Scream (1996 film)/Quotes

Randy: There are certain rules that one must abide by in order to successfully survive a horror movie. For instance, number one: you can never have sex.
[Crowd boos at him]
Randy: Big no-no! Big no-no! Sex equals death, okay? Number two. You can never drink or do drugs.
[Crowd boos again, and raises their beer bottles]
Randy: No, listen! It's a sin! It's an extension of number one. And number three. Never, ever, ever, under any circumstances, say "I'll be right back." 'Cause you won't be back.
Stu: I'm gettin' another beer, you want one?
Randy: Yeah, sure.
Stu: I'll be right back!
Randy: You see, you push the laws, and you end up dead, okay? I'll see you in the kitchen with a knife.

—Now guess what Sidney does when confronted by the killer?
