    okay, so I want to target keywords "free essays" script that is responsible for categories etc runs as essays.php SEO-wise is it better to change that to free_essays.php too?

    Yes, the URL is a small factor in SEO, but a factor nonetheless

    Free-Essays.php is better than Free_Essays.php, just so you know.

    Yeah, there was a write up by matt cutts on the hyphen-underscore topic as well in which he says that hyphens are definitely better.
