Episode Three: SCREAM 3
from The Pod and the Pendulum · host Mike Snoonian
By 2000, the slasher revival had started to wind down, and Scream 3 shows the effects of a series that maybe had run out of ideas, and instead became a sort of parody of itself. Does that mean the end of the planned trilogy is out of charms? Our special guest, Becky Sayers (Dread Central, co-director The Last Buck Hunt) tells Mike and Jerry why the broader, more comic tone was a fitting capper to the series at the time. We also look at the movie that almost was where Mathew Lillard would have returned as a more Machiavellian Stu. All this, plus a discussion of how McDreamy really gets Mike and you have our deep dive of our almost-to-an-end first series of episodes.
