Scream (1996) – Wes Craven’s Genre-Defying Masterpiece
“Scream” is a horror film tailor-made for die-hard horror fans. Directed by Wes Craven, this teen slasher is a brilliant deconstruction of the genre, masterfully outlining horror film tropes one moment and subverting them the next.
What sets it apart is its campy, self-aware, and ultra-quotable dialogue, which has become as iconic as its ‘Ghostface’ killer. The chilling white mask has become a symbol of the franchise, used by seven different killers across the five-film series. “Scream” reinvigorated the horror genre by adding layers of self-awareness and meta-commentary, making it a beloved and enduring classic in horror cinema.
