Scream a Big Scream

Scream. The multi-faceted title serves as a directive to audience members.  It references the famous Edvard Munch painting (from which Ghostface draws his contorted visage).  Most of all, it points to the signature cinematic expression of horror.  There are plenty of screams let loose by characters in the Scream movies; here are my choices for best scream scene in each of the first three films:


1.Maternal wail by Casey Becker's mom (Scream)





2.Randy's mutilated body makes Gale bellow (Scream 2)  [Note: the scream occurs at the 4:55 mark of the video]





3.Synchronized screaming by Gale and Jennifer (Scream 3)  [1:18, 1:34, 2:30 marks]
