About this listen
From entertainment journalist Ashley Cullins, the definitive story of the Scream movie franchise, with more than eighty exclusive interviews from key players and an in-depth exploration of the creation and legacy of the films that revived a dying genre
It has been more than three decades since Drew Barrymore’s iconic scream first pierced through the night, Scream is as popular today as ever before.
In Your Favorite Scary Movie, journalist Ashley Cullins examines the legacy and making of the Scream films with behind-the-scenes insight from cast, creators, and crew, as well as sharp analysis on how the movies’ special blend of gruesome violence and humorous self-awareness rewrote the horror playbook. This intimate and thorough history tells the complete story of Scream with brand-new interviews from Neve Campbell, Courteney Cox, David Arquette, Kevin Williamson, Skeet Ulrich, Matthew Lillard, Jack Quaid, Parker Posey, Hayden Panettiere, Jasmin Savoy Brown, Mason Gooding, Radio Silence, Roger Jackson, and so many more.
Perfect for fans of Scream, horror lovers, and cinephiles, this is the story of how a little movie about a ghost-faced killer terrorizing high schoolers overcame countless obstacles to become an historic success that still has audiences screaming to this day.
