Halloween Horror Countdown: Scream



So meta: Jamie Kennedy urges
Jamie Lee Curtis to turn around
while watching Halloween
Master of Horror Wes Craven (The Hills Have Eyes, A Nightmare on Elm Street) sparked a resurgence of slasher flicks in the 90s with the release of Scream in 1996It is a horror film about horror films. The entire Scream series is suspenseful, self-referential, and meta, but as with many film sagas, the first is definitely the best.  When a ghost-faced murderer begins terrorizing teenagers in the small town of
Woodsboro, a group of friends consider "the rules" of horror films as they try to survive. It's an incredibly fun movie to watch with the perfect blend of suspense and wit.
