Franchise flashback: Why the opening scene of Scream 2 is horror at its best
takes place in a world where Gale Weathers has sold the film rights to her book, which has become the inspiration for a flashy, but probably garbage, slasher movie called. But Craven and Williamson opening even more meta doors in the series isn’t the inherently interesting part: it’s the cultural landscape that is shaped by this fact.. Amongst the pointedly monochromatic crowd, Maureen notes the awareness of the racism and mistreatment of Black people in the horror genre .
The brilliance of this opening lies in the way that it paints an audience as so blinded by the need for spectacle, and so crippled by an inability to discern between reality and fiction, that the viewers have transformed into sycophants. After Ghostface slashes through Phil in the bathroom, he returns to his seat in the theater and attacks Maureen. The audience, buoyantly ready for the next thrill and sporting their own Ghostface masks, moves from an indifferent crowd to a voracious throng.
