He made them movies extra scary, and hard to watch. He left Behind a great legacy with those movies, Because I know them movies were the Best. It's tragic that he passed away though, I would've loved to see what other movies he would've made.

  79. All my life I've been watching every "Scream" that's been out and now I'm kind of sad because I never knew all these years who made them. But the sad part is I only find out when the creator dies from natural causes. Moreover, I can't believe there isn't going to be another Scream ever in theaters. Craven was very talented for creating horror movies that every found exciting and interesting and will live on forever.
