EP. 258 — Scream (Re-release)

In honor of Scream VI’s release in theaters this weekend, we’re re-releasing last year’s discussion of the original Scream – tomorrow we’ll be back with a brand new episode!

Paul & Amy don’t follow the rules for 1996’s Wes Craven meta-horror-comedy Scream! They learn Craven’s secret to making horror films that resonate, argue that the iconic Ghostface mask works better than a more distinctive look, and unpack the archetype of the “Final Girl.” Plus: Henry Winkler and the movie’s best in-joke.
