Scream to Scream, Scene by Scene: SCENE 11 of Scream 3 (0:35:32-0:36:53)

In this project I attempt to review the entire Scream trilogy scene by scene in chronological order. Heavy spoilers and gore throughout!



SCENE 11 of Scream 3

Pop Culture References:

• When a Stranger Calls

Okay, look, let's just get this out of the way right now so we can swiftly move on. Yes, it has been a very long time since I last did an entry in this series, and yes, I got all of your emails and comments asking me to continue. What took me so long? Basically, I'm a lazy git. If they'd just go ahead and announce that maybe-probably-not-sorta-well-who-knows Scream 5, or if information started to leak about that upcoming television series then my inspiration would have been sparked all over again (plus, let's face it, Scream 3 isn't exactly the best of the trilogy!), alas... anyway, here we are. I hope to be able to commence the series at regular intervals, but don't hold me to anything.

Remember in Scream 4 when they just decided Neil Prescott was dead?

The Scream movies are good for a lot of things, but one of the lesser mentioned ones is the watch the development of telephone technology. The first film is predominantly landline based, so much so that a character with a "cellular telephone" is viewed upon with instant suspicion. The second film sees mobiles featured far more predominantly, while the third seems them all but taken over. Scream 4, of course, features everyone using smartphones and bluetooth.

Oh, how very Carol Kane in When a Stranger Calls. "The call is coming from inside the house", and all that jazz. Let's just be thankful that Maureen Prescott didn't return from the bloody grave like the last time we visited Sidney's house in the hills.

Oh. That was a brief return, wasn't it? Still, I like that it mirrors the bait and switch nature of scene 10 from Scream at the same moment of the film. But that's just preparation for all the toxic, explosive gas we're about to sniff in the next scene. I promise it won't take months until I do it!
