Description

In this episode, hosts Katherine Troyer and Toni Tresca continue exploring the franchise as they discuss the 1997 horror film Scream 2. 
Episode Highlights: We talk about the ways that this film cleverly asks us to consider "What happens next?" after a slasher film ends. In particular, we look at how the film develops the character of Cotton Weary and the importance of Sidney building a community after her tragedy. We also think about the ways that this film encourages us to think about those left behind in the wake of the deaths caused not just by the killers but also by the Final Girls. And Toni shares some juicy details about Craven and the ratings board. 
A Dose of Scholarship: While there is not a lot of scholarship specifically on Scream 2, we encourage you to go back and look at the scholarship we discussed in our episode of the original Scream film.
