Scream 2

Factual error: The movie theater ticker says it's Monday, April 12th, 1997 - but the 12th was on a Saturday. (00:00:20)

Factual error: At the end of the film there is an LA county sticker on the ambulance, but the events are nowhere near LA. (01:52:05)

Factual error: When Cici is about to be killed she throws the phone onto the floor without hanging up yet the killer calls her again and the phone rings. Surely it would be engaged if she had not hung up. (00:33:05)

Suggested correction: Before she throws the phone on the floor, you can hear specifically the tone indicating that she pushed the button to end the conversation. The dramatic horror movie riff fires off right at that time so you may have to pay extra attention to pick up the sound before the string section assaults your ears, but the beep is there.

Factual error: The part of the play Sidney stars in begins with "All, behold the dreaded fate of Troy, that once stood proud and light upon the hills of Sparta." Please, what? There is a correlation between Sparta and Troy (the bride of the king of Sparta ran off with the prince of Troy, that was the casus belli), but phrased this way it does not make sense. (00:57:00)

Mistakes

Revealing mistake: When the killer is attacking Cici on the balcony, you can see blood on Cici's back before she is even stabbed and both times she is stabbed, the knife that comes out of her back has no blood on it. (00:33:20)

Trivia

Trivia: There have been rumors ever since the release of "Scream 2" that filmmaker Robert Rodriguez actually directed the scenes from the movie-within-the-movie "Stab." (This would explain why "Scream 4" states that Rodriguez directed "Stab.") However, there are also conflicting reports that director Wes Craven filmed the scenes for "Stab," and even some theories that both directors worked on the "Stab" scenes. To this day, the truth is unclear.

Questions

Question: In the movie "Stab" it shows what is supposed to be reenacting Drew Barrymore's death and looks as if it is just like the one in the first film. But how could it be almost perfect if no one was there to see it?

Chosen answer: In real life, they'd have known there was a phone call involved. They would have known her boyfriend was killed. They could have easily pieced together that the killers played a cat and mouse game with the Drew Barrymore character. But that doesn't account for all the details. Anything else would be speculation. My speculation: Maybe Billy Loomis kept a diary.

K.C. Sierra

And rumor has it that Stu didn't die that he may still be alive.
