Quotes:

  • Cotton: I don't know about homicide, but you've sure got me for raising my voice in a public library.
     
  • Joel: I'm gonna get some donuts, some prozac; see if I can't find some crack; and I'll be back when y'all find a subject more "Saved By The Bell"-ish!
     
  • Sorority Girl: Hi Sydney! No, I really mean that, hi!
     
  • Hallie: I like the little furry things.
    Mickey: Ewoks, they blow.
     
  • Mickey: Billy knew it was all about execution.
    Sidney Prescott: Oh yeah? Well, there's one thing you're forgetting about Billy Loomis.
    Mickey: What?
    Sidney Prescott: I fucking killed him!
     

Trivia:

  • The striped sweater of Freddy Krueger can be seen hanging in Sydney's dorm room while she watches Cotton on television.
     
  • Kevin Williamson cameo as Cotton's interviewer on T.V.
     
  • Not only was the cast not informed who the killer was until the last Day of shooting, they also didn't receive the last 10 pages of the script until it was time to film them. The last 10 pages were also printed on grey paper, therefore making them unable to be illicitly Xeroxed. All cast members had to sign contracts that they would not discuss the movie's outcome or the killer's identity with the media.
     
  • In Scream, Sydney laments that with her luck, she'd be portrayed by Tori Spelling if her story were ever filmed. In Stab, the film-within-a-film in Scream 2, Tori Spelling does in fact play Sydney.
     
  • Wes Craven cameo as a man in the background at the hospital.
