Love him or hate him, Wes Anderson definitely has a certain style when it comes to making movies. Right now, he’s working on Moonrise Kingdom but we just got an exclusive clip of his remake of the slasher classic Scream. If you think that you recognize the actress, that’s because you’ve seen her on our site. We featured Wendy McColm on Who’s That Chick. Between all the red wine, the fake Owen Wilson (complete with sour-puss face / somewhat broken nose) and the stupid monologue, Wes Anderson really put his stamp on this one. Check out the hilarious video after the jump!

When a good movie ends up being a big box-office success, studios automatically think ‘sequel’ no matter what happened in the previous installment. It makes sense when called for (loose ends, other plausible storylines, etc.) but producers have a way of running something into the ground until it’s no longer profitable. Today, we view anything beyond a trilogy as overkill but before the 70s, it was commonplace to pump out a sequel EVERY year. Some series have 21 or more installments. Thank the Big Man upstairs TV came along. Anyway, check out our list of film franchises with way too many sequels and let us know if we missed any in the comments after the jump.

Of course we’re only hanging out with them if they promise to stop blasting the 5 most overrated movie songs on their walkmans.

Have you ever wondered if Hollywood studios reuse the same scream effect over and over again? If you have, it’s with good reason.
The infamous death scream – “aaaaaaiiiyyeeeeaaaaaahhhh” – is called the Wilhelm Scream. The scream was actually a stock effect used in the 1951 film Distant Drums; it has been used in over 200 mov… Click to read more
