As much as the first Scream lovingly poked the bear that was the 80s slasher genre, they played right into the same sensibilities those franchises did, as a sequel came out less than a year after the original was released to surprise success. It took a couple weeks to catch on. But once 1996's Scream gathered the best word of mouth since Pulp Fiction from a couple years before, it sure didn't take long for a sequel to get greenlit. Original writer Kevin Williamson, now the new hot writer on the block, was able to churn out a script, with original director Wes Craven back in the director's chair. But, in a story that will oft get repeated through this entire film series, problems started taking hold of the production. Not the least of which was something called the internet getting a hold of the shooting script and leaking who the original killers were supposed to be. With rapid rewrites and ever changing schedules, were Craven and company able to release a film amongst a crowded end of 1997 (which included a little film called Titanic) that proved to be at least watchable? Join Garrett, Matt, and Adam as they dissect Scream 2 and try to answer that question. As well as a whole host of others, including the question of whether Adam had actually seen this damn movie or not before this viewing.

Watch this episode HEREWith Scream 7 coming out this Friday, we're ranking all 6 Scream movies
Ahead of the hotly anticipated Scream 7, we thought we would discuss the last time Kevin Williamson wrote a Scream film. Scream 4 sees Wes Craven's final directorial duties, as Sydney Prescott returns to Woodsboro just in time for another slaughter. Arriving after a slew of torture porn, paranormal films and a bunch of gritty reimagining of classic horror remakes, Scream 4 centres around the idea of remakes and the state of horror in the early 2000s. But how does Scream 4 stack up when compared to the rest of the franchise? Why does it look so weird? Is it a worthwhile instalment or is this one that makes Scream feel dated? Remember to hit that subscribe button and leave us a lovely review. There's new episodes every week, and we cover horror movies from new releases with spoiler filled and spoiler free reviews, to old classics and B movie gems.

This week on Forgotten Cinema: Lead Up, the Mikes tackle "Scream" (2022), or as it should be called, "Scream 5".As the first entry in the franchise not directed by Wes Craven, this chapter is in the hands of Radio Silence, and both Mike Butler and Mike Field think they do a strong job carrying the torch. The film delivers solid kills, balances legacy characters with a new generation effectively, and even manages to handle the death of a major returning character with respect and emotional weight.The connection to the original film is well woven into the story, grounding the new cast in the mythology without feeling entirely forced. That said, the Mikes do have a few issues; the Billy Loomis twist is a bit hard to swallow, and some of the logic behind Ghostface's kills does not quite hold up under scrutiny.Even with those criticisms, "Scream 5" stands as a confident and entertaining revival of the franchise, proving that the series can survive beyond its original creator. As the penultimate episode in the Scream Lead Up series, it sets the stage nicely for one final stop before "Scream 7".So join the Mikes as the go through each film in the "Scream" saga leading up to the release of "Scream 7".What are your thoughts on these Radio Silence Screams? Let us know in the comments!

After a break from the genre, The Three Men and a Retrospective Podcast has finally returned to horror! With a new Scream film hitting theaters this month, the co-hosts embark on reviewing the entire groundbreaking film series. Every franchise has to begin somewhere, and some believe that the 1996 original is the best of the entire series. But is it? Join Garrett, Matt, and Adam as they begin their quest of answering that question. Listen to Adam and Garrett discuss how they initially saw the film that redefined the horror genre. They also talk about how Wes Craven essentially took the job that would help him change horror with Ghost Face in the 90s the same way Freddy did the same in the 80s. Finally, how do they all feel about the film today? Start screaming podcast listeners, and prepare for your ears to take in the Scream Retrospective series!

Este fue un podcast doloroso pero feliz. Doloroso porque es una despedida al gran narrador que fue Rob Reiner, que nos dejó de manera trágica y repentina. Y feliz porque hablamos de una de las rachas más impresionantes de la historia de Hollywood: This is Spinal Tap (1984), Stand by Me (1986), The Princess Bride (1987), When Harry Met Sally (1989), Misery (1990) y A Few Good Men (1992). Para ello Hermes initó a la antropóloga y académica María Paz Peirano (tal vez la recuerde de podcasts como el KruegerCast de Wes Craven's New Nightmare) y nos dedicamos a celebrar todas estas películas que tienen al menos dos cosas en común. Uno, son todas de Rob Reiner y dos, son todas más buenas que el pan. Y recuerde que en www.patreon.com/hermeselsabio puede escuchar podcasts exclusivos, pre-estrenos, taller de cine y más.

This week on Forgotten Cinema: Lead Up, the Mikes continue their road to "Scream 7" with "Scream 4", Wes Craven's return to Woodsboro more than a decade after the original trilogy.Both Mike Butler and Mike Field still enjoy this entry, especially for its strong kills and surprisingly ahead-of-its-time themes about streaming culture, internet fame, and the performance of violence for an audience. The film feels eerily prescient in how it tackles social media obsession before it completely took over the world.That said, there is a lot of unmined potential here. Butler feels the third act drops the ball slightly with a convenient ending and not doing quite enough with the Ghostface killers in the final stretch. Both Mikes also agree that Hayden Panettiere's Kirby could have been positioned as the new Final Girl. With her horror movie expertise and charisma, she could have served as a fascinating long-term foil to Ghostface.The Mikes also dig into the long-standing rumor that "Scream 4" was intended to launch a new trilogy centered on a killer who gets away with it, only to be hunted by new Ghostfaces in future installments. It is an intriguing idea that makes the existing ending feel like a missed opportunity.Still sharp, still brutal, and more relevant than ever, "Scream 4" stands as a bold attempt to reinvent the franchise, even if it stops just short of fully committing to its most interesting ideas.So join the Mikes as the go through each film in the "Scream" saga leading up to the release of "Scream 7".What are your thoughts on this current end of the "Sydney" saga and how it compares to your opinions of 5 and 6? Let us know in the comments!
Welcome to our ongoing coverage of the Scream franchise! As it turns out, Scream 4 is one that Ashley likes too much, and Sara too little, and throughout the episode, we attempt to come to some sort of consensus on this oddball installment. This episode also features not one, but TWO cozy horror-themed games to spice up your listening experience. All we know for sure is that we will always be obsessed with Wes Craven, need to plan a Stabathon immediately, and love all you #hauntedhomebodies out there.

Cillian Murphy returned to horror at the end of the latest 28 Years Later, Rachel McAdams teamed up with another horror director in a movie about a plane, and we are getting a 6th sequel to Wes Craven's Scream.

Wes Craven's now seminal meta slasher hit the big screen 30 years ago this year, and we're set to review all of the films in the series leading up to new one. First up, the one that started it all! Come back next episode for Scream 2!
We're going full spoiler mode.
This week on DtW, we're throwing back to the OG meta-horror flick, 1996's Scream! Dan joins Raul's rewatch of the series leading up to a new 2026, Neve-centered sequel to discuss the first film of the franchise. Veteran horror director Wes Craven helms one of the first films to dissect it's genre within the plot and dialogue with seemingly endless nods to, cameos from and easter eggs related to classic horror from all generations. The film is dripping with 90s personality and stands as one of the prototypical films discussing film within it's story, but is it held up entirely by nostalgia or has it remained relevant 30 years later? Listen in as our hosts take a stab at it!
In honor of the upcoming release of the 7th film in the series, we are coving Wes Craven and Kevin Williamson's classic, Scream (1996). Headed up by Neve Campbell, this ground breaking meta teen slasher opens with the most memorable scene with Drew Barrymore.

Welcome back listeners! It's taken far too long, but The Fear Response is finally taking on the Wes Craven classic, Scream! Much like The Craft, Scream was a sleepover classic of our generation. Scream is a smart, fun and self-aware horror film that turned the whole genre on its head in 1996. Featuring an amazing ensemble cast including Neve Campbell, Courtney Cox, Skeet Ulrich, David Arquette, Matthew Lillard (screw you Tarantino), and freaking Drew Barrymore, this film was a 90s powerhouse from a master director. Join John and Jenna as they gush over this classic! Sensitive Content Warning: this podcast discusses themes of mental health and horror cinema. Topics addressed could be upsetting to some.
The countdown to SCREAM 7 continues this week with our re-cap of Scream 4. Was this movie ahead of its time? We talk about everything from the "extended/alternate" version to the infamous filter, and lots of little tidbits and opinions along the way. And as always, we've picked out the most loathsome characters from the film, so join us at the end of the episode in voting for which one was the most deserving to die.

The Mikes are starting their "Scream" Lead Up series with the original film. Mike Field loves this film and the Scream series as a whole; there's not much if anything he can find wrong with Wes Craven's original film. Mike Butler didn't quite "get it" when he was younger. It was a bit too meta for him and he wasn't as knowledgeable at the time about horror films. Now that he get's it, he still has the same big issue...Billy Loomis. They discuss facts about it's production, how it plays with horror tropes, why Ghostface is a great killer, and what makes "Scream" one of the seminal horror films of all time. So join the Mikes as the go through each film in the "Scream" saga leading up to the release of "Scream 7".Which "Scream" are you looking forward to us discussing the most? Let us know in the comments!
This is an episode my guest and I have discussed doing for a couple of years, and with the release of a new film with the subject of the episode, it made sense. The topic is Academy Award nominee Rachel McAdams, who has shown herself to be a versatile performer in a variety of films over the years. My guest is fellow critic and podcaster Morgan Roberts, the host of Female Gaze: The Film Club. We focus on the early part of McAdams's career in film with Nick Cassavetes's "The Notebook", Mark Waters's "Mean Girls", Wes Craven's "Red Eye" and Thomas Bezucha's "The Family Stone". I hope you enjoy!
Welcome to The B-Side! Here we talk about movie stars! Not the movies that made them famous or kept them famous, but the ones that they made in between. Today we celebrate Canadian greatness. We celebrate Rachel McAdams! Our B-Sides include The Lucky Ones, The Time Traveller's Wife, Passion, and Every Thing Will Be Fine. We also spend some time on The Hot Chick, and do a couple of Rachel McAdams-inspired quizzes at the top of the episode. It's fun! We talk about her new Sam Raimi movie Send Help. We reflect on McAdams' stratospheric rise to stardom within the first few years (and films) of her career, that time she dated Ryan Gosling, and her many accents over the years. We also shout-out the sheer amount of great filmmakers she's worked with over the years: Wes Craven, Ira Sachs, Woody Allen, Terrence Malick, Brian De Palma, Cameron Crowe, Antoine Fuqua, Tom McCarthy, Wim Wenders, Mark Osborne (animated), Sam Raimi, and Kelly Fremon Craig. That's incredible! There's the limited amount of press she has done over the years (though this podcast episode is lovely, about her and her dear friend) and the fact that the hit movies she's starred in throughout her career are mostly not made for movie theaters anymore. We speak to her comedy chops and her constant alignment with the directors she works with. She's a pro! And finally, we show some appropriate respect to the Michael Sucsy-directed romance The Vow. The woman loves a movie wherein time is manipulated!
Camping out with the family can be murder. Our good friend Amanda Waltz joins us for the conclusion of BANG-UARY with the 1977 Wes Craven classic THE HILLS HAVE EYES.
