Scream
[dx_custom_adunit desktop_id=”RTK_K67O” mobile_id=”RTK_5yk0″]
“Scream” was as pastiche of classic ‘80s slasher films that was super meta about the “rules” of scary movies. It continued in this tradition by later spinning off a few sequels to ever-diminishing returns. Anyway, it pulled its greatest trick by making everyone think Drew Barrymore was the star of the flick, when in reality her character gets brutally murdered in the very first scene. After that, the now legendary Ghostface killer terrorizes the town’s teens, murdering them one by one until it’s finally revealed that there were really two killers all along: Billy and Stu, played by Skeet Ulrich and Matthew Lillard. Oops, spoiler.
