Sidney: Neve Campbell
Billy: Skeet Ulrich
Gail Weathers: Courtney Cox
Casey: Drew Barrymore
The movie opens up with Casey (Drew Barrymore) getting a phone call from
a creep telling her he knows where she's at and what she's doing.....
and it stays that scary the whole way through. Then the masked
killer(s) begins to stalk Sidney (Neve Campbell). The killer happens to
be the same killer that killed Sidney's mom 1 year ago that day.
Anyway, since this page is about Skeet Ulrich, I better at least talk
about his role.... He plays Billy, Sidney's (very hot) boyfriend... and
during the movie at one point he is a suspect..... but so is just about
everyone else.
All in all, this movie is probably one of my very favorites... If I
were to grade it, it would definetly get an A.....

Ok, Scream is definatly the best movie I have ever seen, but Skeet is definatly the HOTTEST guy i have ever seen. So put them together kids! Billy (Skeet) is Sidney 's(Neve Campell) boyfriend, who is a suspect in the movie. I think he looks the best he ever has in this movie. Casey is Drew Barrymore (who i love) ok so ther's a psyco killer who is in love with scary movies. The voice of the killer is kind of rigid. It kind of sounds like a 40 or 50 year old man and when the killer's face to face with victims, you never hear them speak. There are so many suspects. IT's GREAT! I recomend this movie to everyone. IT'S THE BEST THANKS!--submitted by pnotaro@ccip.com
The latest, and possibly last, Wes Craven outing accomplishes one of the greatest feats in moviedom--it is a thriller and a comedic rush--all
at the same time.
"Scream" debuted right in the middle of the Christmas movie season, and
being a drastic change from other "family" movies of that time instantly
propelled it to the highest grossing teen-age slasher film of all time.
The premise of this picture is nothing that could be considered unusual
to fans of the genre. It centers on a serial killer that loves to play
games with his/her victims before killing them. Strange, frightening
phone calls, movie trivia, and fast moving chase scenes, are this
villain's specialty. This killer invades home after home, slashing all
the way.
This movie is perfectly cast. Although, this movie is billed
alphabetically, Neve Campbell, (as our heroine Sydney), and Skeet
Ulrich, (as her mysterious boyfriend Billy), are in my opinion far and
away the breakout stars. Along with Rose McGowen, (Sydney's best friend
Tatum), and Matthew Lillard, (as the comic relief Stu), they take us on
a ride that this sleepy town of Woodsboro will not soon forget. One of
not only murder, but as Tatum puts it after the first murder occurs,
"spider movie murder." As the killer's chosen conquest, Sydney barely
escapes with her life on more than one occasion, all while dealing with
the rape and murder of her own mother, which occurred almost a year to
the day before.
"Scream" manages to keep the audience guessing until the last reel. As
the suspense begins to build, Randy, (Jamie Kennedy), the resident movie
buff, explains the "Rules", that go into successfully surviving a horror
movie. "If they would just watch Prom Night they'd save time," he
suggests.
Joining the ensemble cast is Courtney Cox as trashy tabloid journalist
Gale Weathers; David Arquette as the dopey deputy with a heart of gold,
Dewey; Henry Winkler as the high school principal; and Drew Barrymore
who gives perhaps one of the best performances of her career, as the
tortured Casey.
While the movie does have some gory parts, it could best be classified
as a classic whodunit. Although the constant references to past horror
movies does occasionally verge on the edge of campiness, it makes up for
it with classic one liners that you will be sure to have repeated at
least ten times on the way home. "Scream" also provides enough sheer
terror to live up to it's title. But it is the presence of Ulrich, who
somehow manages to comfort and haunt the audience at the same time, that
makes this movie worth watching. This man's star is going to be shining
bright for a long time.
I would recommend this movie to anyone. If it is still playing near
your home, check it out! If not, don't miss it on video. I alone have
seen it five times, and each time I find something new. "Scream" has
something for everyone. As Billy sums it up, "We are all part of one big
movie. And you can't pick your genre."

This flick about teenage witches has already become a cult classic to the 12-24 year old crowd, and with no wonder. It stars Neve Campbell, (Party of Five), Robin Tunney, (Empire Records), Faruza Balik, and a list of many more. It begins with three witches who long for a fourth so that they can have a circle. Enter Tunney, who plays a natural witch who just transferred to their high school. Before you can twitch your nose three times, they begin casting spells left and right, bringing havoc on those who do them wrong, including unsuspecting football jock Chris, (Skeet Ulrich). Skeet doesn't have a huge part in this picture, but he succeeds once again by stealing scenes from his leading ladies. I would defiantely recommend this film to everyone, but keep in mind that some of the scenes get pretty intense, so it may not be for the faint of heart.

Boys is quite a confusing picture that stars Winona Ryder, Lucas Haas, and Skeet Ulrich. It appears that Ryder's character is on the run from something or someone, so she hides out in an all boy school, and falls for a much younger rebel, (Haas). This movie is not exactly one of my favorites. I feel like with the cast they had the plot could have been much better. But, Skeet who once again has very limited scenes, does a great job as baseball player Bud Valentine. Just the presence of Ulrich,Ryder, and Haas makes this a movie worth seeing. Just don't expect a lot from the plot. Rating:*1/2 --submitted by Crystal Edwards
This movie stars Sharon Stone as a woman sentenced to death for murder. While she is on Death Row, she becomes smitten with a young lawyer, (Rob Morrow) who becomes smitten right back, and then spends all of his time--you guessed it-- trying to keep her from dying. This is defiantley a real tear jerker, and a really good film all in all. The film really takes off however when Skeet Ulrich (playing Stone's younger brother) enters the picture. Skeet is known for playing only saints and scumbags, and he defiantely shines as a saint in this one. The dramatic scenes he has are simply heartbreaking, and he delivers them with his usual flair. It's too bad he doesn't have a bigger part. But, with that aside, LAST DANCE is a good movie, with believable characters and an ending that will leave you talking for days.
