In the first Scream without Williamson as writer, the genre-bending franchise leaned too far into self-parody and generally lost its way. Plot conveniences abound, like the voice-changing tech that’s more sci-fi than slasher and that exists solely because the plot needs it to, lamentably undermining Roger Jackson's masterfully nefarious "Ghostface"...
All Scream sequels except for the still admittedly likable, forgivable Scream 3 are pretty close in ranking: they're all superior slashers, and there is no such thing as an actively bad Scream movie. Radio Silence's comic thriller accomplishes the considerable feat of delivering a worthy sequel for long-term fans and renewing the series for a new g...
The 2022 film was a fresh, appealing throwback. Scream VI is more confident, more character-driven and much scarier, indeed. And though there's no getting around how much Neve Campbell is missed, the franchise still has plenty of what's always been its secret weapon: heart.

The wildfire, leggy box-office success of the original film (which grossed $173 million, or well over $300 million today) inspired producers to rush a sequel out less than a year after the first. Especially when taking this into account, it's miraculous Scream 2 was a worthy successor—lighter on its feet, but red-blooded and tense, too. The returni...
The initial meh reaction—something close to dismissal—of 2011's Scream 4 (the final film of Wes Craven) is baffling and even a little infuriating.

- Scream. You had to know that the original Scream was going to be my #1, right? Similar to something I said in my Jurassic Park ranked list, 1996’s Scream isn’t just my favorite film of this franchise; it’s my second favorite movie of all time.
- Scream VI. You know what else makes me proud to be a Scream fan? As someone who adores Ready or Not and their segments in Southbound and V/H/S, I had a ton of faith in Radio Silence going into the 2022 film, but if you told me that their Scream movies would wind up so high on this list, I don't know if I'd believe you.
- Scream (2022) The pressure was on when Scream arrived in January 2022. It had been 11 years since we got a new installment, the state of the genre had changed drastically, and we lost the legendary Wes Craven.
- Scream 4. I've always felt Scream 4 deserved way more credit than it got upon release, but I find myself loving it more and more every time I watch it.
Scream 6 doesn’t achieve perfection, but by highlighting the newly dubbed Core Four, hitting all the right emotional beats, and dialing the brutality up to eleven, it comes dang close.
Mar 9, 2023 · Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett’s (aka Radio Silence) newest chapter in the “Scream” franchise finds the latest generation of Woodsboro survivors setting up a new life in New York City, far away from the suburban shadow of Ghostface. Unfortunately, their peace is short-lived. This is, after all, “Scream VI.”
