I was not exaggerating when I wrote that nearly everything in Scream is perfect. It is too bad that such a sublime movie had to have been soiled by the reputations of the sequels and imitators that followed it.--Cortney Fusco (Diabolical-Dominion.com)
Not quite as hip as it likes to think it is, this is none-the-less a decent and fairly entertaining flick with a fine young cast. Has fun taking jabs at others of the genre including most of Craven's previous efforts.  -- (TheVideoGraveYard.com)
Though this movie popularized the postmodern slasher subgenre genre that now led to a bunch of crappy imitations, Scream is a very good horror movie.  --Jack Witzig (ColdSpot)
