The phone call in Scream (1996): Do you like scary movies?

Wes Craven’s Scream is arguably the most famous slasher movie of all time. The opening scene of the film, however, is definitely the most iconic horror movie opening and the most quoted of all time. Drew Barrymore’s character is alone in her house, making popcorn when she receives a call from a strange man who asks her if she likes scary movies. The sequence quickly devolves into a death scene that is radically gruesome.
