God Quote by Melissa Barrera
“I have an interesting relationship with 'Scream,' because I didn't see it when it first came out. I was six years old and thank God my parents... good parenting skills in not letting me see it when it came out. But then I had a period of my life where I was obsessed with scary movies when I was 11, 12, 13, up until 15 probably.”
