1 A. Background of the Study

People were born in a different background. There are so many different backgrounds of life, such as, religion, states, and ethnicity. Those differences stimulate people act differently to each other. They want to keep their personalities based on their background. Realize it or not people will be separated by invisible wall from other groups of society; they make their own group with the same background.

Like in the New York City, many groups have different background over there. English, Dutch, Italian and German live in New York City for many years. They can accept the background of each other because they have lived together for many years, and called of natives. When new comer comes, he can not be accepted directly. The natives can not receive the new comer style, the tradition even the region.

Everybody has ambition and he or she will do anything to reach his or her ambition. People have opportunity to do anything as what they want and like. Although, there are people who do not like with their ambition but they have right to reach their ambition. The other people who not like with their ambition have no right to prevent them to reach their ambition.

respected by peers and will reciprocate that respect, thus reinforcing the belief of deserving the popularity. Likewise, amicability is an important component of popularity, as a person who does not like others is unlikely to be liked by others. This reciprocal nature of interpersonal popularity is often overlooked by people (particularly the young) who are attempting to become popular: being loud may be successful in gaining attention, but is unlikely to provide mutual respect.

The psychology aspect is very interesting for the writer to create the literary work. Here, achieving popularity of the man as a part of psychological studies gets special attention from Wes Craven, one famous director. The ways that are done by one of major characters to fulfill his desire are clearly portrayed in one of his movies, Scream 4.

According to Fredenburg (1971: 4) everything in nature is unique, then it follows that every personality is different and must be studied in such a way as to capture this in this view; the psychology of personality is describing what is unique and peculiar to the individual.

According to the above explanatory, there is a relationship between literary work and psychology. That is the reasons why there are many authors displace the realism of life into the literary. One of them is Wes Craven who is the director of Scream 4 movie which is as researcher object.

Deming. It is edited by Peter McNulty. This movie is running for 105 minutes. It was released on 15 April 2011.

This drama movie is about murder people. Sherrie and Trudie (Lucy Hale and Shenae Grimes), two high schools girls, are stalked and then brutally killed by Ghostface, but this is the opening scene to Stab 6, which Rachel and Chloe (Anna Paquin and Kristen Bell) are watching. Rachel nags on about horror movie cliches, and then Chloe gets out a knife and stabs her, twice. This is the opening to Stab 7, which Jenny and Marnie (Aimee Teegarden and Britt Robertson) are watching. After Jenny pranks Marnie, she is killed. Jenny is threatened over the phone by a voice, and then chased through the house by Ghostface himself, leading to her demise in the garage.

Ten years since the events known as "The Woodsboro Massacre", Sidney Prescott (Neve Campbell) returns to her hometown as one of the stops on her book signing tour. However, things do not go well when Dewey Riley (David Arquette, who is now the Sheriff town) interrupts the signing, claiming that the murder of Jenny and Marnie are linked to a cellular phone somewhere in the bookstore vicinity. Everyone is surprised when the phone is found in the trunk of Sidney's rental car, along with bloody handprints.

Dewey assigns a police detail to patrol the place where Sidney will be staying, which happens to be the residence of her aunt Kate (Mary McDonnell), and cousin Jill (Emma Roberts). It is here that Sidney has a moment, in going to her cousin room, only to see her cousin ex boyfriend Trevor (Nico Tortorella) sneaking out a nearby window after Jill has asked him to leave.

Later on that evening, Jill and her friend Kirby (Hayden Panettiere) are watching a movie, when Kirby gets a call from someone sounding like 'Ghostface.' The voice claims he is hiding in the closet, which Kirby checks, but finds no one. The voice then claims that he is not standing in Jill's closet. In the house next door, their friend Olivia (Marielle Jaffe) is shocked when the killer bursts from her closet and gruesomely kills her. Sidney hears what is going on, and breaks into Olivia's place, attempting to stop the killer. However, he escapes just as the police arrive.

Sidney is taken to the local hospital to be checked over, but is upset when her book signing publicist Rebecca (Alison Brie) claims that these new killings can help the sales of Sidney's self help book. Sidney fires Rebecca on the spot, who heads to the facility parking garage, only to be menaced and then killed, before her body is thrown off the top of the garage onto the roof of a nearby news van.

that if the killer is attempting to kill people in a remake fashion. While some things may be similar, the killer style is not going to be exactly like the first time, and that to make the situation even more intense, they may even be recording the murders to post them on the internet.

When someone brings up that the end of the murder spree the first time was at a house party, Charlie and Robbie immediately assume that the killer may strike at their upcoming 'Stab-a-Thon,' where they will run all the movies in the Stab series based on the original murders. Some question why hold the 'Stab-a-Thon' in the first place, but the guys assume that they aren't the only party in town, as teenagers on a Friday night have plenty of other party options.

Gale manages to find the party and disguising herself, sets up cameras to view what is going on in the party. However, as she watches from her car, the cameras start to get covered up. Gale places a call to Dewey, before sneaking back into the party. While attempting to fix the camera in the rafters, she comes across a remote webcam, before being stabbed by the killer. Dewey shows up just as Gale collapses to the ground floor, but the killer has once again eluded capture. She survives and it taken to the local hospital.

her, she does not answer. As the two attempts to go over and get her, the killer appears and kills Kate. Sidney manages to escape and rushes over to Kirby place.

In the meanwhile, Jill, Kirby, Charlie, and Robbie are relaxing at Kirby’s place when Trevor shows up. Jill claims he was not invited, but Trevor claims he got a message from Jill's phone. Jill explains this to be impossible, as her phone has been missing recently. Kirby suggests that Jill should go to her room to look for it, and Trevor follows her.

Robbie indulges in some alcohol, and ends up going outside, where he is killed. Back inside, Kirby reveals to Charlie her penchant for horror movies, and that she finds him attractive. However, the moment is interrupted when Trevor reappears. Charlie and Trevor leave the living room, leaving Kirby alone. Jill comes from downstairs, and Sidney comes into the house, telling Jill and Kirby of Kate death. Ghostface appears, and chases them through the house, where Jill hides under a bed and Kirby hides in the basement.

Sidney is then attacked by Charlie with the knife, but manages to escape and she starts running to the front door and is then stabbed by Ghostface, confirming that there is a second killer. Ghostface removes his mask and it is revealed that Jill is also in on it. Jill then lets loose a torrid of hatred at Sidney, claiming that her cousin's fame was always rubbed in her face, and how sick she was of it. Jill now claims that soon, Sidney will die, and in the wake of the killer's spree, she will become famous instead. Charlie also assumes he is going to be part of the plan, but is shocked when Jill kills him as well. She then kills Trevor with a gun, and supposedly kills Sidney.

Jill then sets up the situation as if her ex boyfriend Trevor was the true killer, planting the knife, mutilating herself, leaving bits of her hair in his hand, and smashing and breaking things around the room. Dewey and the other officers eventually reach Kirby's place, and immediately, when it seems that Jill is still alive, the press descend and peg her as a survivor.

In the hospital, Dewey visits with Jill, who claims that maybe one day she can write a book with Gale, since they have the same injuries. Dewey also explains to Jill that Sidney will recover, revealing that she is still alive, and everything will be fine.

Everything seems to be ok, until Jill rises for one last scare, and Sidney kills her cousin with a bullet to the chest.
