    Editorial Reviews

    Australian director Jamie Blanks helmed this teen horror film set at Pendleton University. Campus legend has it that 25 years earlier Pendleton was the site of a mass murder by a demented abnormal psych instructor who killed six students and then himself. However, no proof of the prof's deed remains. Urban legends are the subject of a course in American folklore taught by Professor Wexler (Robert Englund). When a series of bizarre deaths occur on the campus, assertive student Natalie thinks they are murders based on urban legends, but classmates Brenda (Rebecca Gayheart), ambitious journalism major Paul (Jared Leto), and practical joker Damon (Joshua Jackson) claim it's just a coincidence. Then Natalie begins to realize that she's the next victim. Since Joshua Jackson is a co-lead on TV's Dawson's Creek, an inside joke surfaces when a radio plays a bit of the Dawson's Creek theme (Paula Cole's "I Don't Want to Wait").

    September 08, 2008: Two years after SCREAM came out (1998)... this terrific slasher/mystery was released. A very classy and engrossing thriller that benifits from a top list of people behind and in front of the camera. Cast includes Alicia Witt, Rebecca Gayheart and Jared Leto (amongst many others). They turn in terrific performances and look fast for some very effective cameo's. Film was directed with style to spare by Jamie Blanks. Watch out for some of those camera angles. Terrific. The score was by Christopher Young of HELLRAISER and HELLRAISER 2. He returned to his horror roots and scored a very propulsive and energetic horror/thriller score. Well worth you time and money.
