Tone: Humour, Horror, and Pacing Scream’s tonal dexterity is one of its most impressive feats. Craven and Williamson merge horror and comedy without diffusing dread; wry jokes and pop-culture references punctuate scenes but do not undercut the suspense.

Craven’s playful yet controlled use of horror language demonstrates that mastery of form can be used to critique the form itself. This iteration of the “final girl” trope modernizes
