Scream 7

About this episode

The episode discusses the new installment of the Scream franchise, focusing on character dynamics and the return of key figures in horror cinema.

Bring Your Daughter To the Slaughter Neve Campbell sat out Ghostface’s rampage in New York City so she could raise Isabel May to become her Final Girl replacement in Scream 7. Has Matthew Lillard risen from the dead to stalk veteran survivors like Courtney Cox, Mason Gooding, and Jasmin Savoy Brown in a brand new suburbia? And why did O.G. screenwriter Kevin Williamson take another stab at directing a scary movie after his debut, Teaching Mrs. Tingle, nearly killed his career? Join true crime junkies Marjorie, Arnie, and Stuart as they clean the blade of another postmodern slasher installment.
