However the best character is that of the film itself, easily surpassing them all as a surprising and very welcome franchise addition - in losing the humour, it gains a sense of brutality only hinted at in the last entry and notably absent in the Craven-directed films. Together with an increased emphasis on the construction of the set-pieces - here, more elaborate and brilliantly put together in terms of geography, tension and tone - the film becomes a terrifying beast, the audience feeling every vicious thrust of the blades that are so lovingly and gorily depicted. The kills are outstanding - from a fantastic opener that cleverly about faces so many of the genre's tropes to the horribly tense apartment escape that sees a ladder put to hair-raising use and on to the subway-set hiding in plain sight of so, so many Ghostface’s - the directors have taken much from Scream 2 here, but this increased focus on the gruesome death scenes is by far the most important. Being a fan of the entire franchise and of the last two entries in the series, I am most definitely walking into Scream VI with a strong favorable bias. But that is par for the course in any franchise, particularly in the horror genre. And frankly, that appears to be the whole point of this delightfully entertaining and surprisingly contemplative fifth sequel where the survivors of the previous movie must now confront the psychological trauma of those events along with facing a new Ghostface killer. In fact, the filmmakers essentially open the film by showing two reactionary extremes to that trauma in the Carpenter sisters, Sam (Melissa Barrera) and Tara (Jenna Ortega). While one sister prefers to ignore, disregard and refuse to deal with what happened, the other sister copes by becoming overly protective and exceedingly vigilant, seeing danger in every situation. Thankfully, the directors don't clumsily announce this with a heavy hand, but it's the poignantly subtle running theme that informs each character's choices and perspective on their current situation. We should get it out of the way that franchise regular (and possibly favorite?) Sidney Prescott (Neve Campbell) isn’t in this film. Campbell let it be known that she didn’t like the offer she was given to appear in this film, so she declined. While I certainly wish she was here, these last two films have been more focused on the other characters. Sidney is at least mentioned, so that’s nice. A lot was said about this being the goriest entry in the Scream series. I wouldn’t try to debate that as there is quite a bit of blood and violence here. We catch up with Sam (Melissa Barrera) who has relocated to New York City where she keeps a too watchful eye on her half-sister, Tara (Jenna Ortega). It is understandable to some degree seeing as how they just suffered the loss of many, but it’s also normal for Tara to want to return to normalcy. We get much of the returning cast from the previous entry, and this includes franchise regular, Gale Cunningham (Courtney Cox). Also showing up here is Kirby (Hayden Panettiere) who was presumed dead in the 4 th film. Well, to be fair, her fate was a bit ambiguous and she’s now working for the F.B.I. We see in the opening sequence that Ghostface is still very much active. There are some nifty surprises early in the film. It throws a curveball or two at us, but then things slow down a good bit. And there lies one of my issues with Scream VI. I just don’t care about these characters as much as I did in at least the first two films. You could argue part 3 to some degree, but this just feels a bit too self-referential that it became tedious and annoying after a while.If you're in the US, you can watch Scream right now by buying or renting it from the likes of Prime Video and iTunes, among other digital retailers. Much has been made of this being a new kind of Ghostface, seemingly confirmed by the divisive use of a shotgun as seen in the trailers. You'd think it was just a marketing ploy, but the excellent cold open to Scream 6 will make you think otherwise. It also includes subtitles in English (English and HOH), German, Spanish (Spanish and Latin American), French (French and Canadian), Italian, Japanese and Dutch. The horror sequel sees Sam and Tara Carpenter attempt to move on with their lives after the bloody events in Woodsboro. However, as is always the case, Ghostface is never far behind and they're soon fighting for their lives again.

Where Scream 6 excels is in its set pieces. With the new sandbox to play in, we get an unpredictable subway ride (with our heroes split over two trains) and a tense stalk-and-shoot in a bodega. The standout, however, is Gale's showdown with Ghostface, giving Courteney Cox the best sequence she's had in a Scream movie in some time. The move to the Big Apple (it's the first time a Scream film doesn't take place in California or Ohio) highlights another departure from the first five chapters, as Neve Campbell won't be returning in the role of Sidney Prescott.

Working from a digital capture at a 3.4K resolution, it’s likely the theatrical digital intermediate (DI) is the same one used for the basis of this release. The disc (and its only a single disc, no 1080p disc is included in this set) houses a likely upscaled 3840 x 2160p resolution image in a theatrically accurate 2.39:1 aspect ratio that also utilises 10-bit video depth, WCG and both main HDR grades (HDR10 and Dolby Vision), all of which has been encoded using the HEVC/H.265 video codec.Scream 6 — or, officially, Scream VI — arrives in cinemas a little over a year after 2022's Scream and presents an altogether different challenge.
