What to Know

Critics Consensus

Less a return to Scream's roots than a disappointing creative regression, this seventh entry draws little blood with its dull knife of a script.

Audience Says

Ghostface remains a reliable thrill, giving fans of the franchise much to relish in Scream 7, even if some plot beats feel comfortably familiar.

Scream 7 lacks any semblance of its energy on either the horror or the comedy side of things. It’s not scary, and it’s not that funny. I wish some studio executive had the bravery to kill the franchise. Be sure to shoot it in the head. Go to Full Review

There just isn’t that much meta commentary you can supply for horror franchises this deep into their existence, except that they mostly suck. Go to Full Review

I’d also possibly argue that this franchise has now exhausted its own mythology to the point that there’s really no way it can continue without feeling so contrived that it starts to undermine and pollute its legacy. Go to Full Review
Terry Staunton Radio Times 4d
3/5
Represents a kind of homecoming, with the return of both the franchise’s most enduring heroine and the man who created the whole business 30 years ago contributing hugely to a horror that’s by no means perfect but isn’t short on pizzazz. Go to Full Review
Ian Bunting Daily Record (UK) Mar 16
This seventh instalment cuts a flawed-but-fearsome figure with gruesome kills, neat nostalgia for the original and Campbell reclaiming her scream queen throne. Go to Full Review

Anthony 1h I walked out 15 minutes into the movie See more Scream Mega Fan 7h The first bad Scream movie. A stain on its legacy with almost nothing of redeeming value. See more Christopher 1d Great sequel excellent film but there were some unnecessary moments that were not needed. All in all 8 out of 10 See more Martin 2d The movie dishonored the franchise. Terrible! See more Sandy 2d It was pretty good. Storyline became what the public wants now which is AI a Green Screens. It held true to the Obsession parts of the story. Great action and gore. See more Lorenz L 2d the storyline was so basic and it really didn't exist and it was too easy to call out... scream 6 was much better surprisingly See more Read all reviews
