Henry Winkler talks about his death scene in Scream!!
Couch Surfing is a new series where they get actors to reminisce about iconic roles and/or films they’ve starred in. Henry Winkler (the Fonz) discussed the challenges of shooting his death scene in Wes Craven’s Scream as he played Woodsboro High’s Principal Himbry.
.
This is what he said:
“This one shot, with the bad guy with the mask coming into my eyeball, it took two hours to shoot. As he was stabbing me, Wes, in his professorial way, came up and he said, ‘Do you think it might be more excruciating? Do you think being stabbed you would scream a little louder?’ I said I could do that. Then, because I had tubes going up my clothes, coming out my shirt, out of my chest, they filled it back up [with fake blood], and then I screamed much louder.”
