yourself reacting to them.
This movie wound up reviving two things. First, this was Drew Barrymore's comeback that led to her becoming not only an A-list actress again, but her creating her own movie company. It also gave new life to the slasher genre as they had seen a huge decrease in popular and number of movies made as after the box office success lead to Jamie Lee Curtis coming back to the Halloween franchise when she did "Halloween: H20."
Easily one of my favorite horror movies of all time. Matthew Lillard was such a highlight and is amazing in everything he does.
Reactions like this are why i subscribe to this channel. This is easily one of my favorite movies.
the homoerotic tension between stu and billy is INSANE and matthew lillard shipping them makes me so happy 😭
PLEASEEE watch the whole series! You would love it!!!
I haven't watched yet, but all I am going to say is you have to do them all.
This franchise is amazing! No movie that is bad, just depends on which one will be your favorite. Would love to see you watch all of them!
Great reaction Nat. If you do decide to watch Scary Movie, you should watch I Know What You Did Last Summer first. It parodies both that and Scream most heavily.
Some Halloween movies that might be up your alley, Love at First Bite, Young Frankenstein, Haunted Honeymoon, and Mars Attacks. They are all very lighthearted.
I think you'd enjoy continuing the Scream series. 3 was a little disappointing, but still had fun moments. I enjoy all the rest of them.
I saw this one on theaters and to this day i still use “you better liver alone” the whole time. Also Linda Blair’s cameo as a reporter is pretty cool.
You better watch the sequels sometime soon
You watching this franchise is gonna bring you so many new subscribers, me included. This franchise is so important to me, and it was a joy to watch you react to it. Cannot WAIT for you to see the rest of the films.
Love when Natalie projects her own standards onto other people’s relationships.
I remember as a kid I thought Scream was this "one of the cool horror movies everyone talks about". But when watching it as an adult it really is just black comedy. I love the ghostface's identities. Stu is such a character
Nat! You should definitely watch the entire series. One of the most iconic horror film franchises ever! Sadly Scary Movie kind've ruined this movie for me but i still gave it and the others a chance and absolutely loved them! You dont have to do a reaction for Scary Movie but definitely watch it 👍
Matthew Lillard (Stu) is - in my opinion - a VERY underappreciated actor. He's easy to overlook because he has a habit for playing really awkward characters. Stu - Shaggy in Scooby Doo. He's also in 13 Ghosts, as well Nat if you want something to watch for Halloween (unless you've already seen it.)
Oh man I can’t wait for you to watch Scary Movie now Natalie. Screams my favorite horror movie, scared the shit out of me as a kid, like to see it coming back twice now haha.
i love the whole scream series even while not being a huge horror fan. hope you continue the series!
Your comments about the sex of the victims is actually a common misconception about slasher movies. On average, more men than women are actually killed in slasher films.
I LOVE your reaction to this movie I love this series so much! You HAVE to continue the series!!!
