Scream Not by any definition the best movie or even the best horror movie. But it's a film that really hits these perfect notes for me. It's a well-made horror film, but more importantly, it's a more humane horror movie. The thing that Craven never gets enough credit for is how he seeks to create horror films that represent very real life traumas and insecurities, and create a good sense of catharsis for his characters. The whole new age shifting of power seems silly in Nightmare on Elm Street, but is brilliant when Sydney turns the tools of her assailants against them. Nevermind it's boldness to present a woman who is conniving and ambitious as someone who you are absolutely rooting for by the film's end. It contains a surprising amount of depth in its dialogue that makes rewatching incredibly fun. I can rewatch Scream almost endlessly.
