Quotes

Robbie : You're a movie knack, Kirby, what's your favourite scary movie?
Kirby Reed : Bambi. Dork. What?
Charlie Walker : That's funny, Kirby!
-
Sidney Prescott : This... you film your entire high school experience and what, post it on the 'net?
Robbie : Everybody will be doing it some day.
Charlie Walker : It's kind of the one component the killer is missing.
Gale Weathers-Riley : Wait, what do you mean?
Charlie Walker : Well, if you wanna be the new, new version, the killer should be filming the murders.
Robbie : Yeah, it's like the natural next step in the psycho-slasher innovation. I mean you film them all real-time and before you get caught, you upload them into cyberspace.
Charlie Walker : Making your art as immortal as you.
Charlie Walker : [speaking same time as Robbie] Not to implicate him.
Robbie : [speaking same time as Charlie] Not to implicate me.
Sidney Prescott : So who do you think is doing the murders.
Charlie Walker : Well, it's a Stab fanatic clearly. Working on less of a Shrequel and more of a Screamake.
Robbie : Copyright terms, by the way.
Charlie Walker : Cause all there are now are remakes. Only horror studios green-light. I mean, there are still rules, but the rules have changed. The unexpected is the new cliche.
Robbie : Yeah, you gotta have an opening sequence, that blows the doors off, gallop some music video direction and the kill's gotta be way more extreme.
Charlie Walker : Modern audiences get sappy to the rules of the original. So, the reverse has become the new standard. In fact, the only sure-fire way to survive a modern horror movie, you pretty much gotta be gay.
[pause]
Gale Weathers-Riley : So, why are you so sure that the killer is working by the rules of a horror remake?
Robbie : Well, the original Stab structure is pretty apparent.
Charlie Walker : Yeah, two kids killed in a house when their parents are away?
Robbie : And, then the school's 'hot chick' savage beyond recognition.
Charlie Walker : We all know where it goes from there...?
Sidney Prescott : A party.
Charlie Walker : Exactly. A party. Guaranteed third-act-main-cast bloodbath.
Robbie : Fingers crossed on some nudity for a change.

Robbie : You guys are unbelievable, you're playing fucking trivia games? The cops are gonna come for us, they're gonna shut down my website. We're so dead!
