Preface
- Scream being my favorite horror movie, I was pleased to hear that it was coming back in a way in which I get to see more of it each week.
- But I was also cautious that it was airing on MTV, and that they were bringing in a new Ghostface and…
- Well it’s essentially a reboot at this point.
- But nevertheless, I was cautiously optimistic going in and I thought was… Well it was okay.
- There are aspects of this show that work so far, there are aspects that don’t, which makes it hard to just review a premiere episode but I’ll touch on some stuff that I want them to do over the course of the season and say that there are some things that are deal-breakers, others that aren’t.
Premise
- So the rebooted TV Scream Series follows a new motley crew of super attractive early 20-somethings playing teenagers (hey, just like the real Scream!) and there’s a new Ghostface on the loose slashing people up.
- There’s also ties to an older murder case in the town, and a whole lot of other slimy and shady stuff going on with the characters.
- And the characters are supposed to be the driving point of this show.
