Finally saw this after it dropped on Paramount+ and congrats to Scream 3, you aren't the worst anymore! You are spot on, this is not only the worst Scream movie, but the first truly awful one at that. Neve's acting was good, and I'm glad she got her bag, but Sydney was such a moron in this movie. Really, she would run miles to her store instead of going back to get her car keys? Then not call the cops when she knew the location Ghostface & her daughter were at? Easily the worst crop of newbies of the franchise, Tatum included. Not counting Jimmy Tatra & the 1923 actress in the teaser (the best scene in the movie by far), only Anna Camp's son popped. I watched the movie yesterday & can't recall a single charterer trait of any of the other teens. I liked Chad & Mindy in the previous 2 and hoped they'd take a more prominent role with the sisters gone, but they were just tacked on (I guess to appease younger fans of 5&6). Having Joel McHale as Sydney's humorless husband was an odd choice, it would have worked better if he & Mark C switched roles. The Ghostface reveals made Scream 6's look genius by comparison. Ranking the franchise in tiers I'd go: Tier 1: 1,2,4 Tier 2: 5,6 Tier 3: 3 7 "deserves" its own tier below Scream 3. Glad to see there's going to be a new team for Scream 8, I hope for a return to form.
