Episode 017 - Ready Or Not

When Wes Craven passed in 2015, many of us thought we would never see another "Scream" film again. However, in 2019, Paramount Pictures announced that Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett (who along with producer Chad Villella make up "Radio Silence") would be the new intrepid directors to direct the fifth entry in the franchise. Earlier in 2019, Matt and Tyler directed the comedic horror film "Ready or Not." The film was successful with critics and at the box office. Join Ryan to discuss "Ready or Not" in depth, and how this film could inform and foreshadow critical aspects of the new "Scream" movie. Matt Neglia, Dan Bayer, and Josh Parham appear as the panel of film critics and reunite with Ryan for the first time since his time at NextBestPicture.com.
