If someone phones you, but they claim to not know who you are, isn't that a little suspect? THEY rang YOU! Immediate red flags. 2. Seriously Casey, stop smiling and get off of the phone!! Also, don't walk away from the popcorn – you're going to start a fire. 3. I don't really know the guy, but I'm sure Steve didn't deserve that fate. Poor boy. 4. I KNEW the popcorn would catch fire. Yes, there are more pressing matters at hand, but all you had to do was turn the stove off. 5. Wow! You really just killed off Drew Barrymore??? How? Why? 6. Her poor parents. So far this movie is sad AND scary. Dimension Films 7. How young does Skeet Ulrich look?! Had no idea he was in this. Must have been before he became a Southside Serpent. 8. Sidney, you go girl! If you don't want to do more, Billy can wait. 9. If anyone is going to be able to pull of a lime green suit, then it's Courteney Cox. 10. Love the fashion. Now considering cutting bangs... 11. Ayyyy! It's the Fonz! 12. The line "remember, your principle loves you" doesn't sit right with me. Is that not a bit weird? 13. Every time I see Matthew Lillard I just see Shaggy from Scooby-Doo and I love it. Dimension Films 14. I genuinely want to know how much these huge houses cost, because London could never. The heating bills must be through the roof. 15. Do these students not get homework? When I was at school I did every day, so I'm jealous Sidney can take a nap when she gets home. 16. For the first time ever, that was a realistic horror movie phone call! Sidney calling their bluff was a little ridiculous, but every movie needs a little drama. 17. Also, is it bad I'm relieved she didn't burst into theatrics and have a breakdown after she had a creepy conversation over the phone?? 18. They are arresting the boyfriend for a scary phone call? Typical. Tap to play GIF Tap to play GIF Dimension Films 19. Seriously, would you automatically think your boyfriend of two years tried to kill you because he has a "cellular phone"? 20. That phone! Oh how far technology has come along. 21. Tatum is so mean to Dewey! (Then again in Scary Movie 2, wasn't his character the killer in the end?) 22. Gale Weathers really needs to calm down. I always hate reporters in movies. 23. The Freddie Kruger lookalike was a nice touch. Dimension Films 24. I thought the principal might be the killer... Now I know not to trust my own judgment. 25. But I keep expecting the killer to shout WAZAAAAAP with his tongue out – Scary Movie 2 really has ruined me. 26. Stu is my favourite character and I'm sticking by that. 27. Gale. Seriously?! I know you're a reporter but can you calm it? 28. Why wouldn't you keep all the drinks in the kitchen if you're having a party? Everyone knows nothing good happens in basements. 29. It would be really easy to climb back out of that cat flap Tatum!!! Tap to play GIF Tap to play GIF Dimension Films 30. "We all know the horror movie roles" – yeah we do, and it's not looking good for you hun. 31. "I'll be right back" better not be an intro to killing off Stu! His humour gives me respite from the spooks. 32. Billy saying "What do I have to do to prove to you I'm not a killer?" gives me serious killer vibes. 33. Ok, so the boyfriend isn't the killer because he's just been stabbed... by the killer... now who is it? Dimension Films 34. Why are there so many doors in these houses? Each room has at least two separate entrances. 35. When Sidney knocks the killer to the ground, why doesn't she beat him up enough to actually get away? Or take his mask off so she knows who he is?? 36. Dewey trusts people too easily. They've gone for a walk while there's a killer on the loose?! Gale just wants the inside scoop, and there's a good chance she's going to see first-hand who this killer is. 37. Courteney Cox is a versatile actor! I'm impressed. 38. And now they've killed her off. I know I don't really like Gale but I didn't want her dead! Dimension Films 39. Ok, so it IS the boyfriend?? Who tried to kill him then? Is there more than one killer? Is this a tag team kind of situation? I NEED ANSWERS! 40. If there's any plot twist that will make a movie less scary, it's your favourite character being a killer. I really didn't want it to be Stu! 41. No way?! Gale isn't dead! Is she going to become good or keep being a busybody reporter? 42. I'm going to say it... I still like Stu. I know he's a killer and that's very bad, but I believe he was peer pressured! 43. Ok, fine, he's bad. 44. That was a brutal way to go. Billy really suffered. 45. Gale is a legend. There, I said it.
