A lot crying, screaming, etc. Also, she didn't get her menstrual period while filming - that's how stressful the role was. So, although she said it was fun - it wasn't all fun. lol Do a search for Drew articles/interviews about Scream - and I'm sure you will find one where she talks about what I wrote.mizmodenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4327605674280773646.post-13587611167067505212010-07-07T23:26:54.238-04:002010-07-07T23:26:54.238-04:00I *love* these movies.

I was in fifth grade when they came out and wasn't allowed to see them at first, so when I finally did I knew everything that happened in the first one. I didn't care. I loved it. I was also obsessed with Neve Campbell at the time.<br /><br />Your comparing this to Psycho is very apt. One thing I wanted to note is that Drew Barrymore was featured very prominently in the advertising for this movie, which made her on-screen demise even more surprising.<br /><br />I realize they only had an hour, but I was so disappointed that she wasn't asked about this movie when she was on "Inside the Actors Studio"! The only comment I've ever read from her about this movie is when she was on The Rosie O'Donnell Show and said "That was so much fun!"jakeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05687321925107280139noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4327605674280773646.post-21176718952700080002010-06-25T11:32:26.660-04:002010-06-25T11:32:26.660-04:00Also new to your site.

Drew was originally slated to play Neve's role, Sydney, but Drew convinced Wes Craven to take the part of Casey. Smart girl.<br /><br />2. The wig that Drew wore in Scream was sort of an homage to Michelle Pfeiffer's character in Scarface. <br /><br />I didn't know that Michelle said that about Drew. They should work together. :)mizmodenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4327605674280773646.post-70805537024463252752010-06-24T06:05:08.521-04:002010-06-24T06:05:08.521-04:00And to be fair, Michael Myers does kill 2 babysitt...And to be fair, Michael Myers does kill 2 babysitters in the first film :)Joelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16638478847775628906noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4327605674280773646.post-67830255584349690362010-06-24T06:03:42.280-04:002010-06-24T06:03:42.280-04:00I think we must have had a similar Scream obsessed...I think we must have had a similar Scream obsessed teenhood.

I'm only 17 but I remember being obsessed even when I was in elementary school and watching them with my mom. Sometimes we'd get jiffy pop at the grocery store and make some before we watched Scream. Teehee. And sometimes I'd randomly suggest watching the other two movies as well.<br /><br />Gosh, I need to watch one of them again soon.<br /><br />Drew was always one of my favorite actresses and I think Scream may have had some impact on that. I never realized how great she really is, but...she really is ~that~ great.<br /><br />And I gotta agree, don't grill her for that false knowledge of the Halloween movies...I think they might've written that as a character thing - like she doesn't really know the movie, she just knows it's a babysitter so she says he stalks babysitters. LOL I have no idea what I just said, but it makes a lot more sense in my head. Nevermind. But it's kind of like the "orlly? nightmare on elm street? isnt that the 1 where he haz knives 4 fingerz?". Idk. I always thought it was a character thing.<br /><br />Anyway, I'm done rambling. I will definitely be following this though. (P.S. I don't know where the other newbies came from, but I ventured from The Film Experience. :P)Philipnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4327605674280773646.post-9725761509171666022010-06-23T19:16:30.200-04:002010-06-23T19:16:30.200-04:00Thanks for all the feedback, guys (especially to t...Thanks for all the feedback, guys (especially to the first timers - i'm not sure where you came from, but hello)!

I haven't seen Scream in a while, but your description brought back a lot of memories --- including how that line "I want to know who I'm looking at" marks the first genuinely scary moment in the movie.kidicarus222https://www.blogger.com/profile/18363078559398106005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4327605674280773646.post-16168522575693243082010-06-23T18:02:55.071-04:002010-06-23T18:02:55.071-04:00I never really considered Drew Barrymore's rol...I never really considered Drew Barrymore's role thru the prism of her future rom-com cred and the phone conversation as the sort of cutesy foreplay those movies would indulge in, but that's a great observation, Glenn. <br /><br />Oh and I think you're being a wee bit hard on Casey there with her broad labeling of Halloween as a babysitter killing movie.

What I find really disturbing about Scream is that JonBenet Ramsey's murder happened just five days after this movie opened.
