You notice we review lots of horror movies - that is true, my brother an I tend to favor that genre. However, we have seen plenty of the classics, romantic comedies, sci-fi, action, biographies, foreign films, indie films, anime, and westerns, to boot.

Response to favorite horror movie 1: Scream

My take: Scream very much embodied the mid- 90's.  The use of cell phones was available, but still seemingly limited; no large scale use of social networks; and the characters all held a pop culture laden cynicism about them.  I think of Scream as an almost satiric ha-ha to the late 70's and 80's horror genre.
 
Some great lines, and a great hook at the end (2 killers) make Scream a horror film for the ages.
