Scream (1996 Wes Craven)

What? Wes Craven has just died and it is that time of year. Besides Scream is written (by Kevin Williamson) with a lot of fondness for the movies that it sends up, to the delight of a knowing, horror-movie aware audience.

Neve Campbell is the heroine in danger, Courtney Cox a ruthless TV presenter, David Arquette (the deputy), Matthew Liddard (annoying), tum, tum.

Most horrific moment - group of friends are watching Halloween (the music from which creeps into the film) in 4x3. Shock! Horror!

Can't remember who the masked killer was now - does it matter?
