Have You Seen: Scream (1996)

In our series "Have You Seen?" we discuss a movie that some of us know well and others have just now seen for the first time. Our conversation focuses on the experience of someone watching the movie for the first time today and their reaction.This week we discover Wes Craven's horror slasher Scream from 1996 about a group of highschoolers who are terrorised by a masked serial killer. We talk about what makes Scream stand out from most slasher movies, how it is effective at deconstructing the slasher genre, whether it has kept its effect almost 30 years later, and much more.
