Reeling in a character with a false sense of comfort before swiftly posing a question everyone in the audience would affirmatively respond to (“do you like scary movies?”), the soon-to-be-victim begins to realize what we already know: if they can’t answer three specific slasher-film trivia questions, they’ll be six feet under before next month’s phone bill arrives. As the production company’s logo appears on screen, we begin hearing the ringing of a landline phone-if you’ve seen only one of Scream’s now five installments, you immediately know whose voice will be on the other line.
There may be no horror franchise that opens with as simple and satisfying a tradition as Scream.
