Scream 7 directed by Kevin Williamson, starring Neve Campbell and Courteney Cox, is now two weeks into production.

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.

195 - The Death of the Requel and Scream 7’s New Hope
We begin the new year with an essay written by Ryan about how the requel formula was an unsustainable way to dominate most franchise slasher movies in the modern day. Ryan recalls a essay from Episode 69 which described many concerns about the requel format, many of which came to bear. Ryan reads through his essay about how the requel formula has slowly died since 2022 and a new era of horror is emerging around “Scream 7.” Then, Jess Melendez joins him to muse over the philosophy and ideas presented in the essay.
