Scream has not been one of the best films that cinema has left us, however, there are few people who do not know it, because it has been placed among the most iconic of horror movies, although in reality it is halfway between comedy and terror. The first 1996 film left scenes that have become an icon and of which other films have echoed. One of them is that of Drew Barrymore to the phone when asked: "What is your favorite horror movie?"; And the other is, without a doubt, the scene in which Randy explains the rules to survive a horror movie.
