screaming bloody murder

A strong accusation of wrongdoing.

At the baseball game they were charging $8 for a hot dog. Everyone was screaming bloody murder.

scream bloody murder

Going beyond complaining about something. More like, carrying on about it as though whatever you're complaining about is as serious an offense as murder.

One Employee to another: I don't like layoffs either. Believe me, if they lay me off, I'll scream bloody murder too. But, there's nothing we can do about it.
