Episode 064 - Nancy Anne Ridder & The Bathroom Girls Aug 09, 2022

Show notes

"You are pathetic!" This week Ryan hosts actress Nancy Anne Ridder for a discussion about her work in the original film. Ridder portrayed the Girl in Bathroom in Scream (1996). Despite having about 60 seconds of screentime, her scene with Leonora Scelfo as the cheerleader has gone down in history books as iconic. Nancy shares stories from the set, working with Wes Craven in her scene and as a body double for screen tests, and filming the original film in Santa Rosa. Ryan psycho-analyzes the Girl in Bathroom, the cheerleader, and how the scene has impacted him as a gay man. There is a brief reunion between Ridder and Scelfo at the beginning of the episode with Ryan. Also, Josh from Scream Queens Podcast joins Ryan for a brief introduction.

Show notes

This week, six Patreons join Ryan in the introduction to discuss the leaked "Scream 6" title, as "Scream II" or "Scream !!" Additionally, the group weighs in on the "Scream 6" casting of Samara Weaving of Radio's Silences "Ready or Not." For the main episode, Ryan hosts Sasha Stone as a featured guest. Sasha runs the website AwardsDaily.com, which is the awards show/film website where Ryan was first published and began his career as a film content creator. In this episode, Ryan and Sasha reflect on their relationship, Film Twitter, and old-school horror films like "The Shining" and "Rosemary's Baby." Most importantly, Sasha wrote, narrated, and appeared in "The Summer of the Shark," a visual essay about "Jaws" in Netflix's "Voir." Sasha's work about "Jaws" is similar in spirit to Ryan's deep connection with "Scream" -- different generation, same experience. Sasha shared a story about a real-life experience with none other than our queen, Neve Campbell. Sasha also weighs in about Neve/Scream 6, as someone with knowledge of the industry and who is outside the Scream bubble.

Episode 060 - News on Kirby & Ghostface Killers: Roman Bridger Jul 12, 2022

Show notes

"I'm a director, Sid. I direct. You're going to pay for the life you stole from me, Sid. For the mother, for the family – everything you had should have been mine." Roman Bridger was revealed as the mastermind who helped put into motion the events of the original trilogy as well as being the franchise's only killer who worked alone in a film. He has a divisive reputation among fans – his fanbase is enormous, but Roman is also cited by people who criticize "Scream 3" as a flawed killer. Join Ryan and guest Alice Ardent to discuss the legacy of Roman Briger and Scott Foley's commanding performance. Additionally, join Ryan, Joey, and Justin in an introduction on Hayden Panettiere's interview with People Magazine about her return to the franchise, Courteney Cox's first set appearance on "Scream 6," and Neve Campbell's denial of rumors about future involvement in the next film.
