OVER BLACK SCENE CARD
Scream Turns the Phone Call Into Rules-as-Attack
The opening weaponizes genre literacy. The caller does not merely threaten; he turns trivia, flirtation, delay, and rules into a control interface.
Why it works
The house is already invaded by voice before the body arrives. Every question reprices safety by making movie knowledge a fragile survival protocol.
