Scream VI (2023) Part 1

It's an Aughtsterion Christmas in March. One year after the Scream franchise returned with its 5th installment — which your hosts were full supporters of by the end — chapter 6 has arrived to officially mark the beginning of the Radio Silence era of the franchise. Yes, nü Scream was directed by the duo of Gillette and Bettinelli-Olpin, but the need to merge the original run of the franchise with its new class made it a kind of hybrid between Craven and the new guys. And with the tough work of an origin story out of the way, VI is able to soar exciting heights and, most importantly, really let Sam and Jordan feel like they're back hanging out with their Woodsboro friends again. Jenna Ortega is an irrefutable star. Melissa Barrera is the Sam she was meant to be. The twins are a total joy. Kirby is back, and the Core 4 are officially the new Ghost(face) Busters. This one goes out to you, Gale Weathers!   Produced by: Jordan Crucchiola Music by: Sam Wineman
