SCREAM 7 captures the digital age of 2026, representing conspiracy theories (Stu is Alive, AI, etc) and parasocial relationships. This brilliant theme seems to have most viewers missing the forest through the trees. It wouldn’t be the modern version SCREAM if there weren’t controversy. New! Ep. 366 - Scream 7 Digital Age Theme: Conspiracy Theories (Introducing Showers Shorts) - Listen on Apple, Spotify, and YouTube! - Also featuring a coda of the Sidney (Neve Campbell) vs. Laurie (Jamie Lee Curtis) competition!

Neve Campbell just confirmed she will star as Sidney Prescott in SCREAM 8. This will be the second chapter in the new Sidney era, much like SCREAM 2. Wes Craven constructed dozens of set pieces in his 1997 film with elegance, suspense, and filmmaking gravitas. New!

We are literally doomed American High School English Teacher reads real responses from her student’s assignment after reading The Great Gatsby We have a serious education issue in America and if we don’t address it, we have a horrible future ahead of us These kind of responses are to be expected because 12th grade reading results in 2024 in America showed that reading levels right now the lowest they’ve ever been since the assessment began in 1992

Happy November! One of the best parts of Halloween Ends is to experience the peace and hope that comes for Laurie Strode as we move into November, away from Michael Myers and Halloween. 🍂 Personally, November is my favorite month. It’s the ideal weather; you get the last bit of Halloween, Thanksgiving and peak autumn, and the beginning of Christmas; and it’s the coziest month of the year. 🍁

Applying rigid old school in-office rules in the year 2026 for people in a creative industry in an expensive terrible traffic city is a BRILLIANT idea. Nothing drives creativity like micro-managing. Inspiring stuff and a great sign that upper management knows what they are doing!

Amanda Seyfried, you have to stop. Your drip too hard. Your swag too different. Your style too tough. They’ll kill you.

Imagine if I had told you, even just five days ago, that Kelly Clarkson would be publicly battling a store in Brooklyn over a mechanical bird named Molly. You wouldn’t have believed me.

Happy birthday to Neve Campbell! ❤️‍🔥 From SCREAM (1996) to SCREAM 7, Neve has gifted us with Sidney Prescott for 30 years. Over seven films, Neve brought Sidney to life with incredible nuance and internal expression that made us see ourselves in Sidney. We love you, Neve ❤️‍🔥

The fact that Tune-Yards score for I Love Boosters is unlike anything you've heard in decades, interacts w the movie in ways that scores rarely do, caused TikTok trends, and are actual hummable tunes that ppl remember- is something we will see play out during Oscar nominations.
We’re nine full months into 2026 and Tune-Yards’ music score in Boots Riley’s I LOVE BOOSTERS is still the best score of the year, and it’s not even close.
