Scream - Lead Up

The Mikes are starting their "Scream" Lead Up series with the original film. Mike Field loves this film and the Scream series as a whole; there's not much if anything he can find wrong with Wes Craven's original film. Mike Butler didn't quite "get it" when he was younger. It was a bit too meta for him and he wasn't as knowledgeable at the time about horror films. Now that he get's it, he still has the same big issue...Billy Loomis. They discuss facts about it's production, how it plays with horror tropes, why Ghostface is a great killer, and what makes "Scream" one of the seminal horror films of all time.

So join the Mikes as the go through each film in the "Scream" saga leading up to the release of "Scream 7".

Which "Scream" are you looking forward to us discussing the most? Let us know in the comments!

About the Podcast

Forgotten Cinema
A podcast about forgotten films that deserve a second chance
Welcome to Forgotten Cinema! Each episode, Mike Field and Mike Butler highlight a film that for a variety of reasons was forgotten by audiences. Whether it be because a more popular movie was released at the same time or the movie simply didn’t catch on with an audience in the its initial run. We’ll discuss what we love about the movie or perhaps don’t love about it and decide whether the movie is worth a revisit.
