Scream (1996)

Trivia: Because of the extremity of violence and gore, Wes Craven had to re-edit the film eight times to avoid an NC-17 rating from the MPAA. It eventually received its R rating after Harvey Weinstein convinced them that the film was satirizing violence, not glorifying it.

Scream (1996)

Trivia: The murder of Principal Himbry was added after producer Bob Weinstein noticed there were about thirty pages in the script (which roughly translates to thirty minutes of screen time) in which nobody died. The scene also resolved the climax at Stu's party, as it gave all the guests a reason to leave.
