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.

OK, it’s a tough call to reinvent yourself afresh after 30 years, but this is a definite case of Could Try Harder. Not a totally horror show – just a bit of a snore.

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.

It does just fine throughout as far as establishing a typical narrative for one of these films... but with a finale that crashes & burns this badly, there's not really much that can be done to repair the damage.

… instead of burning it down, it’s all sound and fury, signifying nothing as “First Cool Hive” by Moby plays in the background.

I mean it’s a Scream movie so it’s kinda good. The story line made sense but towards the end everything just went off the rails. I love Scream so it really hurts me to say this but I do not recommend this movie. 😔😢
