Scream a little louder! We're celebrating the 25th anniversary of “Scream 3,” the final chapter (for a while!) in Wes Craven's iconic slasher trilogy. Join us as we revisit the Hollywood horrors facing Sidney Prescott (Neve Campbell), Gale Weathers (Courteney Cox), and Dewey Riley (David Arquette). We'll dissect the killer's motives, discuss the addition of stars like Patrick Dempsey, Parker Posey, and Scott Foley, and ponder how real life events changed the direction of the film. Was “Scream 3” a fitting end? Or did the script changes by Ehren Kruger fall short of Kevin Williamson's original vision? Joining us for this discussion is one of our favorite guests, Mark J. Parker of the Release Date Rewind podcast, who is not only the king of anniversaries, but has also been with us on every single Scream episode we have done to date!

Pacey's got problems all over his life. His FWB arrangement with Jen still hasn't led to any actual sex because they've never quite recaptured the magic of their one good kiss on Witch Island. He's failing most of his classes, so he needs Joey's help to get him through midterms, and the cost for the latter is partnering her in a ballroom class so that she can try to win the dance school's college scholarship. AND his asking her advice about his hypothetical no-strings sex friend is a big mistake, since there are only so many possible candidates. Plus, after sneaking in to Dawson's room to attempt sex, Pacey left a condom on the floor, and Dawson's on the hunt to find out what's going on. Since he starred in Gale's human interest story, Jack has started getting emails, including from another gay kid who only lives two towns over.

This week, Tommy is joined by actor Mason Gooding who you will see starring opposite Olivia Holt in the upcoming romantic comedy horror film, Heart Eyes. Heart Eyes is about a masked killer who terrorizes romantic couples on Valentine’s Day. The killer has a new target, and Mason’s character spends the most romantic night of the year trying to stay alive. You also know and love Mason from a bunch of other fan-favorite projects (Love Victor, Y2K, I Want You Back), and perhaps most notably as Chad Meeks-Martin in the Scream franchise. Today, Mason opens up about if he is as smooth in real life as his character in Heart Eyes, what he loves about working in the horror genre, why he jumped at the opportunity to work with Olivia Holt, how he builds authentic chemistry with his co-stars, why human connection is so important to him, how to master the “slow motion scare” in a horror film, his reaction to the Scream 7 script, the first look into what we can expect with the latest film, if he always knew that he would be a part of Scream 7, what he really thinks about spoilers leaking online as the movie is being filmed, how much filming he has left to do, the unexpected thing he did to put himself out there to land a dream role, how he’s cultivated a positive mindset over the years, what he has never publicly said before, and so much more.

Welkom bij Nerd Culture #194 waarin we diep duiken in de wereld van films, series en alles nerdy! Deze week staat in het teken van horror, en daarom hebben we een speciale gast: Shelly van Seventer! Samen met haar bespreken we het laatste nieuws, waaronder Matthew Lillard's terugkeer in Scream 7 en de eerste beelden van Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein. Daarnaast neemt Shelly ons mee in haar top vijf horrorfilms en blikken we vooruit op de spannendste horrorfilms van 2025. Scream 7 pakt uit met terugkeer Matthew Lillard Matthew Lillard is officieel bevestigd voor Scream 7, wat speculaties aanwakkert over de terugkeer van zijn personage, Stu Macher. Lillard heeft altijd beweerd dat Stu nog leeft, en zijn Instagram-post lijkt dit te bevestigen. Het is echter onduidelijk of hij echt Stu speelt of dat de film op een andere manier oud-acteurs terugbrengt. Naast Lillard keert ook Scream 3-acteur Scott Foley terug, wat vragen oproept over hoe deze personages worden ingepast. Scream 7, geregisseerd door originele schrijver Kevin Williamson, verschijnt op 27 februari 2026 en brengt Neve Campbell en Courteney Cox terug, samen met nieuwe castleden zoals Joel McHale. Eerste blik op Oscar Isaac als Dr. Frankenstein Netflix heeft een eerste beeld vrijgegeven van Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein, met Oscar Isaac als Victor Frankenstein. De film verschijnt in november. In een boodschap tijdens het Next on Netflix-evenement deelde del Toro dat hij al 50 jaar met het verhaal bezig is en het als een autobiografie beschouwt. De getoonde beelden tonen Isaac tegenover Mia Goth als een aristocrate en Jacob Elordi als het monster, met lang zwart haar en grijze, gehechte huid. De cast omvat ook Christoph Waltz en Charles Dance. De film is onderdeel van del Toro's samenwerking met Netflix, waaronder Pinocchio en Cabinet of Curiosities. Wat mogen we in 2025 verwachten qua horror films? In deze podcast blikken we vooruit op de spannendste horrorfilms van 2025. We beginnen met The Monkey, gebaseerd op Stephen King's korte verhaal, die op 21 februari verschijnt. Vervolgens bespreken we Opus, een mysterieuze psychologische horrorfilm die op 14 maart in de bioscoop komt. Daarna duiken we in The Conjuring: Last Ride, het nieuwste deel in de populaire franchise. Ook Final Destination 6 staat op de planning, een terugkeer na 13 jaar afwezigheid. Tot slot kijken we uit naar Return to Silent Hill, de langverwachte gameverfilming die fans van psychologische horror zeker zal aanspreken.

We are about one week into President Donald Trump's new term. So, we've got Kevin Williamson from The Dispatch back on the show to go over what happened. Or, perhaps more accurately, what didn't happen. Williamson said Trump's first week was relatively light on gun action, especially compared to other issues. He said that may not tell us where Trump, who he described as transactional on most issues, on gun policy. But it did give insight into how his administration prioritizes gun rights initiatives. Williamson also gave an overview of his new series on the ATF. He described the agency's origins, overarching purpose, and ways it could be reformed or improved. He argued that the most substantive changes would require congressional action, but he said Trump could make improvements if he chooses the right director.

Scream 7 directed by Kevin Williamson, starring Neve Campbell and Courteney Cox, is now two weeks into production. Last week, a bombshell was dropped when it was announced that Patrick Dempsey will not play Sidney's husband in Scream 7.

Then, Ryan is joined by Justin McArthur to discuss predictions for Scream 7. Ryan and Justin outline their predictions for which characters (and actors) will survive and die in Scream 7, as well as who is the killer or in the opening scene.

The concentration of power in the executive branch is a troubling trend in modern politics, regardless of which individual occupies the highest office. Drawing insightful historical parallels, we are challenged to critically reexamine the role and scope of the presidency itself. With nuance and intellectual rigor, Americans confront the sobering reality that the most dangerous job in the world may be the one that wields the nation's most formidable arsenal. Kevin Williamson from The Dispatch joins the show.

Welcome to Multiverse News, Your source for Information about all your favorite fictional universes. Joker: Folie a Deux, the long awaited and much discussed follow up to 2019's surprise hit Joker, finally hit theaters last weekend and the numbers across the board, critically and financially, leave something to be desired. The $200 million-budgeted, psychological thriller/musical/courtroom drama sequel debuted to just $37 million domestically, a soft bow certainly impacted by poor critical reviews and a D CinemaScore from audiences – a record worst for the comic book film genre. While promoting his new film We Live In Time via an interview with Esquire, Andrew Garfield spoke on his willingness to reprise his role as The Amazing Spider-Man, saying quote, “For sure, I would 100% come back if it was the right thing, if it's additive to the culture, if there's a great concept or something that hasn't been done before that's unique and odd and exciting and that you can sink your teeth into. I love that character, and it brings joy. If part of what I bring is joy, then I'm joyful in return.” Last week The Hollywood Reporter released an editorial analysis of the state of the Star Wars franchise after being bought by Disney 12 years ago. The report crunched and discussed numbers including budgets, revenues, critical and audience reviews, viewership, and streaming subscriptions, among other verticals for all the projects beginning with The Force Awakens through The Acolyte. The latest buzz from the rumor mill via The Production List, Blue Beetle and Cobra Kai star Xolo Mariduena appears to be attached to Marvel Studios Nova series.
