Not Neve Campbell and Kevin Williamson thinking they were making the best Scream sequel, one that was gonna be extremely character driven and focus on the whodunnit elements of the saga mainly, to have been part of the blandest piece of shit there ever was. 🤦🏽‍♂️

The biggest sin this book has made thus far was addressing the whole Melissa Barrera firing so superficially. The way the author also tries to paint the cast of 5 and 6 as this big happy family that was okay with the way things went down… nope, nope, nope.

Scream 5 and 6 are sooooo good! I am so glad the author dedicated so many chapters to them.

Oh, man… learning that Hayden Panettiere celebrated her 21st birthday while filming Scream 4 was such a bittersweet highlight of this chunk I listened to today.

Also, this being Wes Craven’s last film in the franchise was a punch to the gut. I miss his genius.

I am not surprised they treated Melissa Barrera that way when you look back at how the first photography director got fired.

Rose McGowan really accomplished her goal in making us fall in love with Tatum and grieve her death for DECADES.

I LOVE hearing all these behind-the-scenes tidbits. 💕
