Emergence
The then unknown Kevin Williamson wrote a script called Scary Movie within three days of seeing a television report about the Gainesville Ripper . Due to financial difficulties, he hoped to be able to sell the book quickly and actually found several bidders who drove the price up enormously. In the end, Bob Weinstein , who had been made aware of the book by the producers Cathy Konrad & Cary Woods, and Dan Halsted & Oliver Stone remained as bidders on the one hand. Williamson accepted a bid from Weinstein and ended up receiving about $ 400,000. The reason for this decision was that Williamson assumed that Weinstein would actually like the book and have it filmed soon.
After Weinstein acquired the script, preproduction of the material began immediately. Those in charge at Dimension Films wanted Wes Craven as a director early on, but he initially showed little interest. Also George A. Romero and Sam Raimi refused to cooperate.
When Drew Barrymore could be won for the lead role , Weinstein approached Wes Craven again and tried to convince him of the project. Craven was impressed with Barrymore's cast, but still wasn't ready to direct. Craven has been too focused on directing horror films in the past and wanted to tackle other projects. Then he met a 12-year-old fan who asked him when he was going to make a real movie again. It was then that Craven realized he wanted to make a real horror film again, and he asked Weinstein if the job was still available, whereupon he was signed.
When Barrymore gave up the lead role of Sidney shortly before filming, Craven initially wanted to leave the project. But Barrymore was able to convince him of the idea that she would take on the role of Casey Becker and that would do the film good. The main role was taken over to Neve Campbell , which she played again in all sequels.
