The horror genre has been experiencing a renaissance for years, and it’s been a joy for fans like me. Some of the best horror movies returned to theaters with new sequels, including Wes Craven’s “Scream.” The seventh movie will be in theaters shortly, and is one of the most highly anticipated upcoming horror movies of the year. “Scream 7” will be directed by Kevin Williamson, who wrote the first few movies. And he just revealed a major change to the franchise as a whole that I’m not really loving. What we know about “Scream 7” is limited, likely in order to guard its twists against spoilers. Neve Campbell is returning as Sidney Prescott, after being noticeably absent from the last movie (which is streaming with a Paramount+ subscription). In an interview with Empire Magazine (via our sister site Games Radar+), Williamson revealed a huge change to the property: the new movie apparently won’t have the typical meta commentary on the horror genre.
