Scream opening scene
The title Scream appears on to the scream with a loud bang noise which indicates that their could be shocks and other jumpy parts in the film. The font of the word first appears in white block writing, then the word appears again but in red which could indicate blood and death and when this appears you can hear screams which means there is going to be scary parts in the film and it also the film title ‘Scream’. It then cuts straight to a shot of a phone ringing and a young girl (Drew Barrymore) is home alone and answers the phone when, on the other end there is a deep, thick mans voice who speaks to her. He tries to trick her by asking who it is even though he phoned her in the first place she then gets worried and hangs up the phone, he then rings again soon after. When the phone rings for the second time the camera jumps to the girls face and you can she is worried and slightly frightened because she thinks it’s the man from the first phone call. After their second phone conversation the camera goes outside and shows a swing with nobody on it but it is moving as if someone has been sat on it and has just left, you do not yet know who it was but the girl has yet to step outside. The camera then goes back inside the house and follows the girl when she is making popcorn, the phone rings for the third time. He then gets onto the subject of scary movies and asks her name, he then tricks the audience by saying that he is looking at her, instantly she panics and turns the lights on outside to see if she can see anyone, she then closes and locks all doors and windows. At the end of the third phone conversation when she is about to hang up the man’s voice says in a stubborn and forceful way “Don’t hang up on me”.
This phone conversation is set late at night and you also find out that the house the girl lives in is set in a remote place out the way of the town centre which is stereotypical for a horror movie, every time the phone rings it cuts to it and the music stop, this creates suspense because you know who is ringing the girl. Also the music which plays is very thick and loud, this also creates a fear for the audience which relates to how the girl in the clip is feeling.
