Director Wes Craven’s 1996 horror movie hit Scream has a new instalment.
Directed this time by Matt Bettinelli-Olpinand Tyler Gillett, Scream 2022 sees the return of Courtney Cox, Neve Campbell and David Arquette, along with new faces including Jenna Ortega and Marley Shelton.
This new story has Sidney Prescott (Campbell), one of the survivors of the original Scream movies returning to her home town; a place where a masked killer has been committing a fresh batch of vicious crimes.
Scream is one of the movies that made me realise that slasher horror films are the kind of scary movies that don’t give me nightmares. As such, I’m watching this, in part for the nostalgia and to find out if this too feels as ‘made for me‘ as the original.
I plan to get happily lost in the story, and hopefully not end up missing all the great characters in the first film. Especially those played by Matthew Lillard, Skeet Ulrich and of course, Drew Barrymore, in th eperfect blond bob.
Will you be watching this new Scream movie, rewatching the 1996 Scream or both?
Melissa Barrera, Dylan Minnette, Jack Quaid, Jasmin Savoy Brown, Sonia Ammar, Mikey Madison, Mason Gooding and Kyle Gallner also star.
Scream Release Dates: January 14th, 2022 (US & UK)…
Happy Film Loving

Hoping that this is still good without Wes Craven as director. I remember that great Barrymore hair cut! 😍
Let’s cross our fingers and toes. 🤓 🤞 I know it was certainly great to see Neve Campbell as Sidney Prescott again.
Loved the first one. I will watch this one for sure, but I always seem to get disappointed when horror movies try and “revisit” what was once good.
I know and fully understand your concerns. Though, in recent years I’ve decided that even if a sequel proves to be rubbish, I’ve decided to be happy that it reminded me of just how good the first one is, so I can rewatch it again. 😁 Positive spins help to get us through the most ‘challenging’ times, don’t they? 😁
Exactly. I will definitely tune in and hopefully will be pleasantly surprised.
Love this trailer.. I just am crossing my fingers it’s good.
It is a rather promising trailer
Fingers, toes and everything crossed! 😁🤞🤞
I won’t be watching these as this kind of horror isn’t for me. I like the parodies I’ve seen of them.
That’s understandable. This is oddly the only kind of horror I can watch.
