What’s your favorite scary movie podcast? The Cinematic Schematic is back for our first episode of the year to look back at Wes Craven and Kevin Williamson’s franchise dedicated to riffing on the most popular horror and slasher movie tropes of the day, the Scream series. As a prelude to our upcoming Scream(2022) review, we’re joined by returning guests Laron Chapman, Zachary Burns, and Brock Lay to reassess each of the first four entries to determine whether or not the Scream series lives up to its reputation and warrants continuing. Whether they are telling a clever whodunnit or providing commentary on violence in the media, Scream is a franchise that’s never been short on ideas or things to say about the horror and pop culture of its day. Do Wes Craven’s love letters to the genre he helped build in the 80s still remain relevant in today’s horror movie scene? Tune in to the full conversation for our verdicts and stay subscribed to hear our full Scream (2022) review the second it goes live.
