The Rules in Scream (1996)
#1 – You can never have sex.
#2 – You can never drink or do drugs.
#3 – Never, ever, ever under any circumstances say, "I'll be right back." Because you won't be back.

#1 – The body count is always bigger
#2 – The death scenes are always much more elaborate. More blood, more gore.
#3 – If you want your sequel to become a franchise never ever... (Stu is cut-off by Dewey and never finishes the rule but the trailer for the movie finished rule, noting its conclusion as "Never, ever, under any circumstances assume the killer is dead.")

#1 – You got a killer who's going to be super human. Stabbing him won't work. Shooting him won't work. Basically in the third one you gotta cryogenically freeze his head, decapitate him, or blow him up.
#2 – Anyone including the main character can die.
#3 – The past will come back to bite you in the ass. Whatever you think you know about the past, forget it. The past is not at rest.

Largely presented out of order and by various characters, these include:
"An opening sequence, that blows the doors off" with a "way more extreme" kill.
The unexpected is the new cliché.
"Modern audiences get sappy to the rules of the original. So, the reverse has become the new standard."
"The only sure-fire way to survive a modern horror movie, you pretty much gotta be gay."
But most importantly:
Don't f-ck with the original.

#1 – Never trust the love interest.
#2 – The killer's motive is always connected to something in the past.
#3 The first victim always has a friend group that the killer is always part of.
