      I am a HUGE Scream fan and loved the last movie but you wouldn’t catch me dead at this one. Fuck them!

      I mean I was gonna boycott it anyway due to it being “Scream 7”, but this is heartening to see regardless.

      Scream is my favorite horror franchise. I was so excited when Scream 6 came out and I loved it! And the “core 4” cast were wonderful together. Melissa’s character of course was a stand out too.

      The moment I heard she was fired I lost all interest in a scream seven. They simply should not have made it. Also *love* how they had money for Neve Campbell once they trashed the main cast but couldn’t find it for Scream 6. Not that she would have had a big role in it but still

      It’s crazy how they took what should be a sure thing (a Scream movie starring Neve Campbell and directed by Kevin Williamson) and turned it into something I have no interest in ever seeing

      Nicely done! They fired Melissa when she had the correct position, lost Jenna as a consequence, thought that bringing back Neve would help. But it’s a boycott everyday all day for what they did. If you have to watch it, then pirate it. But don’t give them your money.
