The only sequel to Scream that achieved comparable success was Scream 2.
 By late 1998, Scream 2 broke February opening weekend records for its box-office takings in 1998 and held the record until December 15, 2000, being replaced by What Women Want (2000)
 Unlike the first two movies, Scream 3 was not well received critically and made less domestically at the box office (though still did very well), taking $89
