Slash’n Fashion: Scream 2’s Bloody Red Carpet

Scream 2 held its premiere on this day, December 10, 1997, at the Graumans Chinese Theatre in Hollywood. Less than a year after the release of Scream, the star-studded cast of the new sequel hit the red carpet to show off some fearless fashion choices. Now, 23 years later, the Horror Style Council is reviewing the good, bad and outlandish looks that were on display.

Let the slicing n’ dicing begin!

Omar Epps / Phil Stevens

Rabbit: He’d impress more than just Jada in this coat!

Scarlett O’Scara: Missed the memo that the screening was NOT taking place outdoors.

Phantom of the Mall: Thoughts and prayers for whatever animal was skinned for that collar. Sorry, I just really loathe that coat.

Portia de Rossi / Sorority Sister Murphy

Rabbit: She got this dress at the same five and dime Ghostface shops at.

Scarlett O’Scara: It appears that the carpet does not match the drapes.

Phantom of the Mall: Bondage Ballerina Barbie. The black tights are not working for me.

Elisa Neal / Hallie McDaniel

Rabbit: She took wardrobe tips from Shania!

Scarlett O’Scara: Skin-tight-out-of-sight-but-totally-in-your-face-on-the-prowl perfection!

Phantom of the Mall: Shiny skintight animal print fabric does not work on everyone, but Elise Neal is killing it.

Sarah Michelle Gellar / Cici Cooper

Rabbit: Cici came ready to slay!

Scarlett O’Scara: Baby Domi-The Matrix in da club!

Phantom of the Mall: I love her to death but it looks like she’s smuggling a bunch of snacks into the theater in her tank top.

Tori Spelling / Stab’s Sidney Prescott

Rabbit: This fishnet ensemble would have been more appropriate for I Know What You Did Last Summer’s premiere.

Scarlett O’Scara: Red carpet friendly OR porn awards podium appropriate?

Phantom of the Mall: The wilted flower was a mistake, the dress, however, is fantastic.

Neve Campbell / Sidney Prescott

Rabbit: This was Neve’s second stop of the night. The first was to Medieval Times Dinner Theatre.

Scarlett O’Scara: Monster High-inspiring make-up meets Professor Plum-inspired lingerie—er, I mean, gown.

Phantom of the Mall: That is a stunning look. I wish the skirt was a little longer but everything else is A+

Jerry O’Connell / Derek Feldman

Rabbit: Derek’s definitely not “staying alive” in this outfit.

Scarlett O’Scara: If it has to be blue satin silk, then I’d prefer it be a bedsheet wrapped around his 6’2” fit body in a hotel room after the premiere and not a dress shirt on the red carpet. And lose the shoes…and the sibling.

Phantom of the Mall: Looks like he’s auditioning for Swingers 2, glad his brother was able to leave the golf course to join him.
