Goofs
After the car accident blood stains are visible on Barry's shirt. Barry dives into the bay to retrieve Helen's crown. When he emerges, the blood is mostly gone (presumably washed away). But seconds later when Barry walks up the dock, the prominent blood stains have re-appeared on his shirt. See more »
Quotes
Julie:
Wait.
Ray:
What?
Julie:
Should we check his wallet and see who he is?
Barry:
Why?
Julie:
I don't know okay, just to know.
Helen:
I don't want to know.
Barry:
Let's just pretend he's some escaped lunatic with a hook for a hand and we're doing everybody a favor.

German theatrical version was slightly cut to avoid a "Not under 18" rating. The uncut version has been released on VHS/DVD/Blu-ray. See more »
I like Kevin Williamson. Scream was a brilliant parody of horror films while being scary in its own right and Dawson's Creek is a great television show. But this film is just not that good. It's not scary. It's not well written or well thought out. There really was no reason for guy from Rosanne to get killed. He had nothing to do with it. And it is the same thing in the sequel, most of the cast has nothing to do with it either. I didn't find this flick scary in the least although the story at the beginning was interesting. It is blessed with a cast of incredibly good looking people but that does not make it a good film to watch. If you really enjoy seeing Love Hewitt running around with her breasts half exposed, Gellar looking particularly sexy, Phillipe trying to box, Prinze Jr. looking silly, stupid characters that do stupid things, unconvincing deaths, a trunk full of fish that conveniently disappears (smell and all) when it is required to, someone get a hair cut in their sleep without knowing it and a plethora of other really bad scenarios, then this is your movie. However, if you want to see a good horror flick with teenagers getting killed, rent the early Fridays, the first Halloween, the first Nightmare, the first Texas, the first Evil Dead and even Scream. But for God sake, stay away from this one. It is quite bad.
