Scream Review (1996)

Scream (1996)

More PowerPoint presentations from Lois

As you can see from above, I created a presentation on Author Stream to write a review on the 1996 slasher film, Scream. I believe that it was one of the best horror movies that I have watched so far as it had the best opening scene and the storyline was really intriguing. The action started as soon as the film began and the action and tension just continued to build up. I liked the fact that there was a plot twist at the end of the movie which no one expected. The use of ominous music kept the audience on edge and this added the effect to the movie being a horror. The film was set in an eerie, isolated setting which is a stereotypical convention of a horror. When introducing the opening title, the title had red flashes behind it, which can connote blood and gore. I noticed that there were many references to other horror movies such as, Psycho (1960), The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974), Halloween (1978), Friday the 13th (1980), Prom Night (1980) and A Nightmare On Elm Street (1984).
