Scream 3 (2000) | Episode #66

In this episode, hosts Katherine Troyer and Toni Tresca continue their foray into the franchise as they discuss the 2000 horror film Scream 3. 

Episode Highlights: We explore how the film's decision to move to Hollywood complicates the film greatly. One the one hand, it gives us an awesome scene (when Sidney is being chased by Ghost Face in the film set version of the house) and allows us to consider what is 'real'; on the other hand, it makes it harder for the audience to connect/relate to this strange and foreign world of Tinsel Town. And of course by moving the story to Hollywood, Craven can return to one of his favorite monsters: the industry itself. We talk about our feelings about Scream 3's Ghost Face Killer and share what we enjoyed from this film and what we would have liked to have seen. 

A Dose of Scholarship: While there is not a lot of scholarship specifically on Scream 3, we encourage you to go back and look at the scholarship we discussed in our episode of the original Scream film.
