Ghostface is back to terrorize audiences in the latest entry in the "Scream" movie franchise. Like the original film, the new movie is simply titled "Scream," but it's still a sequel rather than a reboot.
"Scream" (2022) is now streaming on Paramount Plus ($5/month). You can also buy the horror flick for $20 or rent it for as little as $5 from streaming retailers like Vudu and Amazon.
The fifth movie in the franchise takes us back to where it all started 25 years ago: the fictional town of Woodsboro, California. Ghostface has returned, and the mysterious killer's arrival unites a new cast of characters played by Jenna Ortega, Melissa Barrera, Kyle Gallner, Mikey Madison, and Jack Quaid. Some familiar faces also show up, including Courteney Cox, David Arquette, and Neve Campbell.
