Scream is a horror–mystery movie that follows a group of high school students in the quiet town of Woodsboro who are suddenly targeted by a mysterious masked killer known as “Ghostface.” The story centers on Sidney Prescott, a teenage girl still dealing with the trauma of her mother’s murder from a year earlier. When a series of brutal attacks begin happening around her, Sidney and her friends realize the killings aren’t random—they’re connected to horror movie rules and patterns, especially classic slasher films. As the killer continues to strike, suspicion spreads through Sidney’s circle, and no one feels safe, not even her boyfriend or close friends. A local reporter also begins digging into the case, uncovering secrets that suggest the attacks are tied to Sidney’s past. What makes the story stand out is that the characters are very aware of horror movie tropes and try to use that knowledge to survive—but the killer seems to know those rules too. The film builds toward a tense reveal of who is behind Ghostface and why the attacks are happening, turning the story into both a survival mystery and a commentary on horror movies themselves.Kenzlee Conness is the main victim.
