There are many reasons why the original Scream movie was so popular that it's now birthed a franchise that doesn't seem to be slowing down anytime soon. In a few years, there will be seven Scream movies released and they all have something in common that makes them fun to watch for even the most dedicated fans. There's the fun and frolic of the original movie as the characters in the film realize they are actually in a slasher movie. There's the truly teen reaction of such a thing which is going to a party and acting as though they are all indestructible despite the fact they are very much not. And then there's trying to figure out who exactly is the killer.
