“Scream” Promos Profile the Jock, Fool, Innocent and Loner

While Kevin Williamson’s script for Wes Craven’s Scream was clever in joshing on the cliches in horror, MTV’s attempting the same with the new “Scream” series, premiering on June 30th.

Four character profiles have been released that detail the Jock, Fool, Innocent and Loner. The only problem is, they all look like one of the “cool kids” to me. At least the original Scream was profiling horror tropes, while, for whatever reason, the series is focused on characterization. The irony is that, in the first episode, they fail awkwardly.

While neither Trace nor myself hated the debut pilot presentation, we were both left disappointed and hoping for more in the coming episodes (read my review; here’s Trace’s review).

In “Scream,” “What starts as a YouTube video going viral, soon leads to problems for the teenagers of Lakewood and serves as the catalyst for a murder that opens up a window to the town’s troubled past.“

The cast of “Scream” includes Willa Fitzgerald, Taylor-Klaus, Bobby Campo, Connor Weil and Joel Gretsch.

Based on one of the greatest video game series of all time, “Fallout” is the story of haves and have-nots in a world in which there’s almost nothing left to have…

“200 years after the apocalypse, the gentle denizens of luxury fallout shelters are forced to return to the irradiated hellscape their ancestors left behind — and are shocked to discover an incredibly complex, gleefully weird and highly violent universe waiting for them.”

The cast includes Ella Purnell (“Yellowjackets”), Kyle MacLachlan (“Twin Peaks”), Aaron Moten, Walton Goggins and more. All episodes of Season 1 are streaming on Prime Video.

The “Fallout” TV series comes from Amazon Studios, Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy’s Kilter Films, and Bethesda Game Studios and Bethesda Softworks.
