Matthew Lillard Thought 'Scream' Would Flop
Original: Matthew Lillard Thought 'Scream' Was 'Lame' and 'Nobody' Would See It
Actor Matthew Lillard has revealed that when he signed on to the 1996 horror film 'Scream', he considered the project 'lame' and assumed nobody would see it. His comments offer a striking contrast to the movie's lasting impact: it became a major hit that revived the slasher genre and made Lillard's character Stu Macher a fan favourite across five sequels and decades of pop culture.
Why now: Lillard's candid reflection on doubting a film that became a horror classic is an amusing retrospective as the franchise remains in the spotlight.
