Description
In this episode, hosts Katherine Troyer and Toni Tresca begin their foray into the Scream franchise as they discuss the 1996 horror film Scream.
Episode Highlights: Essentially, we talk about the perfection of this film (Katherine gives it a 150 out of 100). We explore how Scream exists as a great horror film in its own right even as it offers important commentary and perspective on the genre. We look at the film's use of comedy; we examine how the film asks us to consider issues of privilege and consumption, and--of course--we spend some time thinking about final girls.
A Dose of Scholarship: We discuss Valerie Wee's article "The Scream Trilogy, 'Hyperpostmodernism,' and the Late Nineties Teen Slasher Film" and Fran Pheasant-Kelly's essay “Reframing Parody and Intertextuality in Scream” in the edited collection Style and Form in the Hollywood Slasher.
