‘Scream 7’ Streams on Paramount+ Next Week
Fear hits home when Scream 7 arrives on Paramount+ next Thursday, May 28.
The franchise’s highest grossing entry joins the first six installments in the slasher saga on the streamer, along with behind-the-scenes extras.
Kevin Williamson (writer of Scream, Scream 2, and Scream 4) directs from a script he co-wrote with Guy Busick (Scream 2022, Scream VI).
“When a new Ghostface killer emerges in the quiet town where Sidney Prescott has built a new life, her darkest fears are realized as her daughter becomes the next target. Determined to protect her family, Sidney must face the horrors of her past to put an end to the bloodshed once and for all.”
Neve Campbell returns alongside franchise veterans Courteney Cox, Matthew Lillard, David Arquette, Scott Foley, Mason Gooding, Jasmin Savoy Brown, and Roger L. Jackson.
Isabel May, Joel McHale, Mckenna Grace, Asa Germann, Celeste O’Connor, Sam Rechner, Anna Camp, Jimmy Tatro, Michelle Randolph, Ethan Embry, Timothy Simons, and Mark Consuelos round out the cast.
Meagan Navarro wrote in her review, “There are enough thrills and chills injected, at least until its abysmal finale, to signal that there’s a faintly beating pulse buried somewhere under the mess.”
Scream 7 will be released on physical media on June 16 via Paramount.
Are you ready to go back?
After a record-breaking box office run and an extended cut re-release, A24 and director Kane Parsons’ Backrooms is heading home to Digital.
Backrooms will be available to rent or buy this Tuesday, July 14.
In the film, Chiwetel Ejiofor stars in Backrooms as the owner of Cap’n Clark’s Ottoman Empire, who discovers a strange doorway in the basement of the furniture showroom. He sets out to explore the mysterious, liminal space, walking headfirst into a creepypasta nightmare.
Renate Reinsve (A Different Man) also stars in Backrooms.
Will Soodik wrote the screenplay.
I wrote in my review, “Backrooms is at once complex and sparse, but never repetitive. It might be set in 1990, but it effectively captures modern anxieties and isolation in a way that frequently makes your skin crawl. While the journey ultimately loses steam by its cryptic end, Parsons’ visual representation of the human psyche disturbs like no other.”
YouTube prodigy Kane Parsons makes his feature directorial debut based on his creepypasta-inspired video series, which debuted in 2022 and has amassed over 190 million views to date.
