As of last month, the Scream movies have officially been around for over 25 years now, which means 25 years of Hollywood premieres. Even the cast of the new movie managed to hit the red carpet during a press day, despite the premiere being derailed by Omicron.

Seeing the cast all dolled up on the red carpet had us feeling nostalgic, so we went back to see what Neve Campbell, David Arquette, Courteney Cox, and the other stars of the first four movies wore to the premieres. (Warning: Some of these looks are a bit chaotic — looking at you, Skeet Ulrich!)

Warning: Spoilers about the "Scream" films below!

First up, let's take a look at the stars at the original Scream's 1996 premiere in Los Angeles.

Neve Campbell, who played final girl Sidney Prescott.

And here's Matthew, Skeet, and Neve looking a lot happier than they did at the end of the movie.
