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.

If there’s a single witty idea in the entire two-hour slog, I missed it.

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

2.5/ 5

This film is caught between self-awareness and self-indulgence. It understands its past intimately but struggles to ask why revisiting it still matters.

2.5/5

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.

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.

The movie felt thrown together and needed more, the random killers was like a slap in the face to fans. Didn’t feel like a scream movie

I will say it was a great movie, it really brought the 80s and 90s slasher horror movie feeling back again, Kevin Williamson did a great job and Wes Craven would be extremely proud
